Kyudo is a Japanese martial art based on shooting an arrow from a Japanese bow to a target to reach a complete focus of mind and body. The main difference of kyudo and western archery is that, in kyudo, every movement follows a traditional routine that pays respect to the equipment and to the opponent. You will come to the archery range and dress in an authentic kyudo uniform, which will include dogi—the upper wear—and hakama—the lower wear. I'll give a brief explanation about the art of kyudo as well as instructions and demonstrations. With the knowledge you'll gain, you will learn to shoot arrows at the target. You'll also understand the fun and challenging aspect of the sport, particularly while wearing the traditional hakama and armor. Usually in kyudo, you are not allowed to pull the arrow unless you master the basics. But during our lesson, you will be able to enjoy the real kyudo experience even as a complete beginner. It will be a great time if you are looking for a nice photo or movie to show to your friends.

What are people saying about Hiroshima

Susannah_M, May 2026

Highly recommended - incredibly knowledgeable and engaging guide. Fascinating. Don't hesitate to book.

Brilliant Hiroshima walking tour On a Hiroshima day trip, our family of 5 wanted to better understand the extraordinary recent history of the beautiful city. What was the buildup to the bomb? What happened on the day? How did Hiroshima recover? What is its lasting legacy? This ~2 hour tour started at the peace memorial, meandered through the Peace Memorial Park, taking in the iconic atomic bomb dome building, the bomb epicentre, finishing at the excellent Peace Memorial Museum. Lead by our highly knowledgeable and friendly guide; Cva, he paused frequently to tell us not only the material history of what we were looking at, but the human side as well. Highly recommended to get the most out of a Hiroshima visit.

A Memorable Day with an Outstanding Guide/Person

Our Hiroshima tour with Masa was pure pleasure. Not only was it an excellent tour experience, but also an opportunity to spend our time with a wonderful person and make a new friend. Her thorough planing, kindness and thoughtfulness made our time together much more than just a tour. After several Whatsapp exchanges during the weeks prior to our tour, we had agreed to spend half of our time visiting the Hiroshima Memorial Museum, Park and surroundings, and the other half exploring the remarkable island of Miyajima. Masa had planned every detail to fit our interests and time, and she enriched our experiences by shaing her insights and knowledge throughout the day. It was a 10-minute bike ride for her to reach the cruise terminal from her home and she was right on time. We exited customs and joined her for taxi rides first to Miyajima ferry port and at the end of the day back from the Memorial Museum and Park, with ferry rides in between. We are so fortunate to have had Masa as our guide. The historic significance of our visit to Hiroshima made it one of our most anticipated stops of our cruise, and Masa exceeded every expectation. Not only did we have a wonderful tour and great learning experience, we made a new friend. It was difficult to say goodbye.

Amazing tour, Aimée and Patrick, you're the best!

Probably the best tour that we've had in Japan. Aimée and Patrick are not just amazing guides but also great people that we've enjoyed spending a day with. Biking around Hiroshima really is a great way to get to know the city, we've learned a lot of new stuff, saw a variety of places - honestly, it was unforgettable. Thank you, Aimée and Patrick, for making our trip just so much better. Don't hesitate if you're thinking of booking this adventure, it's so worth it! Also, cheers to the lovely New Zealand guys and girls that we've shared this experience with!

Hiroshima Peace & History Tour: Why the Atomic Bomb Was Dropped

Paul_K, May 2026

Very Worthwhile

This was a very comprehensive and thorough overview of Hiroshima starting with what came before WW2, the war itself, and the aftermath as a result of the dropping of the A Bomb. Our guide Kevin provided excellent historical context to the subject matter. He is very passionate about the information he is providing. Since we ended up being a very small group ( just my wife and I ), we also had the benefit of a little more perspective on how the people have moved on since WW2, specifically concerning how the local baseball team fits in. Overall a very wonderful experience dealing with a very difficult subject.

Great tour with Mickie!

Mickie was wonderful! She clearly communicated our itinerary for the day along with expected prices for every single train and ferry fare along with experience annd museum entrance costs! When we arrived we were at the wrong Starbucks, and she reached out and said she would come to us! Such a ray of sunshine! She set up a fabulous lunch in Mijakawa! We enjoyed our first Hiroshima style Okinomiyaki! Such a great experience! She helped us stay on track so that we could get the most out of the entire day! She went over and above to help us try and lock up a bus ride for the next day to Mt. Fuji area on a super busy weekend! Thanks Mickie for a great tour of Hiroshima.

Great guide, Cesar, for a great tour.

This tour had all the sights and sounds and smells anyone would need on that special island and then to come back to Hiroshima City Center for the monuments tour was exceptional.

Must must see

First things first - if you get the opportunity (via land or sea) you must visit Hiroshima, simply spell binding. It’s both shocking and inspiring at the same time but the quality of museums and memorials makes it profound and memorable. Our guide To was quietly spoken, knowledgeable and insightful - he took us via a path less travelled to tell the story the his people and his city. Thank you To!

Hiroshima by Akie comes with hope for the future!

The most important thing about this tour is to have Akie as your tour guide. She is the perfect person to lead you through the beauty of Miyajima and the tragic past turned hopeful future surrounding the city's past with the bomb. She is incredibly knowledgeable, fun, funny, and honest. Akie's English is excellent as she helps you to learn more about the Japanese language and culture. She took us to a local Okonomiyaki spot, educating us about the dish and the differences from region to region. The dedication to peace and non-proliferation of nuclear weapons is an important theme for the tourand goal for the city. Thank you Akie!

She was explaining everything with history and connecting with every passenger in bus. She planned the time very wisely. We were able to see and feel the spirituality of the place. Excellent tour guide.

Hiroshima Peace Memorial and Atomic Bomb Dome Private Tour

Troy_L, Apr 2026

Essential Hiroshima experience.

We had the absolute privilege of experiencing the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park through Khan’s private tour, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. Khan brought history to life with a level of clarity that you can’t get from guidebooks or self-guided walks. Every stop felt meaningful—each story thoughtfully shared, balancing historical context with personal humanity in a way that was both deeply moving and respectful. Khan was attentive to our own reasons for visiting this very special site. He created space for reflection while gently guiding us through the park’s most powerful sites, ensuring we not only understood what happened, but felt the importance of remembering it. His knowledge was exceptional, but it was his sincerity and empathy that made the experience unforgettable. If you’re visiting Hiroshima, do yourself a favor and book a tour with Khan. It will profoundly shape your understanding of the city’s history and leave a lasting impression long after you’ve left. Highly, highly recommended.
