Overview

Join a private 3- or 4-hour walking tour through Hiroshima guided by Japanese locals with deep personal and family ties to the city.

Some of our guides are second-generation atomic bomb survivors, while others were born and raised in Hiroshima or have family members affected by the atomic bombing. What we share are not scripted narratives, but perspectives passed down quietly through families and everyday life.

Visit the World Heritage Site of the Atomic Bomb Dome and reflect at Peace Memorial Park and Museum. Along the way, explore local streets, experience regional culture, and enjoy thoughtful conversation with your guide. This tour is flexible and fully customizable to your pace and interests, whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with family.

This experience goes beyond historical facts and famous landmarks. You’ll hear stories shaped by memory, silence, and resilience—offering a deeper understanding of Hiroshima’s past, present, and message for the future.
