Rabbit Island is home to hundreds of friendly bunnies who approach tourists for food. Once this island was secluded as a secret base of the Imperial Japanese Army to produce lethal gas during WW II. And because of the poison gas development, it is thought that the test subjects included rabbits. After the war, the island restored peace and got well overrun by bunnies to become a Heaven of rabbits. Please enjoy being mobbed by adorable creatures and the beautiful nature there.

“Exceptional Tour of Hiroshima ”
Our tour of Hiroshima with Mayumi is the top highlight of our 2 week stay in Japan. Our family of 4 truly enjoyed every moment of day that was packed with visiting important historical sites and beautiful landmarks. Mayumi's knowledge base is unmatched to any other guide we've had. She was so gracious to schedule a last minute tour for us and squeezed in the most amazing experiences. Thank you so very much Mayumi! You truly made our visit to Hiroshima and experience we will never forget.

Dear Elana. Your beautiful review is very much appreciated. I was so grateful for the graciousness and thoughtfulness of you and your sister in coming all the way to Japan with your father to fulfill his wish that he wanted to come to Japan for a long time. It was surely my honor to have spent the wonderful time with you two and your great father. Wishing you and your family all the best for happiness, long life and peace. In gratitude. Mayumi
