Review for: Kure Bay Battleship Tour Ticket

My visit to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum was a profound experience. The overall flow of the exhibits was well-planned, and the content was rich and educational. The presentation of artifacts, videos, and text truly helped visitors grasp the weight of history and the importance of peace. The museum environment was clean and comfortable, making for a smooth visit without feeling overly crowded. Booking through Klook was also very convenient, saving time on ticket queues. Overall, it's a thought-provoking attraction well worth visiting, and I highly recommend setting aside time to go.

Redemption was easy; I just went to the site to exchange for a physical ticket. It was a rare and wonderful experience to see the Japan Self-Defense Forces ships up close.

Review for: Kure Bay Battleship Tour Ticket

It was great to see the Maritime Self-Defense Force personnel at work and to view the ships and submarines. It's definitely best to sit on the left side. If the sun is strong, sunglasses and sunscreen are a must! However, as a Korean, I did feel a bit uncomfortable due to the presence of the Rising Sun Flag. The Shine Muscat yogurt inside the building was delicious.

By keeping to the schedule, it was a great ship tour without any crowds. I've wanted to visit Kure for many years, and the ship tour was absolutely fantastic!

A great short 45min boat tour. We saw many ships and submarines. The tour is conducted in Japanese, but we were given a booklet in English to give us the information about the ships. Recommend.

The tour is entirely in Japanese, but we were aware of that. There were many ships to see, and it was very interesting. Although we accidentally booked for a different time, we were still able to use the voucher for a later slot. Thank you again for that.

You can get a close look at the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force for little money, and it's very enjoyable.

It happened to be a rainy day, and although we could only stay inside the boat cabin, there was still plenty to see!

Review for: Kure Bay Battleship Tour Ticket

When taking the battleship cruise, you can choose to sit on the upper or lower deck. If you're riding in the summer, we highly recommend choosing the lower deck because it's air-conditioned, making it very cool and comfortable. Although the view from the upper deck is excellent, it can be very sunny and hot. We suggest that travelers who want to take photos apply sunscreen or return to the lower deck to rest after taking their pictures.
