Tour Overview

If you don't like to be a member of the big traveling group and if you can choose your entire days, this tour will make the wishes come true. You can experience the trip just as if you were traveling with a local Japanese friend. The following is the proposed itinerary.
-
First, upon arriving at Itsukushima Shrine of Miyajima, you purify your body and offer a prayer to the deities. Next, you draw a fortune teller paper slip (omikuji) to see your luck. Then, you learn about the essence of Shinto. When Japan was born, The Shinto was born.
Next when visiting the temple, you light an incense stick and a candle. On your way back, you can enjoy some Momiji Manju maple-leaf cakes along with a cup of green tea.
-
Finally, you'll visit the Peace Memorial Park. You go around several key monuments including the Atomic Bomb Dome. You then have a workshop to make a folded paper crane for the symbol of Peace and dedicate it to the Children's Peace Monument as the cultural experience. As the final destination, you enter the Peace Memorial Museum.
