Overview

【Discover Another Side of Hiroshima!】Deep Hiroshima: Beyond the Guidebooks

On this private tour, we’ll skip the crowded tourist spots and dive into the quiet backstreets of Hatchobori and historic samurai-era roads. We’ll visit the Memorial Cathedral for World Peace, a hidden architectural gem, and stop by long-standing local shops—like a traditional stamp maker or a tea house—where you can engage in authentic conversations with the shopkeepers.

Perfect for those staying 2+ nights: I will help you navigate Hiroshima like a resident.

Solo Travellers Welcome: As your local friend, I’ll ensure you feel comfortable exploring places that might be hard to enter alone. Let’s experience the warm-hearted spirit and the true essence of Hiroshima’s recovery together!
