Things to do in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum

I was desperately searching for a tour for 1 person and I'm so glad I found this! I got Kaori as my tour guide and she was simply wonderful. She reached out to me right away and we started planning the itinerary together. She made sure to consider my needs and we spent a very interesting and great day together. Highly recommend this service - especially for solo travelers who would like to have a knowledgeable local accompany them on their trip.

We loved the tour and even the order of the tour was perfectly planned out. Should be mentioned, the tour guide does not know perfect english but has the ability and made the effort to communicate properly at all times, very talkative and extremely friendly. Knows all the facts and curiosities around the place and was happy to answer any questions. Kept making stops to hydrate and go to the restroom.

Due to the approaching typhoon, it rained all day and the event was canceled. However, I only found out when I arrived at the venue. Klook directly processed the cancellation and refund through their system.

very easy to use just showed QR code and was able to enter. museum is very educational

The museum showcased the history of the city and people through the ages. An eye opening collection…must visit once to see history with ur own eyes

Anyone familiar with Hiroshima's history will surely want to visit the Peace Memorial Museum when they come to Hiroshima. I arrived around 9 AM and already saw busloads of Japanese students arriving at the museum entrance, even more than regular tourists. I was surprised it was so crowded on a Thursday morning, which slightly affected the visitor experience. The entrance is on the right side of the building. If you bought your ticket in advance on Klook, you don't need to pick up a physical ticket; you can just scan the QR code at the entrance. I highly recommend renting an audio guide as well; I found it made the entire visit much more informative! After more than an hour of touring, I felt the fragility of human life, yet also the strength of the human spirit!

For this trip to Hiroshima, I chose to use the Hiroshima Enjoy Pass, not just because it was cost-effective, but because it added a sense of freedom to my journey. From the torii gate floating on the sea at Miyajima to the tranquil moments in Peace Memorial Park, from the remnants of history to the city's power of reconstruction, each stop made me rethink the meaning of life and growth. The Enjoy Pass allowed me to focus more on the scenery before me and my inner feelings, rather than meticulously calculating every ticket and transportation fee.
