You’ll spend the day with one of our hosts and discover the true nature of Kobe - and there is plenty of nature to see, the city is wedged between sweeping coastlines and vast mountain ranges after all. But that is not all there is to Kobe and with one of our awesome hosts by your side, who happens to be a local from the area, even the most famous sights like Ikuta Shrine and Kobe Port Tower will take on new and authentic characteristics as they divulge the details on these significant locations. Today you are not a tourist but an explorer (Indiana Jones style) so grab that explorer hat, maybe leave the whip at home, and get ready for adventure! You might want to discover one of Kobe's eclectic areas, exploring the thriving Kobe Motomachi Shopping Street and indulging in authentic cuisine while soaking up the vibe in Nankinmachi, Kobe’s Chinatown. Scale the Kobe Port Tower, where you can see the city's sweeping skyline highlighted by the neon, which casts its colours across Kobe. Maybe you’ll discover hidden gems along the way, like the smaller shrines and historic streets that many visitors miss - but not you! Heads up- there are probably tonnes of weird, whacky and fun places hidden between the hotspots on your hit list that you will want to explore, so just ask your host. You will have a blast together, we promise.
Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.
