What Is a Private Miyajima and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Tour Like? A Licensed Guide's Report
On Miyajima, the guests thoroughly enjoyed the scenery and took many photographs. They were very fond of the deer and even took pictures together with them. They were also very taken with the Great Torii Gate and spent a considerable amount of time taking numerous photos of it. It was a shame that, because it was high tide, we were unable to walk close to the gate. At Itsukushima Shrine, we viewed it from the outside with an explanation, and the guests were very satisfied after enjoying grilled oysters. At the Peace Memorial Park, they saw the Atomic Bomb Dome, the Tower of Memorial to Mobilized Students, the Children's Peace Monument, the basement of the Rest House, and the Cenotaph, and they were deeply moved. Overall, the guests were satisfied with the tour.

Ray was an amazing guide for our day in Naoshima! She planned the timing for our visits to the art sites and museums and moved us along smoothly without us feeling rushed. She generously shared nuggets of interesting details and history about the artworks (extremely well researched and well prepared), and patiently answered our questions. Really appreciate her sincere efforts and positive energy. We had a most enjoyable and enriching experience! Highly recommended!!
