Overview

Begin your private shore excursion with pickup from Miyako Port. Travel comfortably in your own private vehicle. Unlike a large group tour, there is no need to keep pace with other travelers, allowing you to enjoy each destination at your own pace. Choose from 4-hour or 6-hour options. Both tours visit Jodogahama Beach, known for its beautiful white rock formations and clear blue water, and Ryusendo Cave, one of Japan’s most impressive limestone caves. The 6-hour option also explores more of the Sanriku Coast, including Sanno-iwa Rocks, Roadside Station Taro, and the dramatic coastal scenery of Kitayamazaki. Please check the itinerary for each option before booking. The driver speaks Japanese, with communication assisted by a translation app. Before your tour, you will receive an English digital guidebook about your selected itinerary and sightseeing locations. Pre-tour customer support is available in English. Return to Miyako Port in time for your ship’s departure.
