We'll start our journey by strolling along the tranquil paths of Kamakura, heading to a shrine renowned for its numerous torii gates and fox statues. Our local guide will delve into cultural insights, explaining the connection between shrines and foxes, Shinto philosophy, and the art of shrine worship.
Next, we'll explore a temple nestled within a cave, where you'll discover a fascinating tradition of cleansing money at the temple.
Following our exploration of local shrines and temples, we'll embark on a 30 to 40-minute hiking adventure through the enchanting forest, immersing ourselves in the unique terrain and the beauty of nature. This journey will lead us to the awe-inspiring Great Buddha of Kamakura, an iconic monument with an 800-year history.
To conclude our adventure, we'll guide you to a restaurant operated by the temple and try Kamakura's local dishes like Udon, vegetable curry.

5.00Jim was an exceptional guide for our private tour of Kamakura. His English was excellent—clear and easy to understand—and his explanations were always precise and incredibly informative. He has a deep knowledge of Kamakura's history and culture, which truly brought the area to life. Jim really made our trip memorable and genuinely interesting. Highly recommend! Arigatō gozaimasu!
