What you can expect

  • Looking for a breath of fresh air away from the crowded streets of Osaka and Kyoto?
    Join a friendly local host for a relaxing half-day tour designed to help you unwind like a local—perfect for couples and families!

    Instead of rushing through tourist traps, take a break in the serene surrounded by nature at Akashi Park, a favourite local getaway centred around 400-year-old castle ruins. Enjoy a peaceful walk through the greenery or settle down on a mat for a relaxing park picnic.

    For lunch, enjoy flexibility: choose from excellent local eateries around Akashi Station (such as fresh sushi, Wagyu beef, or a seafood market) or gather fresh local bites for an outdoor picnic in the park.

    The highlight of your journey is the Maiko Marine Promenade. Feel the thrill of walking on a glass-floored walkway 47 metres directly above the ocean inside the world-famous Akashi Kaikyo Bridge! Take in breathtaking 360-degree sea views and soak up the refreshing coastal atmosphere.

    Guided by a host who feels more like a local friend, you'll gain genuine insights into everyday Japanese life and leave with beautiful digital photos of your trip, provided free of charge!
