・Minimum of 10 participants required.

Departing from Osaka, this one-day trip brings you to some of Japan’s most iconic scenic and cultural sites. Cruise through the picturesque Ine Bay, admire one of Japan’s “Three Scenic Views” at Amanohashidate, and stroll through the fairy-tale-like thatched-roof village of Miyama—all in one unforgettable journey.

Meet at one of Osaka’s most popular landmarks, conveniently located in central Dotonbori. Board a comfortable and air-conditioned coach and begin your relaxing one-day adventure.

Cruise through the picturesque Ine Bay, often called the "Venice of Japan." Ine Bay is a peaceful fishing village lined with over 230 traditional funaya—unique boathouses with boat docks on the first floor and living quarters above. Enjoy a tranquil sightseeing cruise across the bay, offering close-up views of these rare seaside homes nestled between the sea and the hills.

On a clear day, you may even spot seabirds soaring overhead or capture stunning reflections on the water—a picture-perfect experience. Next, head to Amanohashidate, one of Japan’s top three scenic views—a 3.6 km sandbar stretching across Miyazu Bay like a natural bridge.

Ride either a ropeway or a single-seat lift (your choice) to the famous Kasamatsu Park observatory. From here, enjoy a panoramic view of the sandbar that appears like a “flying dragon.” Don’t miss the chance to try the quirky "matanozoki" pose—bending over to look between your legs—which is said to bring good luck.

Enjoy a delicious local specialty featuring sashimi from the nearby fishing port, served with miso soup and side dishes. After lunch, step into the mountain village of Miyama, a hidden gem in Kyoto Prefecture, home to dozens of well-preserved kayabuki (thatched-roof) houses.

Dating back to the Edo and Meiji periods, many of these traditional homes are still inhabited today, offering insight into Japan’s harmonious way of living with nature. Strolling through the village is like stepping back in time. Depending on the season, enjoy cherry blossoms, lush green hills, autumn foliage, or snow-covered rooftops.

You can also visit folk museums or browse handcrafted local souvenirs—an ideal place to experience authentic rural Japan. Arrive back in Osaka in the early evening. You may continue exploring Dotonbori, enjoy dinner, or shop at your leisure.
