About
Experience Miyajima and Hiroshima on a fully private tour guided by Japanese local guides, including second-generation atomic bomb survivors, offering perspectives shaped by family history, cultural memory, and lived experience you won’t find in guidebooks. Begin your journey on Miyajima Island, home to the sacred Itsukushima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Discover its spiritual traditions, symbolism, and timeless beauty while enjoying the island’s calm atmosphere and unhurried pace. Later, explore Hiroshima City, including the Atomic Bomb Dome and Peace Memorial Park and Museum. Your guide shares not only historical facts, but personal stories passed down through families—stories of loss, resilience, recovery, and hope. As a fully private tour, the itinerary is flexible and tailored to your interests, pace, and level of reflection. This experience is for travelers seeking more than sightseeing—an authentic, human understanding of Hiroshima and Miyajima.
