Itinerary

This itinerary can be customized to meet your needs and preferences. Send me a message with your requests!

10:00 AM

Meeting Point

JR ZUSHI station

- Meeting Point: JR Zushi Station, East Exit (In front of the ticket gates) We’ll meet in front of the ticket gates at the East Exit of JR Zushi Station. Zushi Station is a convenient pickup point for our private car tour, as vehicle access directly in front of Kamakura Station can be difficult. Starting in Zushi also gives us the opportunity to enjoy a scenic coastal drive toward Kamakura, taking in beautiful ocean views and the local Shonan atmosphere along the way — the perfect start to your unique Shonan adventure!

10:30 AM

The 1st Pick

Let`s explore The Heart of Kamakura


Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine & Komachi Street

Discover Kamakura’s iconic shrine, rich history, and lively shopping street.


The Great Buddha & Hasedera Temple

Admire Kamakura’s iconic Great Buddha and Hasedera Temple’s magnificent statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy.

12:00 PM

Choose Your Favorite Lunch Spot!

Choose Your Own Japanese Food Experience!


Why settle for tourist-oriented restaurants when you can discover where locals truly love to eat?


You’re in Japan! I want you to experience the authentic flavors of Japanese cuisine, far beyond the usual tourist spots.


From soba, tempura, and sushi to ramen, Japanese curry, okonomiyaki, and cozy local diners — or even exclusive, hidden kaiseki restaurants that most visitors would never find on their own.


Everyone has different tastes, so I’ll recommend restaurants based on your preferences, and you can choose your favorite.


My past guests have loved this personal approach to discovering the real taste of Japan!

01:30 PM

The Afternoon adventure

Ready for Your Afternoon Adventure?


Now that you’re happily full from a delicious lunch, let’s plan the second half of your journey!


We’ll explore the spots you didn’t get to visit in the morning.


Hokokuji: The Hidden Bamboo Temple

Wander through a breathtaking bamboo grove and enjoy traditional matcha in a serene setting.

03:00 PM

Time for Souvenir Shopping!

Of course, you’ll find plenty of lovely souvenirs at popular sightseeing spots. But Shonan has so much more to offer!


Tucked away off the beaten path are wonderful galleries and unique shops, many best reached by car.


I’ll take you to some of my personal favorites — special places I’m proud to recommend!

04:00 PM

JR ZUSHI station

A Perfect Ending to Your Shonan Adventure


Time flies when you’re having fun. I hope you’ve enjoyed every moment of your Shonan adventure!


I’ll drive you back to Zushi Station, where we first met.


Here’s a little local tip: many trains start at Zushi Station, making it much easier to find a seat than boarding at Kamakura. A comfortable ride home is the perfect way to end your day!

About Tour Guide Yuka M.

Surrounded by both the sea and the mountains, beautiful Shonan is a place where you can experience incredible food, culture, history, spirituality, art, and outdoor adventures.


Many of its hidden gems are located away from train stations and are difficult—or even impossible—to reach by public transportation.


As someone who was born and raised in Shonan, I’d love to take you beyond the typical tourist spots and introduce you to the area’s hidden treasures that only locals know.


Traveling by car, we’ll explore authentic local routes that most visitors never get to see. Every tour is designed around the season, the weather, and your interests, making each experience unique.


This isn’t just a sightseeing tour—it’s your chance to discover the real Shonan through the eyes of a local.

Reviews

“A great day with Yuka!”

We had a great day with Yuka. She messaged me about the weather and was fully prepared. She met us at the train station with umbrellas, parkas and towels. She totally custom tailored the tour to our needs and what a wonderful time we had! She also went out of her way to take us to a gallery that we enjoyed immensely. Yuka speaks English very well and is easy to understand. We had booked a few tours in Japan and Yuka’s was definitely THE BEST!! Highly recommend her tour if you are looking for a bespoke tour. Can’t say enough good things about her. Thank you, Yuka!

You all made me feel as if I were spending the day with old friends, and I’m so grateful for your warmth, kindness, and generosity. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful day with me. I feel truly blessed that our paths crossed. Please don’t hesitate to reach out whenever you visit Japan again. I would absolutely love to see you all! And please send my warmest regards to everyone.
