Central Hiroshima and Okonomiyaki (Local Food) Tourcover image

Central Hiroshima and Okonomiyaki (Local Food) Tour

Hiroshima
4 hours

First up, I bring you to Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. Hiroshima is well known as the first city in the world history, that was atomic bombed. You may walk and drop by at many spots built to commemorate those who perished in those days and learn more at Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. After that study tour, we roam around Central Hiroshima (the busiest street for shopping) and finally arrive at Okonomiyaki restaurant for early supper. Okonomiyaki is Hiroshima's soul food; a savory pancake filled with chopped vegetables, meat, sea food, noodle, egg and whatever you want, even cheese... Actually this is the origin of the name of Okonomiyaki, since Okonomi literally means "as you like" and yaki means grilled. Fun to see how to make on a huge iron plate and exciting to eat with a special tool (Kote). Just give it a try.

Rabbit Island

Hiroshima
8 hours 30 min

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.

Mayumi I. Japan Tour Reviews

Excellent guide and wonderful tour

Mayumi is extremely experienced and knowledgeable She is passionate and wonderful to listened to when she tells about the culture, traditions and history of Japan and Hiroshima Visiting with her the Peace Memorial Museum and Park and the Atomic bomb Dome is a really touching experience We are thankful for the day spent with her

Lucia C.

Dear Lucia, Thanks so much, too, for a delightful tour with your charming family. It looks very hot and humid again today, though. I hope you will enjoy your visit to Naoshima. The weather in Tokyo next week is not looking so good, but a blessed rain could be better than extreme heat. Thank you very much. Best, Mayumi

Very Insightful Day

Mayumi did a great job of tailoring a tour to meet the needs of my family and we had a wonderful day. Her personal knowledge of Hiroshima made the trip that much better.

Brian C.

Dear Brian, Thank you very much for the great review. The Paris Olympics have started. Can't believe it's been already three years since the Tokyo Olympics were carried out without spectators due to COVID...  Now Women's Soccer appears to be very exciting as well. I am sure your daughter is also enjoying it. Please root for the Japan women's soccer team, too, Lol. Best, Mayumi
