JR West Miyajima Ferry

Miyajima Omotesando Shopping Street
Omotesando Shopping Street is a lively area filled with souvenir shops, restaurants, and plenty of delicious street‑food options. Some guests prefer to enjoy the local snacks while walking, while others choose to sit down for a meal such as oysters or Hiroshima‑style okonomiyaki. If you prefer a restaurant lunch, we can discuss it on the tour day, as we may need to adjust the schedule depending on your available time in Hiroshima and restaurant crowd levels.

Our final stop will be the Peace Memorial Museum, a quiet and reflective space where conversations are kept to a minimum. Since all exhibits are displayed in both Japanese and English, you will explore the museum on your own after I scan the QR code of the ticket I have reserved for you at the entrance. If you prefer an audio guide in another language, I can assist you in renting one. (Audio guides are not included in the tour price.)
