Step into the everyday life of Katsuura—a small port town known not for sightseeing spots, but for its people, flavours, and stories.
In this experience, your bilingual guide Stella, deeply connected to the community, will show you the town not as a tourist spot, but as a place of daily life. Stroll scenic seaside streets, visit shops locals use, meet the warm-hearted people behind them, and taste flavours rooted in local living.
Along the way, Stella shares the story of Katsuura’s transformation—from its golden age of tuna fishing and tourism to today’s quiet revival—woven into the townscape.
After the walk, enjoy a locally sourced lunch with fresh tuna and conversation with your guide. Through these exchanges, you’ll gain deeper insight into Japanese society and culture.
This isn’t a tour that just shows you sights—it’s a journey of real encounters, cultural understanding, and connection with the community. All in a way that supports the town sustainably and leaves lasting memories.

5.00Stella's guided tour through Kii-Katsuura's streets was one of the highlights of our Japan Honeymoon. We walked a couple of days of the Kumano Kodo, and this was such a fantastic end to our walk. We loved learning about the history of the town, and chatting with the locals gave us such a better understanding of this beautiful and resilient town. Stella is amicable, warm and an excellent guide, we couldn't have asked for a better person to learn from!! We will tell all our friends to visit this beautiful corner of Japan and book a tour with Stella. Thank you Stella, gracias por esta hermosa experiencia!!!!

5.00My partner and I had a wonderful time with Stella touring the town!! It was so great to learn a little more about who lives in town and how they contribute to making this village so special! Stella has wonderful attention to detail and quick communication skills, which made everything easy from picking up our bento lunch (which everyone should do since the price is so great and it’s so delicious!) to organizing logistics. I am so grateful and lucky we did this tour as it’s my favorite activity we’ve done in our two weeks in Japan!! Shout out to it being a private tour which really helped getting all our questions answered and to all the people we met as they are all so incredibly friendly and kind!! Thank you so much!!
A wonderful tour of a town with a rich history and great bites!

5.00Stella was a fantastic tour guide! She gave us a walkthrough of this town while telling us the history of it. We were also introduced to some locals that come back to this town to start their own businesses or tend to family. The picnic at the end was amazing! We ate from some of her favorite shops and talked about our experiences. Overall, I think this was a great way to get to know more about this town that has so much history to it and I hope more people come to visit it!
Amazing and friendly tour of local area!

5.00Stella is amazing, I had such a lovely morning and the guide was really well thought out. I learned a lot about the local history and loved going around and meeting all the locals. Not to mention the amazing picnic we had at the end! I could not recommend Stella and this tour enough!

5.00Stella gave my dad and I a nice 2 hour private tour of Katsuura in English. The footbath was peaceful and relaxing. Also, as part of the tour she gathered tasters for our picnic which was also quite nice. We later went back to buy more deliciously sweet mandarines and some tuna in batter. Stella is knowledgeable about Katsuura and Japan in general, therefore she was also able to answer our questions about Katsuura and Japan, and also helped us decide how to spend our time in katsuura and thereabouts. It was also nice to see Stella interact with residents as we walked the streets with her during her tour. Thanks Stella! I recommend
Awesome history lesson
