About this experience
If you are staying in Hiroshima and want to enjoy evening activities like the locals, this tour is highly recommended. It is the tour to enjoy bouldering, tachinomi, okonomiyaki, and walking around a local area with a guide. The tour starts at Yokogawa Station, 4 minutes by train from Hiroshima Station. Yokogawa is the district for locals, not for tourists. So, you can feel the different atmosphere from the tourist attractions. The instructor at the bouldering gym speaks English. Beginners, experts and kids can all have fun. Hiroshima is the place where Ginjo Sake was developed. Why don't you try Hiroshima's selected sake? Guests between the ages of 12 and 59 can participate in the tour. For guests under 20 and those who don't drink alcohol, we offer soft drinks. Okonomiyaki is Hiroshima's specialty. We will take you to a retro okonomiyaki restaurant. Your Hiroshima-based guide (a licensed Japanese guide or a trained American guide) will introduce you to various things as you walk.

Personable Guide, Excellent Food, Great Climbing
The guide was personable and was extremely knowledgeable about the city (and climbing!). Every stop was charming, and the drinks and food were the most delicious we’ve had in this city. If you like hidden gems, winning personalities, and climbing, you will like this tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are so happy that you enjoyed our tour and that you took your precious time to write it. Your guide, Akie, said that she also had a great time with you, and it is always our pleasure to meet wonderful guests like you.Thank you very much.

Really good bouldering and really good sake
It quite nice to get away from the crowds. I was treated to some beer, snacks, sake and okonomiyake. Plus some interesting bits about the area. The gym is quite nice, it's smaller than back home but climbing routes are really interesting. You have to experience it to see why Japan has some of the world's top climbers. I thought I was pretty strong until I came to this place! Also very beginner friendly, I would also recommend if its your first time climbing because they take care of everything.
Response from the operator: Thank you for joining our tour and writing your review. We offer this tour because we think it is fun to try a sport, drink, eat and walk in a local area at night in a foreign country. Thank you for mentioning the gym. The owner of the gym must appreciate your review.

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for joining our tour and writing your review. It is safe here and walking around at night is fun. We are really happy to know that you enjoyed the local experience in Hiroshima City. We will continue to improve up our tour. So please come back and try our tour again.

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Bouldering, Sake and Food, Local Gem Hiroshima Evening Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hiroshima.
How much does Bouldering, Sake and Food, Local Gem Hiroshima Evening Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $8000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hiroshima usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bouldering, Sake and Food, Local Gem Hiroshima Evening Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hiroshima is not rushed.
Is Bouldering, Sake and Food, Local Gem Hiroshima Evening Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hiroshima, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bouldering, Sake and Food, Local Gem Hiroshima Evening Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Bouldering, Sake and Food, Local Gem Hiroshima Evening Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 12. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Bouldering, Sake and Food, Local Gem Hiroshima Evening Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hiroshima can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hiroshima and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bouldering, Sake and Food, Local Gem Hiroshima Evening Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hiroshima within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hiroshima?
+
On Outty we rank every Hiroshima experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Peaceful Hiroshima & Miyajima UNESCO 1 Day Bus Tour, Hiroshima Peace (Heiwa) Walking Tour at World Heritage Sites, Hiroshima & Miyajima in 1 Day: Private Tour, Licensed Guide. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hiroshima?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hiroshima?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
