Yokohama is a city of contrasts. From scenic harbour views, seaside parks and tranquil temples to neon-lit amusement parks, lively markets and buzzing areas- you could spend a lifetime taking it all in. But we do not have a lifetime- we have half a day and while it may be impossible to see it all in just a few short hours, with one of our hosts by your side you certainly can try. We love ambition! So get ready for an adventure as you explore the sights that you have always wanted to see. That could include the historic Sankeien Garden with its century old buildings, the lush gardens of the Meigetsu-in temple or the scenic harbour views along Osanbashi Pier. Or you could take things up a notch. Perhaps you would prefer to seek your thrills out at the neon-lit amusement park that is Yokohama Cosmoworld, wander the winding alleyways of Chinatown or eat the best ramen in town at the Shin-Yokohama Raumen Museum which, despite its misleading name, is not a museum so much as a food court dedicated… you got it… Japanese ramen noodle soup. This trip is all about you so let us know your vibe and we will make sure you discover the parts of Yokohama that match that.
