Nagoya Tour

Central Japan's underrated big city — castles, world-class museums, and winter illuminations.

FULL DAY · CHŪBU

Midway between Tokyo and Osaka, Nagoya rewards the curious: a landmark castle, Japan's best transport and industry museums, lively shopping arcades, and — in winter — one of the country's great illumination gardens.

What to expect

How the day feels.

A flexible city day that leans however you like — history and castles, science and trains for the kids, or shopping and food.

In winter, we time the day to finish at the Nabana no Sato light displays.

Nagashima outlets, Noritake Garden, and Ghibli Park are all easy add-ons.

Good to know

Questions, answered plainly.

What does the price cover?

The price is per private vehicle for a full touring day — about 10 hours from hotel pick-up — covering your driver, fuel, and door-to-door transport. If a day runs longer than that, an overtime fee applies, and we will always tell you before it does. Entrance tickets, meals, and optional experiences are additional and easy to arrange.

Is it suitable for seniors and young children?

Yes. Because the car stays with you all day, there are no long walks between train lines — you rest between stops, and we keep the pace gentle.
