Kyoto Full-Day Excursion from Kobe (Osaka) Port

Kyoto Full-Day Excursion from Kobe (Osaka) Port

This tour is planned for tourists from Kobe or Osaka Port. Kyoto, Nara, Himeji, Hiroshima, and Osaka are within a day-trip zone. Kyoto is recommendable for fans of Japanese history and culture. Beautiful scenery, Gion walking, and food are also fun to experience. Nara is a sanctuary for Shintoists and Buddhists, inviting you to deep spiritualism. In Osaka, you will enjoy food and young energy. People are friendly. Osaka Castle is a must-see spot. Himeji Castle is an ideal place for history fans—a half-day tour. Going around Himeji and Osaka Castle is possible, but it is a little busy. From time to time, cruise clients on the same ship ask for guides around Kyoto separately. I may ask you to share the tour with another group. In that case, your tour cost will be lower. As cruise excursions have time limitations, please contact me individually.
