A Cultural Day Trip from Tokyo with an English-Speaking Guide
Escape the hustle and bustle of Tokyo for a day and step back in time to Kamakura, the ancient capital and a city brimming with history, serene temples, and iconic landmarks. Our Kamakura One-Day Explorer Tour is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the rich samurai heritage and spiritual atmosphere of this picturesque seaside town. Explore magnificent Buddhist statues, wander through bamboo groves, and discover the charm of traditional Japan with our expert English-speaking guide.
