About This Experience

【Tour Overview】 Escape the crowds on this small-group (max 3) private taxi tour of Kagoshima. With a local guide, explore the lush Shimazu Tamazato Garden, two historic shrines, and the stunning views from Shiroyama Observatory. Learn the essence of Japanese spiritual culture—torii etiquette, temizu purification, and worship customs. Cruise passengers and individual travelers welcome. 【Notes】 Included: None Not included: Taxi fare (paid directly to driver; approx. ¥15,000/taxi, up to 3 guests), food & drinks, insurance (arrange your own). Gratuities: If you enjoy the tour, a tip is the greatest encouragement! Your generosity helps us keep offering quality local experiences (greatly appreciated). After the tour: We'll take you back to Kagoshima-Chuo Station by taxi. Itinerary changes: When Tamazato Garden is closed (e.g. New Year), we'll visit an alternative spot. If time allows, we may stop at a local café.
