Overview

Koyasan is a deeply spiritual place that offers a unique opportunity to experience Japanese Buddhist culture and history. Its tranquil environment, rich heritage, and the chance to engage in religious practices make it a profound destination for both pilgrims and tourists seeking peace and enlightenment. Whether you're interested in exploring historic temples, participating in monastic life, or simply enjoying the serene natural beauty, Koyasan provides a deeply enriching experience. Koyasan has a longer history than Kyoto and I believe you will feel the spiritually beaty of Jpan here. ( Actually, I got goosebumps） This tour is led by a National Licensed Guide Interpreter. This itinerary is just a sample. We'd be more than happy to arrange the tour based on your requests. Please let us know your interests! This tour is great for any types of travelers , such as adventure seekers, families with children, etc.
