Miyajima
The Floating Torii Gate Standing majestically in the sea, Miyajima's iconic vermillion torii gate creates one of Japan's most breathtaking photo opportunities. This grand gateway, which appears to float on water during high tide, has served as the sacred entrance to Itsukushima Shrine for centuries, welcoming countless pilgrims who arrived by boat. Capture stunning photos of this UNESCO World Heritage site while your guide shares fascinating stories about its spiritual significance and the ancient pilgrimage routes through the Seto Inland Sea.

5.00A fun, informative and entertaining day. Everything was arranged and looked after by Liron. A great guild who knew the area, history, and travel tips very well. The train ride and ferry to and from location was a breeze with Lorin’s direction.

5.00Wonderful experience as a tourist to have a guide to efficiently cover all the things we wanted to do. And everything is included, it was particularly hot today, so.we had several breaks for a sit down and water and finished the day with a fabulous traditional lunch of okonomyaki , which was delicious. Liron was very informative about all the places we visited. The Courtesy bus down, was wonderful as we had done a lot of steps in the heat. Would have probably preferred lunch a bit earlier, but it just doesn't work with the schedule; and tbh it was a wonderful way to finish off the day (so maybe bring some snacks just in case )
Sunshine and Fun
