What you can expect

  • Join us for a day trip to Himeji Castle and Kobe!

    This walking and public transport tour, including the Shinkansen bullet train, begins with a visit to Himeji Castle. Here you'll find one of only twelve authentic Japanese castles. The keep dates back to 1618. The castle complex offers a glimpse into Japan's feudal past. It's a fascinating history lesson!

    Next, we'll travel to Kobe, where mountains and sea meet in a magnificent way. We'll explore the Sannomiya district, the Nankinmachi Chinatown, and finally, the port with Harborland. Kobe is a beautiful, modern city, full of contrasts and charm. You're sure to love it.

    After this day, you'll know more about Japanese history and be captivated by Kobe's vibrant energy. Are you coming? We're waiting for you!
