Tours to Kansai

Kansai contains countless delights. At Himeji you can explore the nation’s most celebrated castle. For a spiritual getaway there is Mount Koya, one of Japan’s most revered mountains that has served as a Buddhist retreat for centuries. Visitors stay in one of 50 temples offering simple accommodation, vegetarian meals and the chance to join the monks in their morning rituals. Kansai is not, however, all about the past, and is also home to the robust, earthy city of Osaka, famous for its tasty street food, as well as the cosmopolitan port of Kobe.
