// what to expect

This private day tour is designed for travelers arriving at Kobe Port by cruise ship. We pick you up at the port or a nearby hotel, and a government-licensed, experienced multilingual guide accompanies you in a private vehicle - a relaxed, efficient way to discover the best of Kobe and Himeji Castle in a single day. The highlight is Himeji Castle, Japan's most beautiful original castle and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, nicknamed the White Heron Castle. Nearby, the elegant Koko-en gardens offer a tranquil taste of traditional Japan. In Kobe, stroll the waterfront at Meriken Park beneath the iconic red Port Tower, enjoy the lanterns and street food of Nankinmachi Chinatown, explore the Western residences of the Kitano district, view the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, taste sake in the Nada district, and visit Ikuta Shrine. Your private guide tailors the day to your interests and handles all logistics - a worry-free shore excursion for cruise visitors.
