Kochi 6hr Private Tour with Government Licensed Guide and Vehicle

About this activity

Discover Kochi, the gateway to southern Shikoku, on this fully private 6-hour tour led by a friendly, government-licensed guide with a private vehicle and driver. Famed for its laid-back charm, Pacific coastline, and samurai history, Kochi rewards curious travelers. Climb the original wooden keep of Kochi Castle, one of only twelve to survive in Japan, and stand beneath the bronze statue of local hero Sakamoto Ryoma above Katsurahama Beach. Sample seared bonito and sake at lively Hirome Market, cross the storied red Harimaya Bridge, and visit the serene Chikurin-ji Temple with its sweeping Godaisan views. Because the tour is completely private, the itinerary is flexible and built around you: travel at your own pace, linger wherever you like, and ask your guide anything about local history, culture, and food. With comfortable door-to-door transport and a knowledgeable local by your side, you'll enjoy the very best of Kochi in one relaxed and memorable day.
