— What You Can Expect —
This one-day tour offers a rich cultural and scenic experience, providing a deeper understanding of Japan’s unique heritage and natural landscapes. It is an ideal choice for travelers looking to explore Kyoto's hidden gems on a single trip.
- Ine Funaya Boathouses
Discover Japan’s renowned waterfront village, famous for its rows of traditional boathouses lining a serene coast. Cruise along the crystal-clear bay, taking in the charm of this ancient fishing village. Watch for seabirds and enjoy feeding the seagulls with shrimp crackers, adding a fun local touch to the experience.
- Funaya Hiyori (Closed Wednesdays)
A niche spot in Ine often featured in lifestyle magazines, Funaya Hiyori is a community-built center where visitors can soak up the stunning views of Ine-gun. This center offers a welcoming space with a visitor info center, a café, and restaurant facilities, showcasing local charm and craftsmanship.
- Amanohashidate
One of Japan’s most iconic landscapes, Amanohashidate in Miyazu City features breathtaking natural scenery. Famous for its rugged landscape and sweeping bay views, a cable car ride lets visitors admire the unique “sky bridge” scenery from above. Stroll the observation decks freely to take in the panoramic views.
- Kyoto’s Miyama Thatched Village
Nestled in Miyama Town, this beautifully preserved village showcases traditional thatched-roof architecture. Known as the Miyama Thatched Village, it provides a glimpse into ancient Japanese building techniques and rural life. Wander through the lanes and feel the tranquil ambiance shaped over centuries.

Experience pristine scenery unlike any other tourist destination at Ine Funaya, one of Japan's most beautiful floating villages.
When taking a leisurely stroll, I recommend Funaya Hiyori, where you can savor the stunning scenery of Ine Bay over a cup of coffee. It's closed every Wednesday, and you can enjoy free time in Ine Town during that day.
Heading to Amanohashidate Observatory, one of the "Three Views of Japan," you can take a cable car to enjoy the vibrant scenery of Amanohashidate (cable car ticket not included: Amanohashidate Observatory Cable Car/Monorail Pass 1000 yen).
Recommended attraction: Ji-eun-ji Temple and Monju-do Hall, a temple for praying for academic success, admission is free.
Explore the Miyama thatched-roof village, known as the Gassho-zukuri village of Kyoto, and experience a sense of seclusion and paradise. Looking out over the entire area, the quiet village and rows of thatched-roof houses create a scene that feels like stepping back into Japan's Edo period.
