Dive into Hiroshima's culture head-on! From must-see landmarks to secret spots, savor a full day of unforgettable exploration and adventures.
Here’s everything you need to know before your day unfolds.
A dark legacy may be what Hiroshima is infamously renowned for but this surprising Japanese city is also a friendly, picturesque paradise for foodies. You could wander through the Peace Memorial Park, with tribute memorials and often even several survivors on-site and willing to share their stories. You could also enjoy a ferry ride to Miyajima, just twenty minutes away and famed for its floating torii in the Seto Inland Sea. Here you can also visit the oldest temple in Miyajima or allow your tastebuds a little treat whilst relaxing with a traditional Japanese sweet set, including delicious flavors from the Momiji Manju you’ll just have to try for yourself (local specialty, perfect as an ‘omiyage’, or food souvenir).

Ken was a great guide in Hiroshima for an 8 hour tour of our family of 5 from Chicago with college/high school kids. He met us at the train station and had us move quickly to beat the crowds to the top of the mountain at Miyajima. He was a student in Long Beach California in his early 20s, worked at Disney and then got Disney Tokyo started in the early 80s. His Hiroshima parents were soldiers in WW2 - aged 20 and 14 - in 1945. The combination of those two things made his style very appealing to us. He improvised our day and took us to a garden and took great photos and videos of us in ideal spots. Ken is funny and kind and a free spirit with a fast-moving approach. He knows a lot of tricks about moving quickly and has a lot of knowledge - that you need to ask about - so it feels personal and not like a canned experience. He told us how to eat/ history of Hiroshima's okonomiyaki (pancake you eat with a spatula) and we went to a local, nontouristy place for one on recommendation of our hotel concierge and it was a peak experience of our trip.

Show moreKaorisan was very proactive in tailoring our ambitious itinerary to make the most of our time in Miyajima. We had a group of three (me 44 M and my aunt (79) and mom (77)) She was very kind and patient, especially with my mother who is not used to walk a ton and struggles with up hills and stairs. We would definitely recommend her as a guide to others.
Show moreKaorisan was very proactive in asking what we would like to do. Was not shy to tell us that my goals were ambitious and recommended a very suitable alternative. She was very kind and patient with my elderly mother who doesn’t walk so fast and struggles with stairs. We had a fantastic time in Miyajima! Thank you, Kaorisan!
