What to expect

Embark on a journey from the bustling city of Osaka to the serene Iga, where historic Gun'ya Boats, integral to local fishing traditions for centuries, await. Explore their distinctive structure; the boat cabin is located on the first floor, while the second floor serves as a traditional home. This design is a hallmark of Iga's 'Funeya', or boat houses.

From Iga, proceed to Amanohashidate, a natural landmark where the sky meets the sea in a spectacular display. Here, you have the choice between visiting the tranquil Chien-ji Temple and Manjushage Hall for a cultural experience, or taking a leisurely stroll along scenic paths, enjoying a playful moment by the sea.

As evening approaches, arrive at Kyoto's Miyama, home to a village of thatched-roof farmhouses. Immersing yourself in this rural lifestyle cherished by Japan will provide an authentic experience. As the sun sets, return to Osaka, concluding a day filled with the charm of Japan's countryside.
