[Kochi] Kochi Private Custom Tour with Local Guide
- What to expect
-
Kochi is a relaxed coastal city on Shikoku, known for its history and friendly local atmosphere. A short ride from the cruise port brings you to Kochi Castle, one of the few original Japanese castles with a preserved wooden interior. Enjoy views from the top and explore the Edo-period grounds. Nearby, Hirome Market is a lively food hall where you can sample local dishes like katsuo no tataki, yuzu-flavored specialties, and local sake alongside residents. On Sundays, visit the Kochi Sunday Market, one of Japan’s oldest street markets, with stalls selling produce and crafts. For a calmer stop, see Harimayabashi Bridge, linked to a local love story, or relax at the nearby Botanical Garden. Kochi offers an authentic mix of history, food, and local culture, all close to the port.
