Full description

This is a 2-hour experience in Hiroshima. It is run by M2N 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 Two-hour walking tour, local guide, Visit to Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, Stories and testimonies from atomic bomb victims and Visit to significant monuments including Atomic Bomb Dome. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

M2N Tours sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with M2N Tours before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Our guide, Saki, was wonderful. She explained everything in a very calm way. She told stories about the bomb and the life after and she could really passionate our 2 teenagers and us! An evening tour is a very nice way to learn about Hiroshima. This is without doubt one of the highlights of our Japan journey.

So glad we booked this tour! We had already been to the museum, but Camille added so much more local context to the history and stories of local experiences. We wouldn’t have gained the same depth of experience if we had wandered the peace park ourselves. She really engaged our teenagers, and took the time to talk to them even though it was a large group. The evening tour was much quieter than groups we saw going around in the middle of the day.

Anna was very knowledgeable and accomodating. I really enjoyed the walk and would, totally recommend the night tour over day. Zero crowds and the memorial lighting added to the emotional mood of the area - not to mention the photography.

I loved this tour and can highly recommend it! Camille gave us a lot of insights on Hiroshima‘s history and the events around the A-bomb. It was for sure a deeply moving and emotional experience getting to know all the details about the historical events. Camille herself is such a fantastic tour guide, incredibly friendly and really great in interacting with her customers. Thank you Camille :)

We really enjoyed our tour of Hiroshima Peace Park with our guide Cva. He showed us all the important places connected to the atomic bomb and shared touching and informative stories along the way. Even though it was just the two of us, it felt super comfortable — relaxed but still very professional. What made it even more special was how clearly he shared the park’s message: that Hiroshima stands for peace. He helped us understand how the city, its people, and its government continue to work toward a peaceful future for everyone. A meaningful and memorable experience — thank you, Cva!

The tour was informative and whilst Camille was new in the role she provided so much information about Hiroshima and the events surrounding the A bomb in 1945. Camille had a colleague with her and together they were able to answer all of our questions and gave detailed explanations of the various memorials and statues in the Peace Park. We enjoyed the slightly quieter atmosphere in the Park in the evening. 2 hours was just about the right amount of time and the tour was good value for money. Would thoroughly recommend.

Frequently Asked Questions

M2N Tours sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed.
The listing gives the distance and the terrain; most walking tours are flat and paced for average fitness, and cycling tours use river paths and back streets with e-bikes available on request. Summer in the cities is hot and humid from July to September, so early starts and water matter more than fitness.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

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.
