Full-Day Private Guided Tour to Amanohashidate and Ine

10 hours (approximately)
Offered in: Japanese and 2 more

Come with us to visit Amanohashidate and Ine, using public transportation and on foot! We will explore one of Japan’s three most scenic landscapes and a timeless fishing village.

The morning begins in Amanohashidate, a famous pine-covered sandbar whose name literally means “Bridge to Heaven.” From the panoramic viewpoint to a peaceful walk between the sea and the bay, the atmosphere here feels calm and almost unreal.

In the afternoon, we head to Ine, a village unique in Japan, renowned for its funaya—traditional boathouses built right on the water’s edge. Here, the sea is part of everyday life. Strolling through the village and enjoying views from the bay by boat, Ine reveals an authentic Japan that is simple, warm, and deeply human.

Blending nature, heritage, and local life, this day trip is perfect for discovering a different side of the Kyoto region, far from the crowds, at the gentle rhythm of the sea. Are you coming? We are waiting for you!
