Top Hiroshima Private Sightseeing Tours

If your time in Hiroshima is limited, this private day tour takes you to the major sights that most visitors need multiple days to see. Stick to the suggested itinerary or adapt it to your tastes. Focus on history at Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, spirituality at Miyajima Island, or something else-how you explore is up to you.

Escape the crowds and discover a side of Hiroshima most travelers never see. Just a 40-minute scenic ferry ride from the city, Etajima Island feels like a different world—peaceful coastal roads, traditional fishing villages, olive groves, and locally run cafés overlooking the Seto Inland Sea. This private e-bike experience lasts around 6 hours, but the cycling itself is gentle and broken up by ferry crossings, café stops, lunch, and time off the bike to enjoy the scenery. Comfortable pedal-assist e-bikes make the ride accessible for anyone with basic cycling ability. Along the way, we stop for coffee at a seaside café, enjoy a local lunch, and visit tucked-away beaches and scenic viewpoints far from busy sightseeing routes. Guided by a local, the day offers an authentic look at everyday island life at an unhurried pace. The tour schedule can be adjusted to combine easily with a visit to the Peace Memorial Park on the same day. This is a private tour for your group only.

A private tour — just your group and a Hiroshima-based guide. You set the pace, and you can ask anything. Most Hiroshima tours cover the Peace Park, the Dome and the museum. You can do those on your own. This tour takes you where you can't go alone: ・A working elementary school, 460 m from the hypocenter, where survivors' chalk messages were found under the plaster after 54 years ・The bank that reopened two days after the bomb, and lent its own counters to ten other banks ・The hypocenter itself — outside a clinic still run by the grandson of the doctor who came back that night to treat the injured ・A stone that still carries the shadow of the statue standing in front of it ・A bakery built around a wall that survived the blast The tree that came back the following spring, whose seeds are now planted overseas By the end you'll have met about a dozen survivors of 6 August. Not all of them are people.
