Highlights

This isn’t a scripted sightseeing tour. Your host will tailor the day around your interests, from waterfront promenades and bustling markets to peaceful shrines and quiet backstreets. Every moment is designed to reflect your pace and curiosity.


After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire so we can match you with a like-minded host. They’ll reach out to suggest an itinerary and confirm a meeting point. The route remains flexible, with time to pause, wander, and explore the real Kobe.
