Highlights
  • Ise Shrine Geku - Your guide will lead you through the expansive grounds and towering cypress groves of Ise-Jingu, providing insights into Shintoism, the history of the shrine, and the proper actions to take as we make our way to the Inner Shrine.
  • Okage Yokocho - Your guide will provide you with a tour of Okage Yokocho before stopping for lunch and free time to purchase souvenirs. The street is home to many well-known restaurants serving up local dishes, craft beer, and Instagramable desserts. We highly recommend the Ise Udon or fried oysters. Feel free to ask your guide for lunch recommendations or let your nose lead the way!
  • Meotoiwa Rocks - Our final stop of the tour is Meoto Iwa and Futami-Okitama Shrine. These wedded rocks are another important Shinto location and an excellent spot for photos. If you’re lucky, we may even catch the silhouette of Mt.Fuji in the distance. Your guide will give you a brief tour of Meoto Iwa and help you translate your fortune. Don’t worry, we’ll have plenty of time for taking pictures.
