What To Expect

1

Karato Market

“Welcome! Welcome! Cheap! Cheap!” At the western edge of Yamaguchi, famous for its blowfish and energetic spirit is Karato Market. Not only will you hear auctioneers hawking fish, but there are also vegetable and flower corners, making this the local “kitchen”, where it is crowded every day. The biggest difference from Tsukiji Market in Tokyo is that anyone can purchase products here. After the stock for business has been traded at 7 am, vendors would take the time to explain to tourists the different kinds of fish, how to eat them and recommendations of the day.

Mojiko Retro

A port with Western-influenced architecture from a past age of prosperity and modernization Moji Port is home to numerous historic buildings that have survived and been preserved in pristine condition since the late 19th century.

  • A wonderful Japanese cultural experience.

    Suzy was caring and gracious. She asked us ahead of time what our interests were, provided us with a proposed itinerary for our review, and then modified it to meet our desire for more walking upon our arrival. Our tour wound up giving us our most authentic traditional Japanese experience of our trip, which included a classic Japanese lunch in a small Cafe of a classic Japanese home and matcha tea in a classic Japanese garden. Truly met our desire to experience Japanese culture.

    If you want to experience traditional Japanese culture and ambience, take this tour! Visited cultural gems, experienced a traditional Japanese lunch, visited the interior of a grand mansion and gardens, and then sat in the serenity of that garden with marcha. Our guide Suzy was well versed and gracious. It was a relaxing way to experience Japanese culture.

    We were extremely satisfied with Rie Mihara as our guide. She came up with an itinerary that accommodated our interests but also showcased her connections to the area and its people. She also made sure we were able to enjoy the sights not too rushed, She helped us hire a van and made reservation for lunch at a seaport restaurant which was an excellent choice.

  • Great way to see the Moji area

    Our guide Rei took us all over Moji. It was raining so we amended our itinerary. Took a ferry and cabs. Our most favorite thing was having tea by ourselves overlooking the garden and enjoying the rain. Truly a special time. We viewed shrines and loved our curry lunch. Rei was lovely. She had lived in Lexington Kentucky and her English was superb. Would highly recommend her.
