You can enjoy a small hiking in a north mountain area, where you will feel ancient atmosphere by visiting a mystic cave shrine called Zeniarai-Benten and Sasuke-Inari shrine. You can also enjoy other faomous spots, Tsurugaoka-Hachiman-gu shrine and Great Buddha.
At your hotel or Kamakura station in Kanagawa pref.
Famous for its 11-headed Kannon statue. Its beautiful garden is also famous.
11 meters in height and weighing over 100 ton huge statue is the most symbolic spot in Kamakura.
Near here, we can enjoy many types of Japanese lunch, such as Soba noodle, Ramen noodle or authentic traditional Japanese dishes
One of the 7 ancient passes in Kamakura. It's a little wild and steep but you can feel ancient atmosphere here.
A little far from the central Kamakura, you can feel the nature of Kamakura by walking.
Main shrine built by Minamoto Yoritomo in 1180, who was the founder of Kamakura Samurai government.
Shopping street. You can eat many kinds of Japanese food and buy good souvenirs.
At your hotel or Kamakura station in Kanagawa pref.
Kamakura is surrounded by small mountains, which protected this first Samurai government against enemies. Zeniarai-Benten shrine is in a cave in this mountain area. Among Japanese, it is famous for its washing money ritual. But it is located in some 30 minutes walk from Kamakura station, so it is difficult to reach without help, especially for foreigners. I will guide you to this sacred and nature-rich area through an ancient mountain pass.
Before this small hiking, I can show you Tsurugaoka-Hachiman-gu shrine and Komachi-dori shopping street. After hiking, you will get to famous Great Buddha and Hase-dera temple.

We enjoyed our tour with Kaneo San thoroughly. He was very helpful and courteous on the messages before our trip and during the tour. He let us know beforehand that there are lots of walking involved and to wear comfy shoes and attire. He would wait for us throughout the trip (we walked slowly ; ) and told us the history and interesting story about the places. Thank you Kaneo San for sharing and guiding us. Thumbs up for your tour!
Thank you for your good review. You and your friends did really good in spite of too hot climate. I hope you enjoyed this walking tour and I have another chance to guide you in Japan.

We had a blast visiting Yokohama with Kaneo. He was able to get reservations for us to make our own cupola of noodles at the Cup Noodles Museum. We also had a last minute change in schedule and number of people and Kaneo was able to make the changes easily. We had so much fun!
I am happy to hear you enjoyed the tour. I also enjoyed the tour too. Your kids are so cute. I wish I had had more time to talk with them.
