This private tour is designed for travelers visiting Tokushima by cruise ship. Your government-licensed, English-speaking guide and private vehicle pick you up at Tokushima Port or hotels near the port, a relaxed, efficient way to explore the best of Tokushima in a day. Tokushima, on the island of Shikoku, is famous for the spectacular Naruto whirlpools, among the largest tidal whirlpools in the world. Admire them from a sightseeing boat or the thrilling Uzu-no-Michi glass walkway beneath the Onaruto Bridge. The region is also home to the Otsuka Museum of Art, the lively 400-year-old Awa Odori dance, and a centuries-old indigo (aizome) dyeing tradition you can try yourself. This fully customizable 6-hour private tour lets you choose 2-3 highlights with your guide - the whirlpools, Mount Bizan views, Tokushima Castle, the first temple of the Shikoku Pilgrimage, or local Tokushima ramen. Your friendly local guide tailors the day to your interests.
