Overview

If you are staying in Hiroshima and want to enjoy evening activities like the locals, this tour is highly recommended. It is the tour to enjoy bouldering, tachinomi, okonomiyaki, and walking around a local area with a guide. The tour starts at Yokogawa Station, 4 minutes by train from Hiroshima Station. Yokogawa is the district for locals, not for tourists. So, you can feel the different atmosphere from the tourist attractions. The instructor at the bouldering gym speaks English. Beginners, experts and kids can all have fun. Hiroshima is the place where Ginjo Sake was developed. Why don't you try Hiroshima's selected sake? Guests between the ages of 12 and 59 can participate in the tour. For guests under 20 and those who don't drink alcohol, we offer soft drinks. Okonomiyaki is Hiroshima's specialty. We will take you to a retro okonomiyaki restaurant. Your Hiroshima-based guide (a licensed Japanese guide or a trained American guide) will introduce you to various things as you walk.
