TOKYO

In Hiroshima, there are two World Heritage Sites. The first one is Miyajima or also called Itsukushima, a small island in Hiroshima bay which has forests and ancient temples but one of the most famous sights is the orange Great Torii Gate that sits submerged in water depending on the tide. The second site is the Atomic Bomb Dome, which is a powerful reminder of the scars of war. In this tour, we will visit both World Heritage Sites in one day!! (It takes about 2 hours by bullet train from Kyoto to Hiroshima!!)

We will meet you at the bullet train station or your hotel. Then we will take you to Miyajima by the local train. You will be impressed by the beautiful and calm Itsukushima shrine on the ocean!! (The deer will also welcome you!!) We will also walk along the local shopping street. (There will be many restaurants and shops.) After lunch, we move to the Atomic Bomb Dome, Peace Memorial Park and Museum. Then we will pray for a peaceful world. At the end, we will head to the place of your choice. (Hotel, bullet train station, etc.)

【Caution】A big torii gate in Itsukushima Shrine is under construction now.

Nagasaki 1–Day Highlight Private Walking Tour (8 Hours)

Nagasaki was the only place that had a connection to the world during the Edo era. (17th-19th century). During this time Nagasaki was the only place acting as an International trade market providing the world with Japanese art and cultural influences. Because of this Nagasaki also gained strong influences from many foreign countries. (China, Korea, Portugal, Holland, etc.) You can find a lot of non-Japanese architecture and gardens, here. Additionally, Nagasaki was also one of the locations where the atomic bomb was dropped during World War 2. It is an amazing place to go see all the International influences that were left on this city. Let's explore the interesting sights in Nagasaki, together!!

We spent an awesome day! Nami took us to Miyajima Island, and then back to Hiroshima to teach us a lot of memorable things about the A-Bomb event, while visiting all of the symbols in that area. An unforgettable day. Thank you Nami, for your professionalism, enthusiasm, and empathy from our family. Excellent!

Kaori Doi was our tour guide for the day in Hiroshima. We could not have had a better guide. She is very knowledgeable and shared so much information. She made it so very special by including information about her family's personal experiences with the bombing. She made us feel so welcome and made a special effort to see us again the next morning as she was in the same port we docked that day. Japan Wonder Travel is a great company and Kaori an excellent guide for that company.

The private tour I had in Hiroshima was one that I will never forget. The scenery was beautiful and the peace museum, especially for an American like myself, was very moving. It was a very eye opening experience and I am very happy I had the opportunity to visit such a wonderful place. Not to mention that my tour guide Kazue-san, was so incredibly nice. She made the tour extremely informative while adapting to my needs. If you are looking for a tour guide in Hiroshima, I would highly recommend booking through Japan Wonder Travel.

Our tour guide, Kaori was really great, she is born and raised in Hiroshima and knows a lot about her great city. This tour was personally emotional for me, I cried as I walked around the memorial, museum, and other sites. Kaori shared a personal story, it broke my heat; every American should find their way there if they visit Japan, it’s an important reminder of world peace. We went to a shrine, had the pleasure of seeing a wedding, enjoyed Momiji Manjyu cakes while in Miyajima. Wow, these maple leaf shape cakes are delicious! I would book with Japan Wonder Travel again!!!

We really enjoyed our tour with Nami. She met us at the train station as we arrived from Kyoto. The visit to the PeaceMemorial was very moving. The trip to Miyajima Island was a nice change of pace and quite beautiful. We enjoyed our lunch there as we tasted thre oconomiyaki. Nami was very organized and knowledgable.
