This full day tour packs all the best of Hiroshima and Miyajima Island into a single day. In the morning, we will stroll through the Peace Memorial Park where I will take you from monument to monument to tell you about the events that led to that tragic morning of August 1945, but most importantly about the ordinary Hiroshima residents whose lives were forever changed that day. In the afternoon, we will visit the beautiful sacred island of Itsukushima, popularly known as Miyajima. From Itsukushima Shrine and its majestic vermillon torii we will venture uphill to admire the view from atop Dashoin Temple. We will end the day with a walk back to the ferry through the shopping arcade of the island where we will have the chance to taste, if you would like to, the local craft beer (such as Miyajima OysterStout made with smoked oysters !) or the delicious momiji manju (maple leaf shaped sweet) !
I will meet you at your hotel or at Hiroshima station. We will visit the Peace Memorial Park (Museum, Children Monument, "Eternal" Flame, Victim Memorial Hall and Atomic Bomb Dome). We will have lunch on Miyajima Island (I would like to suggest you some delicious oysters - Hiroshima prefecture's most famous delicacy- or a fun and yummy Hiroshima style okonomiyaki). We will continue on to Itsukushima Shrine. Then we will visit Dashoin Temple. I will take you back to your hotel or any other place within Hiroshima city. Please note that this itinerary can be customized and adapted to your needs/desires.

We will be walking a total of 5 to 9 km as we will go from one site to another by foot. On Miyajima Island, we will climb some stairs as well, hence the moderate level of activity. Please make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes.
