Full description

This is a 2-hour experience in Hiroshima, built around Children's Peace Monument, Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and Flame of Peace. It is run by One Ten Tours, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park sits on the ground beneath the point where the bomb detonated at 8:15 on 6 August 1945. The A-Bomb Dome, the skeleton of the industrial promotion hall, was left as it stood; the Peace Memorial Museum reopened in 2019 after a redesign and takes about two hours, and is not for young children. The Children's Peace Monument is hung with paper cranes sent from around the world. Hiroshima's own food is okonomiyaki layered with noodles, eaten at counters in Okonomimura. Miyajima is 40 minutes away and most visitors combine the two in one day.

The price covers live tour guide, Visit to the Flame of Peace, Visit to Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, View of the Atomic Bomb Dome and Visit to the Cenotaph for A-bomb Victims. It does not cover Transportation, Personal expenses and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

4-11 Nakajimachō, Naka Ward, Hiroshima, 730-0811, Japan. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with One Ten Tours before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

We really found our tour to be very informative. Our guide Syed did a wonderful job of walking us through all of the monuments around Peace Memorial Park. He provided an extensive review at each location and allowed time for is to ask questions. Highly recommend Syed to anyone wishing to access this tour.

Syed organised a very well informed and interesting tour - I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend. The Okonomyaki was a great end to the evening - so good to have a guide to show where to eat this amazing dish, I would have never found it myself! Thank you so much 🙂

We had an insightful tour with Syed exploring various monuments in Peace Memorial Park. Syed made sure that the tour was engaging and interactive by asking us thoughtful questions If you’re interested in monuments around the museum - who built them, why, and what they represent - this tour is a great fit.

Late March to early April for cherry blossom (2026 full bloom landed around March 29-31), or October-November for autumn color and oyster season. August 6 brings the Peace Memorial Ceremony — moving, but the city is at its most crowded. See our best time to visit Hiroshima guide.
The Hiroden streetcar (flat ¥240) covers most sights, and the meipuru-pu loop bus is free with a JR Pass. Miyajima is a ¥200 ferry ride plus the ¥100 visitor tax. Full fares and passes in getting around Hiroshima.
Two days is the sweet spot: day one for the Peace Memorial Park, Museum and city, day two for Miyajima Island. Our 2-day Hiroshima itinerary maps it hour by hour.
Plan 2-3 hours for the park and museum together — the museum is just ¥200 and opens from 7:30 AM. Etiquette, monuments, and timing tips are in our Peace Memorial Park guide.
The torii appears to float at tide levels above ~250cm, and you can walk out to its base below ~100cm — a single day often offers both. Check tide tables before you go; the full trick is in our Miyajima Island guide.
Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki — layered, not mixed like Osaka's, with soba inside — plus winter oysters and momiji manju on Miyajima. Okonomimura's 24 stalls are the classic first stop. See the Hiroshima food guide.
Miyajima is the essential one; beyond it, Iwakuni's Kintai Bridge and Okunoshima (Rabbit Island) are both doable by train. Honest rankings and logistics in our Hiroshima day trips guide.
