Hiroshima Bay Lunch Cruise

Our attentive and reliable taxi drivers will make sure you arrive safely from your hotel! Take in the gorgeous views along the Seto Inland Sea as you enjoy an elegant full-course French meal and head towards the Itsukushima Shrine World Heritage Site at Miyajima.

Itsukushima Shrine at Miyajima is dedicated to the gods that appeared when Amaterasu, goddess of the sun, and Susanoo, the god of the sea and storms, issued the Kendama Oath on the Takama no Hara (Plain of High Heaven). It has been revered since ancient times as a shrine that serves as protector of the Imperial Family and the nation as well as guardian of the seas.

It is known as one of Japan's three most celebrated scenic sights, along with the pine-clad islands at Matsushima and the sandbar at Amanohashidate. It was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996.
