See Hiroshima like a local

On private walking tours of Hiroshima, we’ll give you an unforgettable experience of locals-only life – and the locals here happen to be some of the friendliest in Japan! From the Peace Memorial Park to the Atomic Bomb Dome, Hiroshima is filled with must-visit locations, but our private Hiroshima tours take you to places not even your guidebook knows about. Explore crowded local hangouts like the Hondori shopping arcade, experience neon-lit nightlife, and amazing food, or admire treasures that once belonged to samurai lords at Hiroshima Castle on our Hiroshima private tours.

Explore outside the city center

In the heart of Hiroshima, you won’t struggle to find countless tourist attractions with crowds gathered around them. But with our team of in-the-know local guides planning your private walking tours of Hiroshima, you’ll be able to get off the tourist trail and explore places rarely seen by visitors. Maritime must-sees like the Yamato Museum and the major shipbuilding city of Kure are just a quick train ride away, and with a local guide to do all the booking and planning for you, it should be easier than ever to have a unique experience of the city on our Hiroshima private tours.

Hungry in Hiroshima

On tours anywhere in Japan, the cuisine is a major attraction. But even in this gastronomic giant, Hiroshima private food tours stand out as something special. You might feel overwhelmed by the sheer selection of places to eat and foods to try, so having a local guide by your side on private Hiroshima tours will make all the difference. Try Hiroshima Okonomiyaki, the city’s version of the iconic “everything pancake”, fresh fish and oysters, and maple leaf-shaped cakes at hole-in-the-wall restaurants and tea houses that only locals know about on our Hiroshima private tours.

Latest reviews from our guests

Booking this tour was seamless. The host will confirm right after the booking is made and they don't make one tour crowded 1-4 persons. The Miyajima walking tour was an incredible blend of history and natural beauty. Every step revealed something fascinating, from the famous Torii Gate to the ancient temples surrounded by stunning scenery. What made it special was how the host personalized it for me, making sure I got to see what interested me the most. It was flexible, allowing me to take my time at each spot and really soak in the experience. This tour didn't just show me Miyajima; it made me feel connected to its stories and landscapes, leaving me with unforgettable memories.
