Description

Konnichiwa (Hello) from Hiroshima! This tour covers all the must-see spots in Hiroshima in just one day, running from around 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM. We basically use public transportations (trains and ferry / NO private car), because we want you to enjoy the local lifestyle here. Led by a local guide with deep knowledge of Hiroshima’s history during the war, you’ll experience the authentic story firsthand. A highlight of the tour is Itsukushima Shrine, famous for its stunning torii gate that appears to float on the sea at high tide. This iconic shrine, deeply tied to Japan's Shinto tradition, is one of the country's most beautiful and renowned landmarks. In addition to visiting Hiroshima’s famous sites, we’ll take you to hidden local spots related to the atomic bombing that are known only to locals—places you won’t find on the internet. The tour is flexible and can be tailored to your preferences. If there are any other places you'd like to visit, just let us know at any time!

We had a great day with...

We had a great day with Tommy in Hiroshima. We were able to see a lot of the city and the island with very clear guidance and direction. The museum is interesting and also emotionally moving. Tommy was very accommodating in crafting the tour to our family interests. Well done Tommy. Thx for a great trip.

Hiroshima is a city with a powerful history, and we're glad the Peace Memorial Museum left a meaningful impression while also giving you the opportunity to experience the beauty and culture of the city. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Tommy, he'll be thrilled to hear them! Thank you again for choosing our tour.

An engaging and thorough tour of Hiroshima

Naomiさん is an excellent guide, who answered every one of my questions with an enthusiasm that made me want to learn more. Moreover, her connection with the locale made for a more personal experience at an okonomiyaki restaurant, one I will not soon forget!

Operator response

Thank you so much for coming to our IKIGAI Tour this time! We really appreciate every words that you wrote here for our guide Naomi-san. I hope you had a wonderful day in Hiroshima, and we are wishing your trip is going to be safe and amazing! Thank you so much, Arigatou!

Ok but not great

I have done several Viator tours but I felt this did not meet their standards. Did not go to any additional places like they said. We only went to the Dome, Museum and Island, no special places. I think it was expensive because you did have to pay for transportation. (bus, train, ferry)

Operator response

Thank you for joining our Hiroshima and Miyajima tour and for sharing your thoughts. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. Our goal is to provide not only visits to Hiroshima’s most important sites, such as the Atomic Bomb Dome, Peace Memorial Museum, and Miyajima Island, but also deeper historical context, local insights, and stories that many visitors would not discover on their own. However, we understand that you were hoping for additional physical locations beyond the main attractions, and we appreciate this feedback. Regarding transportation costs, our tour uses public transportation to provide an authentic local experience, and transportation fees are listed separately from the tour price. We understand, however, that this may have impacted your perception of the overall value. Feedback such as yours helps us better communicate what guests can expect before booking, and we will continue working to improve both our tour descriptions and guest experience. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you enjoyable travels ahead.

Perfect One Day in Hiroshima

We booked this tour for our day in port from the cruise ship. It was the perfect mix of activities, including a fantastic lunch between the Peace Park and the island. Tommy was a great guide and was flexible in letting us add a few stops and try some local foods. Fantastic day in Hiroshima.

Hiroshima at its best

The communicstion with the tour company leading up to the day of the tour was exceptional. We experienced delays on the day of the tour, our doing but the tour company went above and beyond to assist in connecting us with our tour guide, Rena. Rena was great in making sure everything was looked after before leaving on the tour, including lockers for our backpacks. Rena was a knowledgeable guide and because of our tardiness was flexible within the tour schedule by switching to cabs (our cost, our suggestion) instead of trains which shortened travel time. Found us a great restaurant for lunch and during our travels made suggestions that allowed us to sample Japanese cuisine. Would not hesitate in booking another tour with this company and would happily have Rena as a guide.

Operator response

Thank you so much for coming to IKIGAI Tour this time! We really appreciate every single words that you gave us. We are glad that you had an amazing day with our guide Rena. She is a wonderful local guide! I hope you will have a great time in Japan, and please come back to Hiroshima anytime again! Arigatou, thank you so much!

Great Guide

Our tour of Hiroshima was an unforgettable experience, thanks to our incredible guide, Yuta. He navigated the heavy history of the Atomic Bomb Dome and the Peace Memorial Park with immense grace and respect, providing deep historical context that brought the stories to life in a way a guidebook simply can't. ​What truly made the day special was that Yuta took us off the beaten path to some lesser-known, serene areas that were absolutely breathtaking. Seeing these quiet, beautiful spots away from the main tourist crowds provided the perfect space for reflection. If you want a guide who is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and knows the hidden gems of the city, we can't recommend Yuta enoug

Operator response

Thank you so much for coming to Hiroshima this time. We truly appreciate your words on the review! We are happy that you had a wonderful day with our guide Yuta-san. I hope you have a wonderful trip in Hiroshima. Arigatou gozaimasu, Thank you!
