Make the most of your time in Kochi with a private shore excursion designed for cruise passengers. Enjoy pick-up from Kochi Cruise Port and travel in a private vehicle with a professional driver, exploring the city's most iconic sights at your own pace.
Begin at Katsurahama Beach, a scenic coastal spot famous for its Pacific Ocean views and association with the renowned samurai Sakamoto Ryoma. Continue to Kochi Castle, one of the few original castles remaining in Japan, where the atmosphere of the Edo period can still be experienced. The journey also includes a stop at Hirome Market, a vibrant food market offering an authentic glimpse into local culinary traditions, including regional favourites such as katsuo no tataki. If time allows, visit the Godaisan area to admire panoramic views over Kochi and explore Chikurinji Temple, a historic Buddhist temple surrounded by lush greenery.
Before departure, an English digital guidebook and downloadable audio guide will be provided, featuring useful information about the itinerary and attractions, and the excursion concludes with a return transfer to Kochi Cruise Port in time for your ship's departure.
