Ine Funaya, Japan's Venice
And to Amanohashidate!

Ine Funaya, nicknamed the Venice of Japan! This uniquely designed house features a first-floor docking area, while the second floor serves as living quarters. The village is even more charming here, allowing you to explore by strolling, cycling, or boating.

Enjoy a fun-filled day on this tour that takes you to Ine Village and Kayabuki no Sato, both of which have been selected as one of Japan's 18 most beautiful villages!

A time to experience true romance, not just a typical tourist destination.

Ine Funaya
Ine, a seaside town in northern Kyoto, boasts a landscape of "funaya" (boat houses) that appear to float on the sea. The first floor of each house serves as a garage for boats, while the second floor serves as a living space, offering a glimpse into a unique lifestyle coexisting with the sea. The wooden buildings lining the tranquil seaside landscape make for a wonderful photo opportunity. A cruise boat ride to view the Ine Funaya Village from the water is also highly recommended.

Amanohashidate View Land
This is a prime vantage point where you can capture Amanohashidate, one of Japan's three most scenic views, at a glance. The long stretch of sandy beach resembles a bridge spanning the sky, earning it the name "Tenbashidate." At the observatory, you can experience a unique viewing technique called "Lifting the Bridge" (股のぞき), where you can view the landscape upside down, creating a spectacular sight that resembles a dragon soaring into the sky. The cable car or chairlift ride up to the summit is also a delightful experience.

Miyama Kayabuki no Sato
Nestled deep in the mountains of Kyoto, this traditional thatched-roof village perfectly preserves the essence of Japan's old countryside. The row of around 30 Kayabuki (thatched-roof) houses evokes a sense of time travel to ancient Japan. While each season offers a different charm, the snow-covered landscape in winter is particularly beautiful. There are also guesthouses, small cafes, and workshops housed in traditional houses, making for a leisurely stroll.
