Great way to see the sights of the three cities with lots of free time and not being locked into a 6 day tour with a large group. Tour Radar allowed us to customise our tour to suit our needs. Great hotels provided in good locations. Would definitely recommend.

The hotels were great and in the perfect locations, Taka and Shin were the best tour guides (very knowledgeable and engaging), definitely recommend! The e-bikes were a great way to explore Hiroshima.
