After meeting in Osaka in the morning, travel comfortably to the Nada Gogo sake district, one of Japan’s most famous sake-producing areas.

In the afternoon, stroll through the charming Kitano district, famous for its preserved Western-style residences built by foreign merchants in the late 19th century. Walk along the hillside streets and visit iconic buildings such as the Weathercock House and Moegi House. From higher viewpoints, enjoy scenic views overlooking Kobe Port and the city below.
The day concludes with a relaxing café experience, an essential part of Kobe’s lifestyle. Step into a long-established coffee house and savor a cup of freshly brewed coffee paired with a classic dessert such as pudding or cheesecake. Take this time to unwind and soak in the elegant atmosphere before returning to Osaka in the early evening.
