Hiroshima & Miyajima : Privétour van een hele dag met een lokale Gids
Beschrijving
Een privétour van een hele dag door Hiroshima en Miyajima, begeleid door een local met meer dan 20 jaar ervaring in de stad. Deze 8 uur durende tour biedt een duidelijke introductie tot de geschiedenis en vredesboodschap van Hiroshima, gevolgd door tijd op Miyajima Island in een ontspannen, flexibel tempo. We beginnen bij Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, waar ik historische achtergrond en lokale perspectieven op het verleden en herstel van de stad deel. Na een lunchpauze met lokale Hiroshima gerechten zoals okonomiyaki, met vegetarische en glutenvrije opties, reizen we naar Miyajima Island om Itsukushima Shrine, de iconische “drijvende” torii poort, en rustigere delen van het eiland te bezoeken. De route staat niet vast. Timing, volgorde en tempo worden aangepast op basis van uw interesses, energieniveau, weer en het getij. Afhankelijk van de omstandigheden kunnen we de dag op Miyajima beginnen om de torii-poort bij hoog water te zien. Deze tour is ideaal voor reizigers die een zinvolle, drukke dag willen zonder zich gehaast te voelen.

We had a very nice, educational, intensive day. On Miyajima Alex managed to guide us past the large groups of tourists and stand still in quiet beautiful photo spots. In the Peace memorial park he has led us through many places that you would otherwise overlook or not step inside. It was precisely the story that made it interesting for our teenagers.
We just finished our private tour of Miyajima and Hiroshima with Alex, and it was by far the best tour we have taken during our time in Japan. Alex was incredibly intentional with every part of the day. Nothing felt rushed, generic, or like he was simply moving us from one stop to the next. He clearly cared about making the experience meaningful for us. I learned so much about Hiroshima, but more importantly, Alex helped us understand the human side of its history in a way that was thoughtful, respectful, and deeply moving. Miyajima was beautiful, and the entire day was balanced perfectly between history, culture, reflection, and enjoying the experience together. Alex was also fantastic with the 12-year-old in our group. He kept her engaged, included her in the conversation, and made sure the tour was meaningful and enjoyable for everyone, not just the adults. This was much more than a sightseeing tour. It was one of the most memorable and meaningful days of our entire trip. Alex is an exceptional guide, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Thank you for such a wonderful review. It was a lot of fun spending the day with the three of you. Looking back, I think we made some great choices that day. Visiting Daishoin early, before it filled with people, gave the temple such a peaceful atmosphere. The boat ride back across the bay is still one of my favourite ways to return to Hiroshima, and I'm glad we had time to enjoy a relaxed lunch together as well. I especially appreciated how interested you were in Hiroshima's story. Those conversations are what make each tour different, and they stay with me long after the day is over. And I'm really happy to hear Chloe enjoyed herself too. She asked some great questions and was a joy to have along. Thank you again, and I hope Japan has left you with many more great memories.
We did this one day Hiroshima and Miyajima private tour with Alex Hirotours. We had one of the best tour experience in Japan. Alex knowledge is undoubtedly very comprehensive also heightening the human element of this event. If you want a true and meaningful experience in Hiroshima this is the tour for you. Highly recommend and thank you Alex for this great experience
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. One of the things I'll remember most is our conversations throughout the day, especially hearing about your family's connection with Japan across three generations. And hearing how your father was moved by the photographs in the Peace Museum made a real impression on me. Moments like that remind me why Hiroshima's story continues to matter. Thank you for your genuine interest, and for sharing the day with me. Please take good care, and I hope our paths cross again someday.
We had an amazing day with Alex. He was so friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable, making us feel welcome from the very start. He shared the history of Hiroshima with great care and helped us discover the beauty of Miyajima at a relaxed pace. It felt like spending the day with a local friend rather than being on a tour. Thank you, Alex, for making our visit so memorable. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We were lucky with the timing—the rain waited until after our tour, and Miyajima looked beautiful with the deer wandering around the torii gate. Those are the little moments that make the island so special. Thanks again for spending the day with me, and I wish you all the best!
A super enthusiastic guide who spent a whole day passionately telling us about the sights. The chosen lunch spot was also top notch. Learned a lot about the region. Definitely worth it!
Hartelijk dank dat jullie de tijd hebben genomen om jullie ervaring te delen. Dat waardeer ik enorm! Het was zeker een warme zomerdag, maar ik ben blij dat jullie ondanks de hitte zo hebben genoten van Hiroshima en meer hebben kunnen leren over de geschiedenis van de stad. Leuk om te horen dat de Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki ook in de smaak viel. Het is een van mijn favoriete lunchplekjes, niet alleen vanwege het heerlijke eten, maar ook door het mooie uitzicht. Nogmaals bedankt voor jullie mooie woorden. Ik hoop dat jullie met veel fijne herinneringen aan Hiroshima en Japan terugkijken op deze reis!
We had the perfect day in Hiroshima with our guide Alex. We started off at Miyajima. Despite the hundreds of tourists pouring into the island every hour, Alex knows all the hidden treasures, and we were often the only tourists as we visited beautiful hidden passages between the main attractions. We enjoyed an amazing okonomiyaki lunch together, which Alex kindly ensured met our dietary standards. From there we progressed to the Peace Memorial, including visiting a hidden gem of a museum that was among the highlights of our time in Japan. Alex's professionalism and expertise was apparent throughout the entire tour, and we strongly recommend him as a guide for anyone visiting Hiroshima.
Thanks so much for taking the time to write such a great review. I really appreciate it. I enjoyed showing the both of you some of the quieter corners of Miyajima. Especially on busy days, it's nice to step away from the crowds and experience a different side of the island. I'm glad you appreciated that too. I'm also happy you enjoyed the okonomiyaki restaurant. The food, the setting, and the vegetarian options make it one of my favorite lunch spots. Thanks again for your kindness and for the thoughtful gifts. Wishing the both of you all the best back home, and I hope our paths cross again one day!
We spent the day with Alexander Kranenburg. He was knowledgeable, friendly and helped us manage the heat in July. Hiroshima is an emotional and definitely worth visiting. We would highly recommend a tour either him.
Thank you so much for your kind review! It was a pleasure spending the day with you all. Yes, it was certainly a hot one, but I'm glad we still managed to see so much—from Miyajima and its beautiful shrine and temple to the Peace Memorial Park. I was also happy to see everyone enjoyed the okonomiyaki! Thank you for the great conversations throughout the day, and I wish you all the best. Alex
This was great experience for us. Historic places you learn a lot when you are guided by your guide. Alex was great local guide who was right on time at the hotel. His knowledge was great about Hiroshima and also about the world. This was great activity for me and for my family since we wanted to visit Hiroshima and no doubt Alex made it even more pleasant visit for us with his knowledge and easy going manners.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a real pleasure spending the day with you and your family. I'm glad we started at the Peace Memorial Park and Museum before heading to Miyajima—it worked out really well, and I'm happy we found a lunch spot that everyone enjoyed before visiting the shrine. Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate them, and I hope you've all settled back home with many great memories of Japan. All the best to you and your family! Alex
