We had a wonderful 1/2 day tour with Yugi to Miyajima in late May. Yuji met us at the ferry terminal and showed us insider tips on where to stand for good viewing as we approached the island. He did a super job of getting us around the to the sights of the island and out of the crowds. A highlight was a private performance on his flute. It was a memorable time.

Our tour guide Miki was prompt and very informative. She provided us with the history of the places we visited and always ensured we had plenty of time at each destination. Would highly recommend.

Our guide, Kazuko Kuwata, is a delightful woman and toured us expertly around the shrines and temple on this beautiful island in Hiroshima Bay. The Itsukushima Shrine Otorii Gate is certainly a highlight, as it appears to float in the water at high tide, but there is much more to see. The Daishoin Buddhist temple complex is interesting and beautiful. One could easily spend more than a half-day on Miyajima. Highly recommended.
