Hiroshima & Miyajima Tours & Holidays
Hiroshima & Miyajima Small Group Tours & Tailor-Made Holidays
Surrounded by the saw-toothed peaks of the Choguki Mountains, Hiroshima is surely one of Japan’s most emotive settings. Sandwiched between the narrow plains and rugged coast of the western Honsu region, the city was the first in the world to suffer the agonies of atomic destruction on August 6, 1945. Like a phoenix though, the city has risen from those ashes to become one of the most dynamic anywhere in the country.

Surrounded by the saw-toothed peaks of the Choguki Mountains, Hiroshima is surely one of Japan’s most emotive settings. Sandwiched between the narrow plains and rugged coast of the western Honsu region, the city was the first in the world to suffer the agonies of atomic destruction on August 6, 1945. Like a phoenix though, the city has risen from those ashes to become one of the most dynamic anywhere in the country.
The nearby island of Miyajima also provides one of the most iconic views in the country and the famous 'floating shrine' of the Torii gate. A tiny gem set in the heart of the tranquil waters of the Inland Sea, the island of Miyajima has long been considered a haven of peace and tranquillity. Home to the venerable shrine of Itsukushima, with its landmark gate that rises majestically from the surrounding waters, this setting is blessed with what is probably one of the finest views in all Japan.
Best experiences

Taste sake in the countryside
Visit the small town of Saijo, famed throughout Japan as the finest producers of sake anywhere in the country. The streets around the station are lined with breweries. Sample Sake from eight of Saijo's breweries whilst learning about the brewing process.
Witness the atomic fallout
One of Hiroshima’s most poignant and prominent features, the Peace Memorial Park, covers 120,000 square metres of parkland. In marked contrast to the surrounding buildings, its walking trails lead you through a serene setting of lawns and woodland.
