Itinerary Highlights:

Amanohashidate

Located in Miyazu City, Kyoto Prefecture, Amanohashidate is a 3.6-kilometer-long sandbar in Miyazu Bay. This narrow strip of land, ranging from 20 to 170 meters in width, is covered with approximately 8,000 pine trees and some broad-leaved trees, resembling a bridge stretching into the sky, hence the name Amanohashidate (Bridge in Heaven). This unique landscape, formed over thousands of years, attracts numerous tourists every year. Not only has it been designated as one of the Three Views of Japan since ancient times, but it is also a frequent entry on lists such as the 100 Best Pine Groves, 100 Best Roads, and 100 Best Historical Parks in Japan. You can enjoy Amanohashidate by taking in the panoramic view from above, or by walking or cycling across the sandbar to experience its unique scenery.

Kasamatsu Park

An excellent observation deck overlooking Amanohashidate, where you can see the 'Ichimonji' view. If you look at Amanohashidate through your legs (bending over and looking backward), it appears as if a bridge is suspended in the sky. After arriving at Kasamatsu Park, it is recommended to see the 'Kasamatsu' pine tree and the observation deck known as the 'birthplace of the upside-down view'. You can reach Kasamatsu Park by taking a cable car or chairlift from Fuchu Station, located next to Kono Shrine.

Motoise Kono Shrine

Motoise Kono Shrine was once called 'Hisa-no-miya' and enshrined the deity Toyouke Omikami long before the Ise Jingu was built. During the era of Emperor Sujin, Amaterasu Omikami moved from Yamato Province and was enshrined at this shrine for four years.

After the completion of Ise Jingu, Amaterasu Omikami and Toyouke Omikami were moved to Ise Jingu, and this shrine became known as the 'Furusato of the Ise Deities'. Later, it was given the name 'Kono-miya' because it enshrines Hikohoakari-no-mikoto, who traveled to the Dragon Palace in a bamboo basket. Located below Kasamatsu Park, it is an Amanohashidate attraction that many travelers visit on their way to Kasamatsu Park. The approach and the white torii gate are highlights of the shrine. The shrine buildings within the grounds are antique and elegant, decorated with five-colored 'sutama' stones representing the five elements (blue, yellow, red, white, and black). These same five-colored stones can only be seen at Ise Jingu and Kono Shrine, making it a highly historical and prestigious shrine in the region.

Ine Town

Ine Town is located in the northern part of Kyoto Prefecture, on the northeastern side of the Tango Peninsula. It is a town that coexists with the sea and is a member of the 'Most Beautiful Villages in Japan' alliance. The Ine Funaya, which have existed since the mid-Edo period, are local architectural features with over 230 boat houses distributed around Ine Bay. Built along the sea, the town has earned the reputation of being the 'Venice of Japan' due to its unique atmosphere and beautiful scenery. It has also been designated as an Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings in Japan.

Ine Funaya

The boat houses of the seaside town of Ine have a history of 1,700 years. These Funaya were once the homes of fishermen, with the first floor serving as a garage for boats and the second floor as living quarters. After returning from fishing at sea, boats could be driven directly inside, and the space could also be used as a drying area for making dried fish. Currently, about 230 boat houses are preserved, creating a rare and unique landscape in the world.

Purchase Notice

1. Orders must be placed at least one day prior to departure.

2. Please specify the pick-up and drop-off locations and addresses when placing your order.

3. Please be sure to leave your contact information (phone number and LINE ID or WeChat, and enable friend request settings). Our local staff in Japan will contact you immediately. If we are unable to reach you due to your own issues, we will not be able to issue a refund or make any changes.

4. Please be sure to provide the correct number of passengers (adults and children) and the number of pieces of luggage.

5. Please be sure to order a vehicle that matches the number of passengers. If the number of passengers does not match the vehicle, the merchant has the right to refuse your order. If, upon arrival at the site, there are passengers or luggage that do not meet the regulations and exceed the passenger capacity, resulting in safety issues, the driver has the right to terminate the service that day, and the merchant will not be held responsible and will not provide a refund.

6. The destinations for the private charter car will be planned and informed by the passenger in advance. Any issues with the route will be coordinated and communicated to you in advance. Passengers are solely responsible for any delays or other problems caused by unclear self-arranged itineraries.

7. If you have a lot of luggage or it is large, we recommend that you book a suitable vehicle to accommodate all passengers and luggage, so as to avoid overcrowding and inconvenience. If the vehicle cannot be driven or other additional costs are incurred due to failure to meet the reasonable number of passengers and luggage capacity of the vehicle, the passengers shall bear the costs themselves.

8. The vehicle models listed are for reference only. If we cannot provide the vehicle models and color requirements listed above, we will arrange for a vehicle of the same class instead.

9. Japanese law requires children under 6 years old to use child safety seats (children need to occupy 1-1.5 seats). Please inform us in advance of the number of child seats needed. One safety seat will be provided free of charge. For each additional child seat, an additional 2,000 yen will be charged, which must be paid to the driver before boarding.

10. The vehicle usage time is within 10 hours (based on the time from the scheduled time to the time of getting off at the end of the trip). If the usage exceeds 10 hours, an overtime fee of 2,500 yen per 30 minutes and 5,000 yen per 60 minutes will be charged (after the trip, it will be calculated in 30-minute increments and should be paid to the driver at the end of the trip).

11. Due to road regulations, drivers must wait at parking lots at each stop on the itinerary. The parking fees incurred during this period will be paid by the passengers. The driver will advance the expenses during the trip and collect the parking fees from the passengers by presenting the receipt after the trip.

12. If traffic congestion caused by traffic accidents, natural causes, or traffic control results in overtime, an overtime fee will still be charged. The overtime fee will be shared equally by the passenger and the tour company and will be handed over to the driver after the passenger is dropped off at the hotel at the end of the trip.

13. If you wish to take the Arashiyama Scenic Railway, it is recommended that you take it from Arashiyama Station to Kameoka Station and then proceed to JR Umahori Station to take the JR line back to Saga-Arashiyama Station. If you require a driver to pick you up from Kameoka Station, you will need to pay an additional 5,000 yen for transportation and toll fees, which should be paid to the driver after the trip (as the journey from Arashiyama Station to Kameoka Station involves taking the highway and takes 40 minutes).

14. In case of adverse weather conditions such as typhoons or blizzards, a decision on whether to cancel the trip will be made one day before departure (18:00 local time), and you will be notified by email or telephone message at any time thereafter.

15. If the trip cannot be completed due to force majeure or unforeseen circumstances such as weather conditions or emergencies, all fees will be refunded without any penalty for breach of contract.

Reminders

In the event of inclement weather such as typhoons or snowstorms, a decision on whether to cancel the tour will be made 1 day(s) before departure (local time 18:00). Notifications will then be sent via email
