Lovely tour of a beautiful city
We loved Miyajima. The Itsukushima shrine was fascinating and the Daishoin temple was beautiful. We walked through a lovely park and our guide Yuti made us matcha tea and a snack from Hiroshima. We enjoyed our day and our tour guide had lots of interesting information and was very kind and helpful.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for coming to our tour this time! We are glad that you had a fun in Miyajima island and enjoyed the day with our guide. Come back to Miyajima whenever you visit Japan again!! :)

Wonderful day in Hiroshima and Miyajima
We had a wonderful day with Yuta. We were originally planning a half day tour to Miyajima and changed it to an all day tour. Yuta was very patient, kind and shared a lot of information. Our 21 year old nephew was traveling with us and he's very quiet. Yuta was wonderful with him. They got a long very well and we loved how Yuta made an effort of asking our nephew more about his interest, which really got my nephew talking. Thank you for a wonderful day Yuta. We hope to bring the rest of our family back to visit Hiroshima and hope you can show the rest of our family around then and hope you will reach out if you ever visit California.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for coming to Hiroshima this time! I am very happy that you had a fun with your family and nephew. Thank you also for inviting me to your hometown California, and I am looking forward to seeing you all again, and also looking forward to seeing other lovely family members too someday! Please come back to Japan and visit us anytime:) Thank you so much! Yuta

Miyajima 3 Hours Walking Tour with a Licensed Local Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hiroshima.
How much does Miyajima 3 Hours Walking Tour with a Licensed Local Guide cost?
+
Prices start at $55000 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 Miyajima 3 Hours Walking Tour with a Licensed Local Guide 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 Miyajima 3 Hours Walking Tour with a Licensed Local Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 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 Miyajima 3 Hours Walking Tour with a Licensed Local Guide?
+
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 Miyajima 3 Hours Walking Tour with a Licensed Local Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Miyajima 3 Hours Walking Tour with a Licensed Local Guide?
+
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 Miyajima 3 Hours Walking Tour with a Licensed Local Guide 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.
