The Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum covers the history of the drop of the bomb accessible form of a story. It begins with the disastrous scene of the attack and includes the events leading up to the dropping of the atomic bomb, the reconstruction of Nagasaki up to the present day, the history of nuclear weapons development, and the hope for a peaceful world free of nuclear weapons. ※Enrance fee: JPY 200
Hypocenter
In the center of the complex is the Hypocenter Park with a simple, black monolith that marks the explosion's epicenter.
Peace Park
Nagasaki Peace Park was established in 1955 near Ground Zero where the Atomic Bomb was dropped at 11:02 am on Aug. 09, 1945. It was opened as a memorial for the victims and to send the world a message for peace.
At a local restaurant
If you would like, you can enjoy our signature food champon(noodles) or else.
Mt. Inasa
Mount Inasa is a hill to the west of Nagasaki which rises to a height of 333 meters (1,093 ft). The Nagasaki Ropeway or Slope Car allows visitors to travel to the top. There is an observation platform that is popular with tourists as it provides beautiful views of Nagasaki's "10 Million Dollar Night View"
※We will take a taxi for the round trip to get to ropeway or street car station.
Unique streets with rivers, temples and the oldest shopping area
You can enjoy walking around the streets, but we should not miss Megane-bashi bridge. It is said to be the oldest stone arch
bridge in Japan and has been designated as an Important Cultural Property. It received the nickname “Spectacles Bridge” because its
two arches and their reflection in the water create the image of a pair of eyeglasses.
Arrive at your hotel or the other place in the city

Tour Important Information
・We usually walk from the Atomic Bomb Museum to Peace Park via the hypocenter park. These places are close to each other.
・Regarding the lunch, if you have something you would like to try or you can't eat, please tell me. I'll do my best to find the restaurant which meets your requests.
My father was an atomic bomb survivor. As a local guide of Nagasaki and the second generation of the atomic bombing, I am so honored to talk about our past mistakes and share the time to pray for world peace with my clients. Also, you can enjoy the breathtaking view of our town from Mt. Inasa. If you would like to hike up to the top of the mountain without taking a slope car or a ropeway, it will be fun, too. In that case, it will take two hours or so to get to the summit. Then, walking around Nakashima-gawa river is a relaxing experience while seeing stone bridges, temples, and the oldest shopping street of our town.
This tour includes my favorite sites of Nagasaki City and I highly recommend to book

“Memorable one-day tour of Nagasaki”
Yoshi is an exceptional tour guide in Nagasaki! A local with impeccable English and extensive knowledge of her city, she made our day trip truly memorable. She thoughtfully answered all our questions and crafted a one-day itinerary that included all the highlights—Atomic Bomb Museum, Mt. Inasa, Dejima, and more. Highly recommended!

(25 reviews)I really appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to write such a lovely review. Your kind words mean a lot to me. I am so glad you chose Nagasaki as a stop on your Kyushu trip. I hope you were able to see some of the other amazing things Nagasaki prefecture offers, like the beautiful Goto Islands or the Unzen hot springs. I would love to welcome you back again someday. I hope you two liked "kakuni manjyu", Nagasaki specialty! Please extend my best to your wife. Warmly, Yoshi
“Exception Guide for Nagasaki”
Yoshi was an exceptional guide for our visit to Nagasaki. She tailored our tour for the day to what we wanted to see and informed us of some very unique sites that we were unaware of. She is relatable and brought history to life with every site that we visited, including very touching personal stories from people she knew who were survivors of the terrible bombing in 1945. The pace of her walking tour was 100% appropriate for our group and I suspect she would cater that to whomever she is showing around. She also assisted us with translation and in directing taxi cabs to the sites we visited. We could not have asked for a more comprehensive tour. 100% satisfied with the time we spent together. Yoshi impressed us with her depth of knowledge, patience and attention to what our group wanted to see and she was flexible when time constraints and weather forced a change to our original plan. An excellent guide for Nagasaki!

(25 reviews)Thank you for taking the time to write a wonderful review for me. I am so humbled to receive your genuine heartfelt compliment! I also enjoyed talking with you all and appreciate that you listened so attentively. I hope all of the Pens, Noren, cat's goods, a watch band, wind chime and so on that you bought in the shopping mall yesterday will remind you of Nagasaki. Once again, I am grateful for hiring me as your guide and visiting Nagasaki. Please give my regards to everyone. Yoshi
“Nagasaki day tour”
Yoshi was very helpful in setting up the tour for us including telling us which trains to take from Hakata since Nagasaki was a day trip for us. She was very flexible in the scheduling of the sights and also, gave us recommendations of what to see. We went to the Atomic Bomb Museum, Oura Cathedral, Inasayama Observatory and the 26 Martyrs memorial. Yoshi was very informative on all of these sites and also, gave us more insight to other things we saw along the way. Noriko was also very helpful finding a lunch restaurant that could accomodate our son's food allergies. We were very happy with the tour and would highly recommend her.
