Overview of your Kobe tour:

I'll pick you up. Then hop to the old-style Tsutenkaku tower and the Shinsekai historic area. Head up to Osaka Castle. Enjoy walking, pics, etc. there awhile. (Cherry blossoms, in season only!) Train to Umeda. Maybe take a tour bus that loops Umeda if we have time. Then walk to the Sky Building, go up to "garden" on top. (Try to catch sunset up there if the weather is nice!) Go to Doutombouri riverfront area. See the famous "Glico man" sign and the Don Quijote shop/ferris wheel. I'll drop you off there, maybe you can go find dinner in the area. Lots of restaurant choices in this "glitzy" tourist area. Other options and choices as you like on the day. I'm flexible.

If coming to Kobe/Osaka by ship, I can easily find out where your ship actually arrives, and meet the group there. (Note: some ships tell you "Osaka" when it's actually Port of Kobe. Please tell me the ship name.) I might be able to meet at your hotel, or you might have a better idea where to meet.

  • You can request a different meeting location (for example, your hotel) during the checkout process.
