What To Expect
Come with us to discover the rich history of Himeji Castle on a half-day private tour by public transport and on foot!
We meet at Shin-Osaka or Kyoto station and then take a super rapid service on the JR Tokaido-Sanyo local line to Himeji. The guide can tell you about the Keihanshin Metropolis along the way and we see all the diverse and varied landscapes. How exciting!
We then visit the famous Himeji Castle, one of the 12 castles still intact and authentic in Japan. Himeji Castle dates from 1346. It is a symbol of Japan's feudal past, and you can explore its keep as it was in 1618. Your passionate guide, expert in Japanese history, or even licensed, will share with you fascinating information about the history of the castle and the ancient political landscape of Japan.
Enjoy a perfect blend of history, culture and stunning architecture in this unique immersion! Are you coming? We are waiting for you!
