Full description
Discover Hiroshima and Miyajima Island on a fully customizable private tour. Choose what you would like to experience, what time you would like to start your tour, and the local partner will arrange a tour to suit you. Start your day by meeting your guide at your hotel, then choose to sites you wish to visit depending on your interests. Example 6-hour Itinerary: Meet your guide at your hotel in Hiroshima and first visit Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. See the Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall, known today as the Atomic Bomb Dome, which was one of the very few buildings that survived the atomic bombing of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. Today, the building serves as a memorial to the victims of the bombing, and as a symbol of international peace. Visit the onsite Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and learn more about the bombing. See poignant artifacts from the time of the atomic explosion on display, as well as various educational exhibits. Afterward, take the ferry to Miyajima island.

Our tour of Hiroshima and Miyajima Island could not have been made smoother or more interesting, thanks to our wonderful guide, Masa-san. Masa was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable local, who clearly loved this city and it's history and beauty. My friend and I met her in the morning and she helped us in trying to find a place to store our luggage for the day. Despite this inconvenience she was happy to lead us through the city and we didn't have to think about where we going as she led us through the public transportation. Miyajima itself was one of the most beautiful places I have EVER seen. Masa showed us the delicious food and the beautiful scenery with gusto, and told us stories and folklore of the island and Hiroshima with some real acting fun. Her kindness and thoughtfulness was truly a blessing. Arigatou gozaimasu again, Masa-san for the lovely day! Love Ericha and Rebecca

Yuji did an amazing job at showing me the sites, providing information and history of everywhere we went and was able to address any questions I had. after the tour was over Yuji also pointed out a few restaurants to me which were easier for foreigners with limited Japanese speaking ability to navigate.

We enjoyed this private tour a lot. It’s a really good split between the two parts of this private tour (Hiroshima and the atomic bomb memorial park incl. the museum as well as Miyajima island). Our guide Hiroshi was very knowledgeable and the perfect host for that day. Thank you very much!
