Rokko, and the historic hot spring town of Arima Onsen. Enjoy a flexible and relaxed itinerary with plenty of time to explore each destination at your own pace. If weather conditions make Mt. Rokko unsuitable, the itinerary can be adjusted to a Kobe Harbor and Meriken Park city walk, ensuring you can still enjoy Kobe even in rainy, snowy, or foggy weather.

What to expect

  1. Hakutsuru Sake Brewery Museum
    1h
    Discover the traditional culture of Japanese sake at the Hakutsuru Sake Brewery Museum. Explore a historic sake brewery and learn how sake was traditionally made, from rice preparation and koji cultivation to fermentation. Enjoy the atmosphere of an authentic Japanese brewery and have the opportunity to sample sake and browse local products at the museum shop.
  2. Arima Onsen
    3h · Admission ticket not included
    Enjoy 3 hours in the historic town of Arima Onsen, one of Japan’s oldest and most famous hot spring destinations. Guests can choose to visit Kin no Yu, a traditional public hot spring bath, and relax in its famous golden-colored mineral-rich waters. After the bath, take time to stroll through the charming streets of Arima, explore local shops, try traditional snacks, or enjoy the free foot bath near Kin no Yu.

    Please note: Admission to Kin no Yu is not included and must be paid directly by the guest. Guests with tattoos may not be permitted to enter the public bath, depending on the facility's current rules. If you are unable to use the public bath, you can still enjoy the historic hot spring town, local shops, and the free foot bath.
  3. Rokko-Shidare Observatory
    1h 20m · Admission ticket not included
    Visit Rokko-Shidare Observatory, a unique architectural landmark located at an elevation of approximately 888 meters on Mt. Rokko. Designed to resemble a large tree standing on the mountaintop, the observatory offers beautiful panoramic views of Kobe, Osaka and the surrounding mountains. Take a relaxing walk around the observatory, enjoy the fresh mountain air, and admire the spectacular scenery from one of the most scenic viewpoints on Mt. Rokko.

    Admission to Rokko-Shidare Observatory is not included and must be paid directly by the guest. Opening hours and admission fees may vary depending on the season, weather conditions and operating schedule.
  4. Kobe Port Tower
    1h 20m
    Weather Backup Option: Kobe Harbor & Meriken Park City Walk

    If weather conditions such as heavy rain, snow, or dense fog make it unsuitable or unsafe to visit Mt. Rokko, the itinerary will be changed to a relaxing city walk around Kobe’s waterfront. Explore the scenic Meriken Park and Kobe Harborland, enjoy views of Kobe Port, take photos at the famous BE KOBE monument, and stroll along the waterfront. Guests can also enjoy free time for shopping, cafés, local snacks, and exploring the harbor area.

    This is a weather-dependent alternative and will only be used when conditions on Mt. Rokko are unsuitable for sightseeing. Any optional attractions, activities, food, or shopping expenses are not included and must be paid directly by the guest.
