Product Info

Looking to easily travel from Osaka or Kyoto to northern Kyoto to explore coastal scenery unlike anything in the city? This one-day private tour to Amanohashidate and Ine Funaya is perfect for travelers who want to avoid complex transportation and visit Kyoto by the Sea in greater comfort. With a Chinese-speaking driver-guide familiar with the Kansai and northern Kyoto routes, you will depart from your hotel or a designated location and head straight to the Amanohashidate and Ine areas, reducing the inconvenience of transfers, waiting, and long-distance walking. Amanohashidate, listed as one of the Three Views of Japan alongside Matsushima and Miyajima, is famous for its pine-covered sandbar spanning Miyazu Bay. Travelers can head to Amanohashidate View Land or Kasamatsu Park to overlook the breathtaking view of the sandbar and bay from above, or experience the classic 'upside-down' view, known as the Flying Dragon View. Those who enjoy ancient temples and strolling can also arrange time around Chion-ji Temple to experience the history and local charm of the Amanohashidate area.

In the afternoon, head to Ine Funaya to admire one of Japan's few remaining intact boat house settlements. The houses here have their first floors facing the bay for boat docking, while the second floors serve as living spaces, creating a unique 'living with the sea' fishing village landscape. Travelers can take a leisurely stroll along the boat house streets, head to Funaya no Sato Park for a panoramic view of Ine Bay, or, depending on the weather and operations, take an optional Ine Bay boat tour to appreciate the rows of wooden boat houses and the tranquil bay from the water.

Compared to using public transportation, Amanohashidate and Ine are located in northern Kyoto, where transport schedules and transfers can be inconvenient. A private tour significantly improves efficiency and comfort. The entire trip is by private vehicle without sharing with strangers, and you can flexibly adjust the duration and sequence of your stay based on the day's weather, road conditions, crowds, physical stamina, and dining needs. Whether you want to photograph the Three Views of Japan, explore a hidden fishing village, taste Tango seafood, or plan an in-depth one-day trip away from the crowds of Kyoto city, this Amanohashidate and Ine Funaya private tour ensures a more relaxed, comfortable, and personalized experience.
