    【A Note on the Peace Memorial Museum】 We strategically do not conduct guided tours inside the Peace Memorial Museum. We believe the museum experience is deeply personal, requiring silence and private reflection. We highly recommend visiting the museum at your own pace after the tour. Pancho’s Role: Before you enter the museum, Pancho will provide in-depth historical context and moving narratives at the Dome and Cenotaph, ensuring you enter the museum with a much richer understanding and personal connection to the history. Flexibility for Day-Trippers: If you are on a tight schedule (e.g., day trip from Kyoto/Osaka) and wish to prioritize the museum, we can adjust the itinerary and ensure you are dropped off efficiently (e.g., taxi to Hiroshima Station) after your experience.

    Admission ticket free
