Kamakura 2026 Calendar of Events

We loved the tour and all the places we visited. We had a rainy day and could not do some of the nature sites, but it was still fantastic. Guide was friendly and knowledgeable.

Hitomi was a wonderful guide for us on the early morning Kamakura tour, as she expertly guided us through all of the transportation (which included buses and trains), is incredibly knowledgeable about the temples and shrines we visited, and has a fun and lively personality that we all enjoyed. She also provided lunch recommendations for us after the tour in Kamakura, as well as other restaurant recommendations for the rest of our stay in Tokyo. I also really enjoyed the last two stops on the tour as those are a little different than the first two and I had not previously been to those sites when I had visited Japan the first time (30-plus years ago)!

Our guide Tia was fun, knowledgeable and flexible. This was one of my favorite tours in Japan. It was great to walk to so many beautiful sites. She did a great job communicating with us on questions we had before the tour.

Very nice city Kamakura is this nice beach and tourist guide too well we super liked the tour. I highly recommend it

I (F) was traveling solo to Kamukura and decided to avail of the Ebisuya Rickshaw services. I was scheduled for a 10:30 rickshaw, unfortunately due to train delays that day, I asked to reschedule to 11:00am which they gladly granted. I had Satoshi Arai as my rickshaw driver and he was very accommodating, friendly, and informative. As a female solo travel, he not only made me feel safe, he also took plenty of great photos and videos for my family and friends back home. I extended my 1 hour ride to 1.5 hours instead (I would have extended to 2 hours, but I had a schedule afterwards). I would highly recommend their services especially, my rickshaw driver, Satoshi. Thank you!

Our tour guide, Hitomi, was very friendly and easy to connect with. I enjoyed the small group tour and was able to see beautiful temples and shrines, whilst listening to the history of each one through our knowledgeable guide. Excellent experience!

Great trip . Amazing experience with the best guide . Hana is so very knowledgeable and nice ! Totally recommend this tour !

My partner and I had a fantastic tour through Kamakura with Terry. He was knowledgeable and very sociable. The tour was comprehensive but affordable with a relaxed atmosphere. It was simply very fun and informative. I think this tour is best for small groups of 2-5

Terry was an excellent communicator before the tour and even better during the tour. He was very patient with our slowness. More importantly, truly cares about and is familiar with the area. We had a lovely day exploring with him.

We had such a lovely rickshaw ride around kamakura and the bamboo forest temple. Our driver Toya was so knowledgeable and spoke excellent English, he was such a charmer and made our trip very memorable. I would highly recommend a trip with Kamakura rickshaw if you are looking for a fun activity in a beautiful destination 😊

Joe and Yoshi are terrific tour guides. And the added bonus was that Joe is also an amazing photographer and took pictures that we will always treasure!

The rain didn’t stop us from having an amazing time exploring Kamakura. Our guide Hitomi was very knowledgeable and gave us options along the way to tailor our experience to us. We learned a lot and got to participate in some of the experiences as well. Highly recommend this tour!

a very good way to know historical and very quiet places. We had a guide named Hana, who provided excellent service and attention.

Our trip to Kamakura was truly peaceful and memorable ,it is definitely a place one must visit when in Japan. The beautiful temples, serene atmosphere, and charm of the town made the experience very special.A big part of what made this trip so enjoyable was our guide, Hana. She was incredibly friendly, approachable, and without a doubt the best guide we met during our Japan tour. It was so easy to connect and gel with her, which made the experience even more comfortable and enjoyable.Hana was very knowledgeable about the history and places we visited, and she explained everything with great enthusiasm and patience. The entire trip felt smooth, well-organized, and effortless because of her guidance. We are truly grateful for such a wonderful experience and would highly recommend both Kamakura and Hana to anyone planning a visit!

Teiko was a wonderful guide - perfect for us! She was very engaging and made sure we enjoyed our time on the tour. She was very responsive to information requests prior to the tour, which made our travel to the meeting point stress free. The tour itself is great - beautiful stops that were meaningful and significant. We highly recommend this tour and maybe you’ll be lucky enough to have Teiko as your guide!
