Here’s an overview of your tour

Are you excited about an unforgettable adventure designed for cruise travelers? Come and join me for a meticulously tailored journey that highlights the best of Himeji and Kobe, two stunning cities situated along Japan's coast. From port pickup to premium dining, every moment promises discovery and delight.

Your adventure will start with a warm welcome at the port. You don't have to worry about the logistics!

Our first stop is the magnificent Himeji Castle, a timeless symbol of Japan's rich history and the largest castle in Japan. As we wander through its majestic halls and sprawling grounds, you'll be transported back in time to an era of samurai and feudal lords.

Returning to Kobe, our adventure continues with a curated tour of the city's most iconic attractions. You'll experience the essence of Kobe in all its diversity and splendor, from the scenic beauty of Harborland to the serene ambiance of Ikuta Shrine.

But no visit to Kobe is complete without savoring its most famous culinary treasure - Kobe beef. As the day draws to a close, I will indulge your senses at a premium Kobe beef restaurant. You'll relish succulent cuts of marbled perfection, prepared to tantalize your taste buds and leave you craving more.

But I understand that every traveler is unique. That's why the tour is fully customizable to suit your preferences and interests. Whether you're a history buff, a foodie, or a nature enthusiast, I'll tailor the experience for you. Just let me know your interests, and I'll craft a bespoke itinerary that showcases the best of Kobe and Himeji.

Booking Information: To ensure a seamless experience, I kindly request that you inform me of your arrival details in advance. Please send me a message with your cruise ship itinerary, and I'll handle the rest!
