This immersive Ise tour is the only guided experience that follows the traditional pilgrimage order—starting at the Outer Shrine (Gekū), dedicated to the deity of daily life, and continuing to the Inner Shrine (Naikū), Japan’s most sacred Shinto site devoted to the sun goddess Amaterasu. Led by a knowledgeable local guide, you'll gain insight into the spiritual meaning, myths, and architectural beauty of Ise Jingu, a place of national reverence for over 2,000 years.
