This tour will take you to the fascinating sites of Kamakura and Enoshima.
Visiting shrines and temples, you can also get Goshuin.
Goshuin is the seal of a pilgrimage shrine or temple.
At each office of the shrine or temple, stamping a pilgrimage seal is available, including handwriting in calligraphy on Goshuin book.
You are supposed to get good luck and happiness.

Riding with Enoden, which is the beautiful, old-style train, you can see the fascinating view of the astonishing Sho-nan Ocean and the island of Enoshima from the train windows.
Enoden runs on the vehicle road in some areas and is lined with eaves of private houses in the downtown area.

As I am a Japanese language teacher I will teach you useful Japanese tips during the tour.
