Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Itsukushima Shrine, 1-1 Miyajimacho, Hatsukaichi 739-0588 Hiroshima Prefecture

Established in the 6th century, this shrine is one of Japan's finest, and is famous for its beautiful Shinden-zukuri style structure (architecture representative of a nobles' residence in the Heian period). The contrast of the green of Mount Misen behind the lacquered shrine pavilion and the blue of the Seto Sea is beautiful and evocative of the underwater palace of Ryugujo.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, 1-2 Nakajima-cho, Naka-ku, Hiroshima 730-0811 Hiroshima Prefecture

This large-scale park was established in 1949 after the Pacific War ended, and is visited by countless visitors as a symbol of peace. The museum within the park is an Important Cultural Property of Japan, and was built to remind future generations of the terror wrought by atomic bombs.

Duration: 1 hour 40 minutes

Pass By: Atomic Bomb Dome, 1-10 Otemachi Naka-ku, Hiroshima 730-0051 Hiroshima Prefecture

The Atomic Bomb Dome is a symbol of the disastrous atomic bombing during WWII, the first atomic bombs used in human history, and has been preserved as it was to promote peace and elimination of atomic weapons around the world.

A beautiful ferry trip to Miyajima where we met the deer, visited a large Shrine and Temple, plus ate delicious oysters. Onto Hiroshima and the Memorial museum with our knowledgeable guide. A personal experience.

We enjoyed this tour. Bullet train ride to Hiroshima and the same going back to Kyoto. We saw nice sites on the island. Also the memorial and in the museum. Hiro is a good guide. Good experience overall.

Liked everything on the tour, but communication was poor with 38 people aboard. The A bomb site was impressive and the museum very emotional.
