I live in Japan and Costa Rica, depending on the time of year. I work as a guide and interpreter in both countries. I was born and raised in Kobe, and I would love for you to discover the charm of this beautiful city. I offer support in English and Spanish.

Tour description

The tour begins at Motomachi Station (JR), where we will meet in front of the police station. It is an ideal place to gather and prepare for the walk.

From there, we will walk about 10 minutes to Kobe's Chinatown, called Nankinmachi. We will be able to enjoy its beautiful streets, landscapes, aromas, and foods.


Next, we will walk towards the port, observing the streets and European-style buildings, until we reach Meriken Park, where we will enjoy the view of the iconic Kobe Port Tower.

Additionally, we can visit the Earthquake Monument that occurred in Kobe in 1995, located in the same park.


Afterwards, we will go to see one of the city's most important monuments, "BE KOBE." It is the perfect place to take photos with beautiful landscapes and illuminations. It will be a unique and unforgettable moment.


To end the walk, we will visit Kobe Harborland, where we can enjoy the pleasant atmosphere of its shops, restaurants, and cafes.


This lovely tour, approximately 1.5 to 2 hours long, is ideal both for those visiting Kobe for the first time and for those who want to know and enjoy more of the city.


Additionally, if circumstances allow, we will also try some typical Kobe foods.

Additional information 
For those with reduced mobility, we recommend considering a private tour, as a certain distance is walked during the tour.
