Sake breweries are scattered in the Nada area, where the area is known as one of the best sake breweries in Japan. Several breweries are open to the public, and they are popular with tourists because they offer tours of the production process and free tastings. Sake brewing in Nada has been active since the Edo period and now accounts for about 30% of Japan's total sake production. The location, climatic environment, quality of rice, and water are just perfect to brew sake in Nada. Those are essential for sake brewing, and the craftsmanship has been handed down from generation to generation with its techniques. This tour will not only introduce a sake brewery and tasting but will also introduce you to the food culture using sake, strolling through local shopping streets. By learning about the efforts of the people involved in sake brewing, as well as feeling the daily lives in the area, you will be able to understand the appeal of sake.

Enjoy and discover the exquisite flavors of Kobe Beef in Kobe town! Cruise passengers will be met if you arrive at Kobe Port terminal（Shinkocho). First, I'll show you Kitano area. In the small town of Kitano, Kobe (it takes about 20min from Osaka and 50min from Kyoto by JR train), there are a lot of different religious buildings—including a mosque, a synagogue, churches, and Indian and Buddhist temples—where the international residents go to pray in their daily lives. For almost 150 years, these residents have lived happily and peacefully together with different nationalities and religions, like one ethnic people. Afterwards, I'll take you to the authentic Kobe beef restaurant, where you'll enjoy a tender Kobe steak and a live performance by the chef!
