Unforgettable Miyajima Tour with Yuki - Highly Recommended! On August 24, 2025, we (Inga and Wolfgang) enjoyed a private tour of Miyajima - a true highlight of our trip to Japan. Our guide Yuki warmly welcomed us at the ferry station on the mainland and guided us throughout the day. On the island, we visited the impressive Itsukushima Shrine with its famous red torii in the water, strolled along the lively Omotesando Shopping Street, admired the Tahoto Pagoda, and took the roopway up Mount Misen. The tour was very well organized, interesting and simply the perfect choice for us. Yuki made the day so special: she provided excellent insights, always respected our pace, was very caring, and took many wonderful photos of us. We felt completely comfortable and could enjoy Miyajima at a relaxed pace. The tour will always stay in our memory. We were thrilled and can highly recommend Yuki - she truly made it a perfect expierence!

Shin was an excellent tour guide! It was our second day in Japan. He is very knowledgeable and kind, and gave us a lot of great information on Shintoism and Buddhism. We visited a lot of beautiful shrines and temples. Shin has great English and was very easy to understand.

Our tour guide was absolutely wonderful, introducing us to local foods, telling us the history of the shrines and the island of Miyajima, telling us stories associated with the places. She was sweet, spoke English and was so wonderful to take many pictures of my daughter and myself both alone and together! I would recommend this tour and our guide Kaori to anyone considering it!
