Meeting Point

JR Hiroshima Station or your hotel

The big gate ( O-Torii ) of Itsukushima Shrine is a symbol of Miyajima and very picturesque. Itsukushima Shrine was designated as World Heritaga Site in 1996 . The sets of structures perfectly harmonizes with its surroundings to create artistic masterpiece.

Daisho-in Temple is 5 minutes walk from Itsukushima Shrine. The whole temple is like a small adventure with something new hidden in places you would least expect.

Hiroshima Tour Reviews

A Most Pleasing Day

Azusa was a wonderful guide. Her pleasant personality was projected throughout the day. Her knowledge of the city, understanding of the history of Hiroshima was presented beautifully. She certainly takes care of her group, being attentive to all.

Michael A.

Dear Michael-san, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. You all are considerate and full of a great sense of humor. We enjoyed interacting with local students on the train. I am sure they had a memorable time like me. And it was nice to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom on the first sunny day in a long time. After all, cherry blossoms look good under warm sunny skies. I hope you will all continue your journey in good health while making many happy travel memories. Bon voyage! Azusa

Ms Azusa was wonderful. Full of energy, very enthusiastic and fluent in English. Appreciated the lunch reservation- Okonoyomiyaki, which is a Hiroshima special. In both the shrine on Miyajima and the Hiroshima museum, Azusa San stood in long ticket lines, while we had time to take pictures and explore the area briefly on our own. She was very conscientious of our time and allowed us to use it to the fullest. She addressed the history of Hiroshima with accuracy and grace, which was appreciated. We had a wonderful day chatting with Ms. Azsusa throughout the day and would highly recommend her as a guide.

Kesh  H.

Dear Kesh-san, I really appreciate your kind review. Your message encourages me so much. I was so happy to share a very enjoyable day with you all. You are very intelligent and caring family. Your questions about Japan have brought me many insights. It has been very inspiring for my work to talk to you. And your humor lightened the atmosphere. I will try to learn from you. You all are in good shape, so next time, please try climbing Mt Misen on Miyajima Island. The view of the Seto Inland Sea from the top is exceptional! I know you all are busy with your work, but please take care of yourselves. Thanks a lot. Azusa

Impactful and Insightful Tour with Exceptional Guide

We are grateful for the profound experience we had with Azusa. She was extremely knowledgeable and thoughtful in the way she shared the history of Hiroshima. If you’re planning a trip to Japan, this is an experience that you should prioritize including in your itinerary.

Charlie R.

Dear Charlie-san, Thank you so much for your wonderful message! The tour was very short, but we had a lot to talk about and spent a very happy time. It was so hot and humid day, but the brightness and liveliness of the two of you energized me. I hope this trip was enjoyable and memorable for you as well. Azusa
