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.

“Highly recommend Mayumi for an amazing tour of central Hiroshima”
Mayumi is friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel very welcome throughout the tour. She was very flexible with our schedule which really helped me plan without stress. What really stood out to us was how she took us to places we never would have discovered on our own, sharing interesting stories and local insights along the way. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a deeper, more personal experience! We would highly recommend

“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.
