Full description

This is a 8-hour experience in Hiroshima, built around Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, Atomic Bomb Dome and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. It is run by Pinpoint Traveler, 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 Tour guide, Public transportation fares, Entrance fees to Peace Memorial Park and Itsukushima Shrine and Free time for personal exploration. It does not cover Lunch, 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.

7-Eleven Hiroshima Motoyasubashi East Store. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Pinpoint Traveler before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

This tour was AMAZING! We visited the shrine during peak season and yet, we never waited in line for anything. Our guide, Ken, was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, energetic, and completely prepared. Every detail of our day was planned so we could enjoy our experience. Must do in Japan!

Ken was an amazing guide for my day tour in Hiroshima. From the beginning, his communication was excellent — clear, fast and helpful even before the tour started. During the day he was incredibly kind, well organized, and made everything easy and enjoyable. He shared interesting insights and made sure I had the best experience possible. I truly appreciated his care and professionalism. Highly recommended!

We had an absolutely amazing and really memorable day, together with our group and Ken (Kensuke), who was our guide today. His English is really good and he explained everything really well- the questions we had, he answered them before we were able to voice them. I collect stamps, I briefly told him and he was so sweet to point out all stamps on the way ( I would have missed most of them). The Tour in general was both emotional and beautiful- we had teary eyes, leaning about what happened back then, paired with all the details. Miyajima was sunny and nice, a really beautiful island- I’ve done

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.
