Activity
It's like the world of Ghibli. Stroll through this lovely town!
This city is filled with beautiful streams and charming buildings, including traditional townhouses. We'll be introducing hidden gems that only locals know.
Nagahama's Attraction (1): Port town on Lake Biwa
The largest lake in Japan, Lake Biwa, has long been known as a key trading hub and a treasure trove of natural blessings. You can also enjoy a cruise to the uninhabited island of Chikubu Island, a breathtaking spot selected as one of "Japan's Top 100 Sunset Spots," within walking distance.
Nagahama's Attraction (2): Nostalgic castle town
Nagahama's value as a merchant city is underscored by its long-standing shops and well-preserved 200-year-old machiya houses. Its retro townscape sets it apart. Unlike the bustling crowds of Kyoto and Osaka, Nagahama provides a more relaxed atmosphere, allowing tourists to leisurely explore and enjoy sightseeing at their own pace.
Local staff who know the area well will guide you
We will take you to charming spots, from standard sightseeing courses to hidden gems that are not featured in travel magazines.
Capture memorable photos that can also be posted on social media
A skilled photographer, whose talent is often showcased in various posters and magazines, will capture photographs at each spot using the guide's digital single-lens reflex camera. (Photography with participants' cameras is also possible)
