• Nagasaki half day Peace museum and local area

  This is a recommended activity for anyone interested in looking at a range of sights in Nagasaki. As it is a half day you will choose from a set of offerings. We chose the Peace museum and the Peace Park (areas with remnants and statues to the bomb), cable car and then walk through Chinatown where we had lunch to finish. As it was nearby we also walked through the oldest shopping street to spectacle bridge- named as such for the reflection it makes on the water. Our guide was the wonderful and informative Yoshi-san. In between the destinations and while walking through them, we had a constant stream of information and question and answers so we learnt a number of things along the way. Highlights at the park are ground zero above where the bomb exploded, the remnants of a Christian church, a range of sculptures donated by various countries, a cross section of what the ground actually looked like after the blast and the small bomb shelters people dug out of the ground for protection. At the start of the museum walk you are confronted with an actual clock that stopped at 11:02. It somewhat sets the tone for what follows. At the end, where there are accounts from survivors, you will see a photo now famed as “The boy from Nagasaki”. It is a poignant ending to the whole display…do research the story if you are not familiar with it. The cable car ride is a worthy addition as you get to see all of Nagasaki and the landmarks you previously walked through. In order to move quickly through the destinations we choose to travel by taxi …about yen 1400 each trip. Lunch in Chinatown was a recommendation from Yoshi-san for one of the local specialities - Champon and Sara Udon. Both are a chinese-style noodle served in a rich, creamy broth - one in soup and one with crispy noodles. After lunch we walked through the oldest shopping street and then to spectacle bridge. We did this in early June so rain weather can be a factor - we were fortunate to have a warm day, although it rained the next. As we had also done the Hiroshima tour it was still an appreciated difference…noting that there as are way less tourists as I think most just go for the Hiroshima trip.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Half day tour Nagasaki

  Our tour experience was led by Yoshi. She was professional, knowledgeable and fun. She was also very patient. Our visit to the Atomic Museum was longer than any of us anticipated. There is so much information, photos and personal testimony, I could have stayed longer. What we appreciate about having a local guide is the stories which set the context. Yoshi talked of people she knew who were survivors. The challenges after the bombing. She took us outside to Nagasaki Peace park - showed us places (the bomb shelter holes) that we would have missed had she not been with us. She explained the history of Nagasaki. Even took us to the sculpture in the park donated by the government of Aotearoa. We then headed to Inasa-yama ropeway. Again she explained various landmarks, associated histories and random facts. Lastly she guided us to a restaurant in China town to try Champon and sara-udon. Delicious!!! She also directed us toward local landmarks (Megane-bashi). This was incredible value for a half day tour. It was longer than half a day really. I think this tour is worth doing for all the reasons mentioned above.

  We had a very interesting and sobering visit to Nagasaki today. Rikako was our guide and she showed us many places of interest that we never would have found ourselves. The atomic bomb museum is a must for anyone that visits Nagasaki. It lays out in detail the truth of what happened at 11:02am on 9th August 1945. Rikako also shared with us some very moving stories about people in her family who experienced the bomb - the hibakusha. When then had some light refreshments at a delightful shop in the city centre. Thank you Rikako for a wonderful day.

  Our guide Junichi Matsumoto was very good. He texted us several times before the trip. Met us at the terminal and took us to many places we would not have found on our own.

  Our personal tour with Yoshi-san was amazing. Yoshi has a superior command of the English language, and is very generous allowing us to practice our Japanese with her. She has extensive knowledge of Nagasaki’s popular sights, and provided an educational and personal insight surrounding the events before and after the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. We are thankful for her expert guidance as well as her charming personality! Many thanks, Yoshi-san! Doug and Paulette

  Tour guide spoke very broken English, hard to understand her. Although she was very sweet, she also needed to speak up as it was hard to hear her. Her visual aids were very worn and torn and looked very unprofessional.

  Hiromi was a wonderful guide. She knew an amazing amount about Nagasaki, its history and traditions, as she had grown up there.
