Overview

This is the ideal tour for travellers wanting to discover the spiritual heart of Japan in Ise, explored efficiently in a private vehicle with a government-licensed, experienced multilingual guide!

Ise is home to Ise Jingu, Japan's most sacred Shinto shrine complex. Begin at the serene Outer Shrine (Geku), dedicated to the deity of food and harvest, then visit the magnificent Inner Shrine (Naiku), enshrining the sun goddess Amaterasu amid ancient cedar forests along the clear Isuzu River. Stroll the nostalgic Oharaimachi street and lively Okage Yokocho, lined with Edo-period shops where you can sample Ise udon, Akafuku mochi and other local treats.

Along the coast at Futami, marvel at Meoto Iwa, the Wedded Rocks joined by a sacred rope, and pray for good fortune at Sarutahiko Shrine. With your own private guide and vehicle, you can tailor the day to your interests and uncover the timeless traditions, cuisine and natural beauty that make Ise unforgettable.
