Will we see the floating torii gate?

The great torii stands just off Itsukushima Shrine, so you will see it during the visit. Whether it appears to float depends on the tide.

What is the connection between the shrine and the temple?

Itsukushima Shrine is Shinto and Daishoin is Buddhist, and the relationship between the two faiths on this sacred island is a central thread of the walk.

Can I stay on the island afterward?

Yes. The tour ends back at the ferry terminal area, and you are free to keep exploring Miyajima on your own.

Is shrine admission included?

Yes. Admission to Itsukushima Shrine is covered, along with one drink during the tour.
