Itinerary

1
Stop 1
We will meet at your preferred location in Hiroshima City. Details will be arranged through email before the tour. The order of visiting Miyajima (Hatsukaichi City) and the Hiroshima city center will be adjusted flexibly based on your schedule, the weather, and any conditions on the day.
2
Stop 2
After a 40–50 minute drive, we will park near the ferry terminal and take a short 10‑minute ferry ride to Miyajima. Since the island has very limited parking and the roads are not ideal for cars, we do not cross to the island by vehicle.
3
Stop 3
As we walk toward Itsukushima Shrine, the iconic Great Torii gate gradually comes into view. You can enjoy the scenery and take photos as we approach.
4
Stop 4
We will then explore Itsukushima Shrine, Japan’s only shrine built over the water. As we walk through its elegant corridors, your guide will explain the history and features of the site, and you can enjoy taking photos or purchasing charms along the way.

Stop 5
Next, we will visit Daishoin Temple, one of the most beautiful and atmospheric places on Miyajima. The temple grounds are filled with colorful statues, peaceful pathways, and stunning views. This visit is optional—if you prefer to spend more time on other experiences, such as trying local food, shopping, or staying longer at the Peace Memorial Museum, we can easily adjust the plan to your interests.
6
Stop 6
Omotesando Shopping Street is a lively area filled with souvenir shops, restaurants, and plenty of delicious street‑food options. Some guests prefer to enjoy the local snacks while walking, while others choose to sit down for a meal such as oysters or Hiroshima‑style okonomiyaki. If you prefer a restaurant lunch, we can discuss it on the tour day, as we may need to adjust the schedule depending on your available time in Hiroshima and restaurant crowd levels.
7
Stop 7
We will take the ferry back to the mainland, with the ferry ride and drive taking roughly one hour in total, before arriving in Hiroshima City. After parking the car nearby, our walking tour will begin at the Hiroshima A‑bomb Hypocenter.

At the Atomic Bomb Dome, we will spend some quiet time reflecting on Hiroshima’s history and the significance of this landmark.
9
Stop 9
Your guide will share the stories and meaning behind the memorials and monuments as we walk through Peace Memorial Park together.
10
Stop 10
Our final stop will be the Peace Memorial Museum, a quiet and reflective space where conversations are kept to a minimum. Since all exhibits are displayed in both Japanese and English, you will explore the museum on your own after I scan the QR code of the ticket I have reserved for you at the entrance. If you prefer an audio guide in another language, I can assist you in renting one. (Audio guides are not included in the tour price.)
11
Stop 11
The tour will generally end at the location of your choice. If you prefer, you may end the tour at the museum and return to your hotel on your own by taxi or other transportation.
