Day trip to Hiroshima and Miyajima by bullet train from Tokyo

Set off on a full-day exploration of Japan's culture and history, departing from Tokyo Station. Your trip begins with a ride aboard the Shinkansen, Japan’s high-speed train, whisked through scenic landscapes towards Hiroshima. Upon arrival, a local guide awaits to lead your discovery tour.

Enjoy a brief ferry ride to your first stop in the island of Miyajima, celebrated for the Itsukushima Shrine—a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Meander through the sacred grounds, marvelling at the torii gate that seems to float on water during high tide. As you wander, encounter temples and gardens, their beauty amplified by cherry blossoms in spring.

The tour then proceeds to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, a symbol of remembrance and hope. Here, witness the Atomic Bomb Dome and reflect on Hiroshima’s enduring message of peace.

The day concludes with a return trip to Tokyo aboard the high-speed train. This excursion provides an insight into Japan's history and natural beauty.
