Highlights

Swap Tokyo’s crowds for sea air on this Kamakura & Enoshima Small Group Day Tour from Tokyo. Start in Kamakura with a walk through the bamboo grove at Hokoku-ji and a traditional matcha experience, then visit Tsurugaoka Hachimangū, the city’s most important Shinto shrine. Next, cross Benten Bridge onto Enoshima and wander the Sando, a street full of food stalls and souvenir shops, where you’ll have free time for lunch. Climb up to Enoshima Shrine, ride the Escar escalator to the Sea Candle, and look out over Sagami Bay. On a clear day, you’ll spot Mount Fuji. Back in Kamakura, explore the gardens at Hase-dera and step inside Benten-kutsu Cave before finishing at the iconic Great Buddha of Kotoku-in, one of Japan’s largest bronze statues. Then sit back and relax on the way home to Tokyo. Bamboo forests, old temples, island streets, and ocean views, all in one easy day with seamless transportation from start to finish.

About Tokyo

Neon-lit districts, quiet shrines, superb food and distinct neighbourhoods make up Tokyo, a vast, orderly metropolis linked by punctual trains.

Every district feels like its own city. Shibuya's famous scramble crossing and Shinjuku's towers, bars and Golden Gai alleys pulse with energy, while Harajuku mixes youth fashion with the forested calm of the Meiji Jingu shrine. In Asakusa, the Sensō-ji temple and its market street keep an older Tokyo alive, and Ginza offers polished department stores and galleries.

Top-ranked sights in Tokyo: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
