About the Activity

This autumn half-day tour, led by local students, lets you enjoy Matsushima—one of Japan’s top scenic spots—by land, sea, and air. Ride a boat across the calm bay, stroll temple paths glowing with red and gold leaves, and drive up to a hilltop park for a wide view of the islands dressed in autumn colors. Your student guides also take you to hidden coves and quiet shrines that most visitors miss, while photo stops lend wine glasses and other fun props for standout pictures. If only a few guests join, you can enjoy a private atmosphere.
