If you want to experience traditional Japanese culture and ambience, take this tour! Visited cultural gems, experienced a traditional Japanese lunch, visited the interior of a grand mansion and gardens, and then sat in the serenity of that garden with marcha. Our guide Suzy was well versed and gracious. It was a relaxing way to experience Japanese culture.

Thank you very much for your kind words.
I’m so happy to hear that walking through the city helped you discover the special charm of this area.
I hope your memories of Shimonoseki and Moji stay with you for a long time, and I would be honored to welcome you again whenever you return to Japan.

Thank you so much for writing a review!
I hope you had a wonderful trip and got back to home safely.
It was really a delighted day to have you in Shimonoseki!

Our guide Rei took us all over Moji. It was raining so we amended our itinerary. Took a ferry and cabs. Our most favorite thing was having tea by ourselves overlooking the garden and enjoying the rain. Truly a special time. We viewed shrines and loved our curry lunch.
Rei was lovely. She had lived in Lexington Kentucky and her English was superb. Would highly recommend her.
