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.

・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

Nagasaki Tour Reviews
“Fantastic tour with very knowledgeable guide”
Yoshi gave us an excellent tour of the Atomic Bomb Museum and the Peace Park. Her English is excellent, and she had many personal stories to share. We had a delicious lunch of Chapon, visited the "Spectacles" Bridge and the toured the historic site of Dejima Island. Then we walked down the main old shopping street. All in all it was a perfect tour and a very memorable day. I highly recommend using Yoshiko as your tour guide in Nagasaki!

“Visited Suwa Shrine, Dejima, Santa Domingo Church (hidden Christians), Glover Gardens, the old Katsuyama School. ”
Without doubt, Yoshi arranged and executed this personalized tour perfectly. I have never had a better tour guide or tour experience. She is extremely knowledgeable about Nagasaki’s history. Her English is excellent. Most importantly, Yoshi went above and beyond what I expect from a guide. Learning in advance that my wife lived and went to school in Nagasaki over 50 years ago, Yoshi tracked down and copied school records from the 1960’s. She then arranged a special visit to the old school. All-in-all she made it the most special day.

“Memorable Day in Nagasaki”
My husband and I were so pleased that we had Yoshi as our guide for our one day trip to Nagasaki. She was considerate of our interests while highlighting some of the unique sights of Nagasaki so we get a true flavour of this beautiful and rich city. She was organized yet flexible and planned our route well to maximize our time in the city. Through Yoshi’s professional guiding and passion of the city where she grew up, we got a deeper knowledge about Nagasaki’s multifaceted history, culture and the background of the sights we visited. Yoshi has excellent command of English and it was a delight to spend the day with her. We came to appreciate this city from Yoshi in a deep and meaningful way, more so than if we venture on our own. Would highly recommend.
