Find a Travel Companion
in Hiroshima
From atomic devastation to vibrant renewal, a city that turned unimaginable tragedy into the world's most powerful message of peace.
Travel better in Hiroshima with the right person
Split costs
A solo traveller in Hiroshima spends about ~$40–160 USD a day. Accommodation, transport, guided tours and day trips all cost less split two ways.
Stay safer
A travel companion means someone knows your plans, can help navigate emergencies, and makes you less of a target in unfamiliar areas of Hiroshima.
Go deeper
The best experiences in Hiroshima (the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot) are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.
Matched by style
Roammate filters by travel pace, budget range, and interests, so you connect with someone genuinely compatible, not just whoever's in the same hostel dorm.
Meeting someone new in Hiroshima
Agreeing to travel with someone you met online is a real decision. Here is what sits between matching and meeting.
Verified profiles
Travellers can verify their identity with a government-ID and liveness check, and verified accounts carry a badge you can filter on.
Chat before you commit
Message in the app and get a sense of someone first. Nothing obliges you to share contact details, or to meet at all.
Report and block
If someone makes you uncomfortable, report or block them at any point, before or after you have arranged anything.
Emergency SOS
Add emergency contacts before you travel. If something goes wrong in Hiroshima, raise an alert to them from inside the app.

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Respect at Peace Park
Peace Memorial Park is a place of remembrance for over 140,000 people. Speak quietly, do not pose casually for photos at the memorials, and approach the cenotaph and Dome with the solemnity they deserve.
Fold a Paper Crane
The paper crane (orizuru) is Hiroshima's symbol of peace, inspired by Sadako Sasaki. Fold one at Orizuru Tower or bring your own to leave at the Children's Peace Monument. It is a meaningful gesture recognised by the city.
Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Hiroshima travel guide.
