Private Himeji Castle & Seto Inland Sea Gourmet Drive
In the morning, enjoy a guided walk tour of Himeji Castle, where you’ll be able to fully explore and conquer the castle. Afterward, hop into a minivan for a scenic drive along the Seto Inland Sea coastline. Visit the renowned Nadagiku Sake Brewery in the Harima region, famous for its sake production, where you’ll tour the brewery and enjoy a sake tasting, followed by lunch. Next, explore the historic “Maruyasu,” a former ryokan built over 90 years ago, and then continue your drive along the picturesque Seto Inland Sea coastline. If preferred, the drive can be replaced with a cycling tour—please let us know in advance. The final destination of your journey is the charming, historic streets of Murotsu, known since ancient times as “Muro-no-Tomari.”
