Overview

Escape the crowds and dive into the natural beauty and culture of coastal Kyoto on this unforgettable private tour.
Start your journey with a scenic chairlift ride up to Amanohashidate Viewland, where you’ll enjoy a spectacular view of the famous sandbar—nicknamed the “Bridge to Heaven.” It’s one of Japan’s top three sights, and the panoramic views are truly postcard-perfect!

Then, head to the charming village of Ine, known for its rare and beautiful funaya (boathouses built over the water). Step aboard a traditional Ine fishing boat and cruise along the peaceful bay.

Don’t miss the fun! Experience the exciting seagull feeding activity—hold out a snack and watch them swoop and glide just inches away!

With a mix of stunning views, local culture, and hands-on fun, this tour is ideal for couples, families, and anyone who wants to see a more authentic side of Japan.
