Hiroshima Peace Private Tour with Local: A-Bomb & Garden History

Hiroshima Tour

Yuka was an excellent tour guide. She contacted us two weeks in advanced and made sure that she customized the tour to us. Even though we had to change our pick up time and location, she was incredibly accommodating. We highly recommend her.

Full Day Hiroshima and Miyajima Tour

Issabela was fantastic....

Issabela was fantastic. Very organized and knowledgeable about the history and culture of Hiroshima. She was also accommodating because of being a senior citizen (70) and limited walking abilities.

Kimono & Self Photo shoot Experience near tourist attractions

An unforgettable yukata experience with expert styling, warm hospitality, and an authentic taste of Japanese tradition.

I had such a wonderful experience! I wanted to make a special summer memory, so I decided to rent a yukata and visit a self-photo studio by myself for the first time. They have a great selection of yukata, and you can create so many unique looks by mixing and matching the obi (sash), heko obi, obi-jime (decorative cord), and adorable hair accessories. I usually prefer cooler tones and a more traditional style, but the staff encouraged me to try something different. Since I'm tall, they recommended a yukata with a vertical pattern, saying it would suit my height better. I ended up choosing a cute reddish-pink yukata with a vertical morning glory design, and they completed the look with a sparkly heko obi and the cutest pearl-decorated obi-jime. I absolutely loved the whole look! Renting a yukata is a fantastic way to try a style you wouldn't normally choose, and it felt like discovering a whole new side of myself. The staff was incredibly friendly and chatted with me throughout the appointment, so I felt comfortable right away even though I was there by myself. The location is also great—it's close to Shukkeien Garden, Hiroshima Castle, and the Hiroshima Prefectural Art Museum. Next time, I'd love to come back with friends, wear yukata together, take more photos, and enjoy a relaxing walk through Shukkeien. (Shukkeien is a historic stroll garden with a scenic pond, iconic bridges, and a peaceful bamboo forest.) What I appreciated most was how carefully they helped me in the yukata using traditional techniques. I've seen some places in Hiroshima where the styling doesn't quite reflect traditional Japanese dressing, which is understandable if they're unfamiliar with it. If you're looking for an authentic yukata experience, this is definitely the place to go. I had the best time and will definitely be back!
