Hiroshima: Hidden Gems and Highlights Private Walking Tour

Join a friendly guide to get an authentic experience of Hiroshima on a personalized tour of its highlights and hidden gems. Marvel at the city’s unknown history, fascinating culture, and fantastic food scene as you’re led down its liveliest streets, as well as those off the well-trodden tourist trail. You will be matched with a like-minded local host, who will be happy to create a personalized itinerary to your needs and requests. Begin your experience by taking a serene stroll through 400-year-old Shukkei-en, a tranquil Japanese garden and a survivor of the atomic bomb.

This was a brilliant tour, its really sad & thought provoking .The stories in museum that go with the artifacts are all heartbreaking. Our guide Naoya was excellent, he showed us all the places that related to the bomb & the stories that come with them. He even arranged with the staff for me to re-enter the museum for free after the tour finished as there was i few things i wanted to see . I would highly recommend this tour especially with Naoya as the guide to all my friends

Our tour of Hiroshima with Yuji was exceptional. Although a very sobering day, we were left with a good understanding of the events that took place and the recovery that the City has made. We enjoyed the visit to the Orizuru Tower and the lunch provided. Most of all, we appreciated the open and sensitive way Yuji narrated the day. We will remember the things he told us for a long time to come.

Yasue was an excellent tour guide with great knowledge about the history of Hiroshima. She was fantastic to chat with and made the experience very enjoyable. Would highly recommend Yasue as a guide.

Kaz was excellent. Really knowledgeable and a really nice guy. The tour was relaxed, but interesting. Top marks!

one of my favorite tours while ine Japan really informative.
