Overview

Experience the sophisticated harmony of modern design and traditional art on this 2-hour guided walking tour. We begin at Omotesando Hills, an architectural masterpiece by Tadao Ando, where luxury fashion meets innovative urban design.

Next, we dive into the creative energy of Cat Street. This trendy pedestrian walkway, hidden from the main thoroughfares, is the best place to discover local Japanese style, street art, and the unique “Ura-Harajuku” culture.

Finally, we transition from modern fashion to historic masterpieces at the Ota Memorial Museum of Art. Dedicated to the world of Ukiyo-e (woodblock prints), this museum provides a serene and profound cultural conclusion to your journey, showing you the artistic roots that continue to inspire Japan today.

You can do the tour with local guide and learn about traditional Japanese culture.

Activity itinerary

Kinsakubaru Old-growth Forest

Begin your adventure at Kinsakubaru, a mystical subtropical forest that feels like a scene from a film. Walk among giant Hikagehego ferns and ancient trees while listening to the songs of rare birds. It is the best place to feel the island's unique ecosystem and primeval power.

Cape Ayamaru Kanko Park

Visit Ayamaru Cape, one of the top scenic spots on the island. From the observatory, you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of the sparkling coral reefs and the Pacific Ocean. The park also features a refreshing café and unique rock formations shaped by the waves.

Yadorihama Beach

Relax at Yadoribama Beach, located at the southernmost tip of the main island. This tranquil beach is famous for its clear emerald waters and views of Kakeroma Island across the strait. It is a peaceful sanctuary perfect for a quiet stroll or dipping your feet in the gentle waves.
