About This Tour

Discover Matsushima at your own pace with our private self-guided tour, which includes a round trip from Tokyo Station to Matsushima and a ticket for the Matsushima sightseeing boat. If you travel by train, just 40 minutes from Sendai, you can reach Matsushima, known for its scenic beauty as one of the "Three Most Scenic Spots of Japan." Here are some recommended ways to make the most of your time: Be sure to visit Zuiganji Temple and Godaido Temple. Matsushima boasts a cultural heritage as impressive as its natural scenery. Afterward, enjoy a Bamboo Kamaboko (fish cake) hand-baking experience that we offer! The crispy, fluffy freshly baked sasa kamaboko tastes a little different from store-bought varieties. The last attraction is the Matsushima sightseeing boat, which takes you around Matsushima Bay, passing by islands that have been carved into delicate and intriguing shapes by the wind and water. Customize your itinerary to match your specific needs and interests!
