Things to do in Hiroshima Prefecture

Thomas was a wonderful tour guide. He was very informative and easy to talk to. I would have liked to hear more information about the military base in Hiroshima, but I understand there was a lot to cover! This tour made me even more interested to do my own self-guided study of the city’s history. Thank you, Thomas!

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 👍👍👍

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.

We visited during the Obon holiday, and there were so many tourists that the exhibition hall was packed, making it impossible to see the exhibits. It was a real shame! However, inside the exhibition, you could truly feel the horror of nuclear energy in warfare. I hope for world peace and an end to all wars.

this is a really great place to educate yourself about Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, be prepared because for sure there will be lots of emotions during you are doing the tour.

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!

Convenience: There are quite a few options to choose from. Redemption Process: Be sure to read the redemption details carefully. Some can be redeemed on the same day, while others require a one-day advance reservation. Various passes are truly a traveler's best friend.

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.
