Things to do in Miyajima

Yassy who guided us on this English tour spoke very fluent English, friendly and approachable! She gave us alot of information and brought us to places that we on our own will never visit. She's very patient as well and did not rush us during the journey where we took breaks and chatted about Japanese culture, and she waited for us while we shop. after the trip, she even accompanied us to Genbaku Dome which we didn't know the most convenient way. Along the way, she gave us tips for our onwards journey and we also taught her some Aussie slang. highly recommended tour with Yassy.

Beautiful aquarium! It seems small, but it's actually full of things to see! The tanks are beautiful and spotless, every animal has its natural habitat, and the information signs are also in English! Even better is the daily program of attractions and shows, which is varied and not repetitive, but still allows people not to miss a show! There are also interactive tanks suitable for children and the more curious! Truly beautiful!

I recently went on this tour with Amigo Tours and had an excellent experience overall. Our guide, Angeles, was fantastic — extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and able to explain everything clearly in both Spanish and English. Our first stop was Miyajima, famous for its oysters and iconic torii gate. I enjoyed exploring the quieter hiking trails, waterfalls, and ancient stone relics before heading back to the shopping area for local pastries and beer. I wanted to try the ropeway tram, but the wait was too long for our schedule. Next was Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and Peace Park. Unfortunately, heavy traffic reduced our time there, so I had to move through the museum quickly. Even so, it was an incredibly moving and worthwhile experience. Overall, I highly recommend this tour, especially with Angeles as your guide!

glad I had joined this one day tour… both guide n his assistant were very nice, professional, had giving us lots of background of each spot. and also they were helpful for helping some of the tour member to change their train ticket. good jobs 👍👍👍

We had a fantastic day on Miyajima with Yuka. She answered all of our questioned and shared a lot of history and culture with us. We have four children 9-14 and she was incredibly kind and patient with them. She took us to a fantastic spot for lunch where we had one of our best meals. 10/10 would recommend.

Rino is a cheerful guide who keeps close tab on time, ensuring punctuality. she also helps guests to take good photos and is always smiling. The okinominya provided for lunch at Miyakayi isn’t very nice to eat. But the oysters two shops away recommended by Rino were delicious. Maybe more choices of lunch can be given.

There were only 2 of us but tour went ahead as plan. Koh was our guide and she did a great job! She was able to converse both in Chinese and English well, and we have a 3rd language hokkien too! She was able to plan the itineary well and we covered everything nicely. We get to see Tori gate during high tide and low tide as well, it was majestic and beautiful. We also hike up Mt Misen, I was huffing and puffing but she waited patiently and was encouraging as well. She is so fit and did not even break a sweat! Thank you Koh for such a wonderful experience and we learnt lots about Hiroshima from you.

The tour was a good value for money! the local guide’s insights made the tour more enriching. There was a good balance of guided moments and free time to go around by yourself. Very convenient for those wanting to see the highlights of Hiroshima in one day.

While it's not a full 360-degree view, you can see all the main sights here. There's a spot on the first floor and also upstairs. It's a great place to relax until evening after buying a lemon drink. For the night view, you can go up when it operates as a bar, but I didn't go up. It's quite high up, so the breeze was cool, but the bars made it a bit difficult to take good photos. Still, it's a nice place to relax while looking out over Hiroshima city. If you choose the origami option, you can go down a floor to fold a paper crane and drop it, and they'll even take a picture for you if you hand them your phone.
