Interesting tour! We were lucky to be able to access the island and were impressived what was available to the people who were living on this small island at that time including schools, gym and pool! Unfortunately, we only had a guidebook no real guide but well prepared including pictures.

Took a ferry ride out to Island was about 40 mins. Island was battered bit just recently by a typhoon and the jetty was destroyed , so unfortunately unable to land on Island. Is a deserted island full of buildings quite eerie. But recommend a ferry ride to go in see it whilst in Nagasaki. Very interesting.

We’re made aware that we were unable to land on the island. No English translator but we given and English information leaflets. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful and courteous. As no island landing we were allowed to visit to museum close to the landing jetty. Very interesting including virtual reality tours of the island. Fantastic afternoon
