Our Kochi Tour
Kochi's four essential highlights in one private shore excursion · 4.5 hours
Travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned private vehicle and discover Kochi's four must-see highlights in just 4.5 hours. Designed especially for cruise guests, this private tour gives you smooth door-to-door transportation from the cruise port, without the stress of unfamiliar public transport, complicated schedules, or transfers.
Your first stop is Katsurahama Beach, one of Kochi's most famous scenic destinations. Enjoy beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean and learn about Sakamoto Ryoma, one of Kochi's most important historical figures, and his role in the Meiji Restoration.
From Katsurahama, continue to Chikurinji Temple, one of the sacred temples on the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage. Stroll through its peaceful, green grounds before heading to Kochi Castle, one of Japan's few original castles with Edo-period buildings still standing. As you explore, discover the stories of the Tosa Domain, samurai culture, and Kochi's history.
Your final stop is lively Hirome Market, where you can sample Kochi's local specialities at your own expense — including seared bonito, sushi, fried dishes, dumplings, and more. This complete experience brings together Kochi's scenery, history, culture, and local cuisine, followed by a timely return to the cruise port for your ship's departure.
