"Had an excellent day with Haq. We could have happily spent another day in Hiroshima. We had an injury in our group and i was concerned about the duration of the tour. Haq arranged a driver for us before we arrived which was much cheaper than taking taxis everywhere. It meant we could all stay together which I was grateful for. I loved how passionate Haq is about Hiroshima. He showed us that Hiroshima is so much more than that moment in 1945. The beauty of the area is astounding, and the optimism is inspiring. "

"We booked our tour with Awais more than 2 months ago and was delighted with the communication prior to today. I was confident we’d chosen an excellent tour guide and we did! Recognising how busy the museum was, we spent more than 2 hours in the park and surrounds learning about the terrible events of 1945, the respectful memorials and Hiroshima today. Awais knows his stuff and was super engaging. We’d highly recommend him for your time in Hiroshima. "

"We very much enjoyed Haq's tour of Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park. His insights into the meaning of every monument made the day so much richer. Haq's English is excellent and he was very responsive to all enquiries. His enthusiasm for Japan is genuine and contagious!"

"We spent the day with Haq, and it went by in an instant. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about so many aspects of Hiroshima, from the tragic to the historical and some pretty good food in between, he brings a caring for his clients that is exceptional. Our only regret is not having more time with him, and his kind personality made us wish he lived closer to our home because we would be friends without a doubt. "

"We enjoyed our tour with Haq. He made the tour of Peace Park interesting eventhough we could not get any trivia questions correct to win ice cream. Lol! He got through the tour in enough time for us to go through the museum. A few of us could not take seeing the images in the museum as it is not for everyone. I am glad we had a tour guide as we would have not understood any of the monuments or history. "

"We had a full day tour with Haq that was jam-packed as it included visiting Miyajima as well as the Memorial Park and museum. It was alot to cover but we only had one day and wanted to do it all. Haq was very knowledgeable but ensured that the subject matter was still accessible for our 10 year. Haq had alot of great anecdotes and made sure to include several stops with delicious snacks. We loved our time on the island. The second part was our time at the Memorial park which was very powerful. Haq used such care in explaining the different monuments and the stories attached to them. It is something my family will not forget."

" We had an extraordinary experience with Nabeel, and I truly cannot recommend him highly enough. We purchased concert tickets from StubHub in the U.S. (which, in hindsight, I would strongly advise against for events in Japan). In order to retrieve our tickets, we were required to register through a third-party Japanese website called TV Asahi and download them from there. The process was extremely complicated, entirely in Japanese, and phonetically challenging. Nabeel patiently registered all of us on the website — a very time-consuming process — and spent hours helping us navigate and attempt to download the tickets. He never rushed, never showed frustration, and remained calm, kind, and fully present the entire time. Unfortunately, two of us were not able to get into the concert. We had come for my son, and thankfully my husband was able to go in with him. Nabeel stayed with me, and what could have been a disappointing evening turned into something truly meaningful. We shared a meal and had a fascinating conversation about history, politics, religion, and culture. It ended up being one of the most memorable parts of our trip. Beyond that, Nabeel is incredibly knowledgeable about everything — where to find taxis, supermarkets, restaurants — and especially the Peace Tour in Hiroshima. It takes a very special person to guide something as heavy and monumental as the bombing of Hiroshima with such gentleness and thoughtfulness. He explained the history with care, nuance, and respect, offering balanced and compassionate perspectives. By the end of our time together, it honestly felt like we had gained a new family member. He has such a kind and thoughtful nature, and we felt supported every step of the way. If you have the opportunity to work with Nabeel, you will be in the very best hands."

"Awais provided a great tour of Hiroshima. It was definitely a sobering look at the destruction of the nuclear bombing and its lasting impact. Awais was very knowledgeable of the history and provided a great history lesson that focused on all aspects of this period in time."

"Haq made our afternoon in Hiroshima great and gave us a great private tour. He was extremely flexible and accommodating and figured out ways to make it a great tour despite holiday closures. He really made an effort to keep our daughter interested and engaged and overall added so much to the experience that we wouldn’t get just by walking around on our own. "

"Nabeel is personable, responsive and knowledgeable. My kids enjoyed his company and found him interesting and engaging. The walking tour had a nice variety of sights. Nabeel provided some great recommendations for restaurants and hidden gems (like Mitaki-dera) that helped us plan our remaining time in Hiroshima. We recommend!"
