Detailed itinerary

1

Let’s meet in front of "Colette Mare" near Sakuragicho Station OR at the Osanbashi Pier taxi stand.
Please choose one of these two meeting points in advance.

Please select 3 to 4 options from the itinerary, and we’ll decide the order on the day based on the weather.

2

Option: 1
Iseyama Kotaijingu Shrine enshrines Amaterasu Omikami, the Sun Goddess, who is regarded as the most revered deity in Japan and is the same deity worshipped at Ise Grand Shrine, the most sacred Shinto shrine in the country.
Because of this, the shrine is often referred to as “the Ise Shrine of the Kanto region,” and many people visit it to receive the same spiritual blessings without traveling all the way to Ise.

The shrine is located on a hilltop, offering a pleasant open atmosphere and panoramic views of Yokohama, which adds to its calm and refreshing ambiance.

Unlike many major tourist sites, the shrine is usually quiet and uncrowded, making it an ideal place for visitors to experience traditional Japanese culture, enjoy a peaceful moment, and feel a strong sense of harmony between history, nature, and the modern city.
Please note that, due to the hilltop setting and stair access, the shrine may not be suitable for visitors using wheelchairs.

3

Option: 2
Osanbashi Pier is one of the historic ports where Japan first opened to the world, and it has played an important role in Yokohama’s development as an international harbor.

The rooftop features a wide wooden deck that creates an open space, giving visitors the feeling of standing on a ship floating on the sea. From here, you can enjoy panoramic views of Minato Mirai’s skyline, the Red Brick Warehouse, and the Yokohama Bay Bridge, making it a popular viewing spot both during the day and at night.

The pier is designed with gentle slopes and ramps, making it easily accessible for wheelchair users and strollers.

Its flowing architecture blurs the boundary between indoors and outdoors, and it is highly regarded both in Japan and internationally as a building that blends seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.

On clear days, visitors can even see Tokyo Skytree and Mount Fuji in the distance.

4

Option: 3 The Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse is a lively cultural landmark where history and modern life come together.

Built in the early 20th century, the warehouses supported port logistics and international trade, and survived both the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and World War II. Their strong red-brick structures remain as symbols of Yokohama’s resilience and modernization.

Today, the restored buildings house stylish cafés, restaurants, and shops. The open waterfront plaza hosts seasonal events and markets, creating a vibrant atmosphere throughout the year. With views of the sea and the Minato Mirai skyline, it is also one of Yokohama’s most popular photo spots, loved by visitors day and night.

5

Option: 4 Yokohama Chinatown is the largest Chinatown in Japan and one of the most lively in the world. Its history began in 1859, when Yokohama opened its port to foreign trade and Chinese merchants settled in the area. Over time, the community grew and developed into a vibrant district rich in culture, food, and tradition.

Today, Chinatown is known for its colorful gates, bustling streets, and countless restaurants offering everything from classic dim sum to popular street food. Visitors can also enjoy shops selling traditional goods and sweets, as well as temples that reflect the area’s cultural roots. It is a place where history and modern energy blend naturally.

For those who are interested, palm reading can also be enjoyed as an optional experience.
Please note that the palm reading fee is not included.

6

Option: 5 Yamashita Park is a beautiful waterfront park that represents Yokohama’s history and seaside charm. Opened in 1930 after the Great Kanto Earthquake, it was built on reclaimed land as a symbol of recovery. Visitors can relax on harbor-facing benches, enjoy views of the sea, and see the historic Hikawa Maru, a ship once used on the Seattle route. The Rose Garden, filled with roses linked to Yokohama’s sister cities, blooms in spring and autumn, making the park a popular and photogenic spot.

7

Option 6: Yokohama Motomachi is a refined shopping street with a history dating back to 1859, when Yokohama opened its port to international trade. As foreign residents settled nearby, Motomachi developed as a district that supported their daily lives.

From the late 19th century, the area became known for Western-style boutiques, tailor shops, bakeries, and cafés. Many long-established family-run shops, some operating for generations, continue to preserve this legacy while maintaining high standards of quality and craftsmanship.

Today, Motomachi blends tradition with elegance. Carefully regulated storefronts create a harmonious streetscape, offering visitors a calm and sophisticated atmosphere where Yokohama’s international history can still be felt.

8

Option 7: If you choose this option, we recommend saving it for the end of the tour. The guide may assist with restaurant reservations and menu explanations, after which the tour may conclude.
Please note that food and drink expenses are not included.

Noge is a lively, nostalgic district known as one of Yokohama’s most famous local drinking areas. Located near Sakuragicho Station, it offers a strong contrast to the modern Minato Mirai area, with narrow streets full of character.

Developed after World War II, Noge is especially known for its many small izakaya and yakitori shops, where guests can enjoy local food and drinks in an intimate, friendly atmosphere. With a mix of long-established taverns and newer creative bars, Noge offers an authentic taste of Yokohama’s nightlife and local culture.
