Mr Kita was very punctual. He drove us in a comfortable van to Kamakura and Enoshima. He was polite, and made several helpful suggestions. His knowledge of Chinese was impressive, and was very useful in this outing.





Step away from Tokyo’s rush and discover the serene charm of Kamakura and Enoshima on a private full-day tour. Your English-speaking driver will pick you up from your hotel and guide you through sacred shrines, ancient temples, and scenic coastal views. Begin at Tsurugaoka Hachimangū Shrine, Kamakura’s grand Shinto landmark surrounded by ponds and torii gates reflecting its samurai heritage. Then, visit Kōtoku-in, home to the Great Buddha—an awe-inspiring 13-meter bronze statue that has stood in quiet grace for centuries. Continue to Hasedera Temple, known for its statue of Kannon, the Goddess of Mercy, and panoramic views of Kamakura’s coastline. Finally, cross to Enoshima Island, where shrines, sea caves, ocean vistas, and local street food create a perfect coastal retreat. After a day of spiritual and seaside beauty, relax as your driver takes you back to Tokyo in comfort.
