Cruise Stop-Over: Private Custom Day trip to Kyoto from Kobe Port

4.5 · 18 Reviews

Excellent Quality

Overview

Take the train to Kyoto with your local host and discover another side of Japanese culture in its 8th-century capital. From the moment you step off the ship, everything is taken care of — including a private taxi from Kobe Port to the station and return train transport to and from Kyoto. Explore the cobbled streets of Gion, Kyoto’s traditional entertainment district, or wander through the famous flame-colored torii tunnel of Fushimi Inari Shrine. Perhaps you’ll visit the Arashiyama bamboo grove in western Kyoto or sip freshly brewed sake in Fushimi. At dusk, when paper lanterns begin to glow, you might even glimpse a geisha drifting silently through the streets. Before you meet, you'll receive a short Personalization Form so we can tailor the experience to your interests and pair you with a local guide. The true luxury is having their expertise and undivided attention, with the flexibility to explore at your own pace and focus on what interests you most.
