Top Kamakura Shore Excursions

Experience the shrines and temples of Kamakura, one of Japan’s most prominent religious centers, on a 5-hour walking tour. In a small group limited to 10 people, you’ll visit historical sites such as Tokei-ji Temple, Jochi-ji Temple, and Genji-yama Park, while learning about the foundations of Buddhism and Shintoism. Plus, you’ll marvel at Kotokuin (Great Buddha of Kamakura), a 47-foot (14-meter) Buddha statue that dates back to the 13th century.

The old Japanese capital of Kamakura is a must-visit day trip destination. Get the most out of a short visit by joining a walking tour. Start with street food samples, to power you up for the four-plus hours of wandering. Visit ancient temples and shrines set in beautiful manicured gardens and, of course, pay a visit to the Daibutsu, the Great Buddha of Kamakura.

Tour the scenic sights of Kamakura by bicycle, and learn all about the history and culture of the place while you ride from your guide. You’ll see a temple that’s over 1000 years old, tour the gardens with the huge Buddha statue, and travel down the coastline of Yuigahama. Spend some time in a local market, too. This is a gentle, flat, cycle, so it is good for all levels.

This 15 minute helicopter night tour is simply the best of its kind. There is no better way to enjoy the romantic view of Yokohama from other than the sky. Fly over symbolic landmarks in Yokohama such as, Yokohama landmark tower, minato mirai, and Yokohama stadium.
