Hiroshima & Miyajima 1 Day Bus Tour with Bullet Train Tickets

The visit to the most notable of WW II memorial was both beautiful and emotional. The tour guides had a very strong hold on the history of the events that led to the Hiroshima bombings and the events that followed. Her reasonings for every monument made the visit memorable. Both tour guides were amazingly patient and gave us ample time to absorb the beauty and the history of the sites. A very well coordinated trip and a must do activity, if you plan to visit Japan anytime

Overall, this was an interesting and worthwhile tour, and a convenient way to visit both Hiroshima and Miyajima in a single day. For travelers with limited time in Japan, joining an organized tour saves a lot of planning, transportation arrangements, and stress. The biggest advantage of this tour is the time savings. Organizing a day trip to Hiroshima and Miyajima independently, including Shinkansen tickets, ferry connections, transportation between attractions, and coordinating the schedule, would require significantly more effort. Thanks to the tour, we were able to see the highlights of both destinations in one day. However, there are several areas that could be improved. First, the lunch was by far the worst meal we had during our two-week trip across Japan. The food was dry, lacked flavor, and did not reflect the quality of Japanese cuisine we experienced elsewhere. I strongly recommend booking the tour without lunch and using the free time to eat at one of the local restaurants instead. It will likely be both tastier and better value for money. Second, we paid an additional 3,000 JPY for a Polish audio guide. Unfortunately, the translation worked only while travelling on the bus. Once we got off the bus and continued the guided tour at the sites, the translation was no longer available. We were informed that this is how the system always works, but this important limitation was not clearly explained when booking the tour. Had we known this in advance, our expectations would have been different. The guide was friendly and tried her best, but her English was sometimes difficult to understand. The destinations themselves are absolutely worth visiting. Hiroshima is a place of great historical significance, and Miyajima is one of the most beautiful locations we visited in Japan. The itinerary is well designed and covers the key attractions efficiently. Would I recommend visiting Hiroshima and Miyajima? Absolutely. Would I specifically recommend this HIS-operated tour? Not necessarily. The destinations themselves are outstanding, but the overall organization did not fully meet our expectations, particularly regarding the lunch and the Polish audio guide service. Based on our experience, I would consider comparing other tour operators before booking.

It was a very smooth and comfortable experience

Very nice experience! I totally raccomanded

Very well managed trip. The customer care is also very helpful. Our Shinkansen to Hiroshima got slightly delayed, but their team was very responsive and ensured that there was no trouble.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Hiroshima & Miyajima Tour with Hiro – June 2026 Today, my wife, our 11-year-old son, and I had the pleasure of exploring Hiroshima and Miyajima with Hiro, and it was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our Japan trip. Hiro is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, organized, and passionate about sharing Japan’s history and culture. His explanations at Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and throughout the tour were insightful, engaging, and thought-provoking, helping us understand the significance of the places we visited. What impressed us most was how friendly and patient he was with our son, making the experience educational, interactive, and enjoyable for the entire family. Hiro ensured everything ran smoothly, from the bullet train journey to the sightseeing stops, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the day. By the end of the tour, Hiro felt less like a guide and more like a knowledgeable friend sharing the best of Japan with us. Thank you, Hiro, for creating such wonderful family memories.

The tour leader was well-prepared and enthusiastic. Even though English is not her native language, she spoke confidently. She reminded us of the time by writing on her note pad, showed us photos and did a great job in doing head count at every stop. I have enjoyed the tour. Thank you Azusa.
