Description
Your excursion starts making your way to the shoreline to catch a ferry to the magical island of Miyajima. Known for its serene ambiance and spectacular natural surroundings, the island hosts the famed Itsukushima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its iconic floating torii gate—rising gracefully from the sea during high tide—is one of Japan’s most iconic sights, perfect for memorable photos.
As you explore the island, you’ll be able to wander through quaint streets, discover ancient temples, and savor local specialties such as Miyajima’s famous oysters and momiji manju, delightful maple leaf-shaped sweets. Friendly deer roaming freely around the island add a special charm to your visit.
Catch the ferry back and travel in the bus to Hiroshima, where you’ll visit the Peace Memorial Park, a place of profound historical importance. Here you’ll see the Peace Memorial, the Atomic Bomb Dome, and several monuments dedicated to the victims of the 1945 bombing. Walking through this meaningful area offers a moment to reflect on the value of global peace and the strength of the Japanese people.
After a day rich in history, nature, and cultural experiences, you’ll board the train back and return to Kyoto by yourself, bringing with you unforgettable memories of two of Japan’s most captivating locations.

Does what it promises
Happy with it, even if not everything was perfect. Well signposted throughout, and staff were attentive. We really enjoyed the Hiroshima e Miyajima Philadelphia part. For what we paid, it is exceptional value. The included drinks were fairly basic. I do recommend it, with the caveats above.

Cumple y sobra
Nada que reprochar, todo salió como estaba planteado. Terminamos con una idea clara de cómo está armada la ciudad. El detalle de transporte desde el punto de encuentro suma bastante. Salió todo en horario, sin sobresaltos. Ojalá todos los tours fueran así.

Impecável
Saímos encantados. Vir com transporte a partir do ponto de encontro deixa mais completo. O atendimento foi atento sem ser invasivo. O lugar em Kyoto tem uma ambientação linda. Uma experiência que vale cada minuto.

De lo mejor que hicimos en el viaje. Patrimônio Mundial da UNESCO nos voló la cabeza, no esperábamos algo así. Nos avisaron de un cambio de horario con tiempo suficiente. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. El guía manejaba los dos idiomas del grupo sin problema. Sin dudas una de las mejores experiencias del viaje.

Fue el mejor día de nuestro viaje a Kyoto. Comparé precios antes de reservar y esta era la opción más conveniente. Nos atendieron por WhatsApp para una duda y respondieron en minutos. No esperaba que incluyera guía bilingüe en español e inglés, un plus. El recorrido está bien pensado, no se repite ni da vueltas de más. Una experiencia que vale cada minuto.

Very good, just short of excellent. The guide spoke very fast and it was easy to lose the thread. We messaged them on WhatsApp with a question and got an answer in minutes. The talk at Itsukushima Shrine really stayed with us. We paid noticeably less than other options and the experience was just as good. One of the stops was closed that day and nobody mentioned it. I would do it again anyway.
