Kochi 10-Hour Private Chartered Tour | Custom Itinerary

This product is a 10-hour private charter within Kochi Prefecture. There is no fixed route—you freely choose sights and arrange the day around history and culture, nature, food, photography, family travel, or coastal touring.

The vehicle serves only you and your companions, with no ride-sharing. You can depart from central Kochi, Kochi Ryoma Airport, the Kochi Shinko cruise terminal, or another confirmed location, and finish at your hotel, station, airport, port, or other specified location.

Service notes

The charter lasts 10 hours, counted continuously from the agreed pickup time.

After booking, please provide us with:

• Travel date and preferred departure time
• Pickup and drop-off locations
• Sights you wish to visit
• Number of travelers
• Number and size of bags
• Children, seniors, or other special travel needs
• A reachable mobile number or messaging contact

Staff will help plan a sensible route based on distances between sights, opening hours, road conditions, and your sightseeing preferences.

On the day, the itinerary can flexibly adjust within reason. The driver also helps keep track of time, leaving ample time for sightseeing and for returning to your designated location.

Suggested areas

Kochi stretches long east–west, with flagship sights in different directions:

• Kochi city and Katsurahama
• The Niyodogawa and the mid-western mountains
• Cape Muroto and the eastern coast
• The Shimantogawa, Cape Ashizuri, and the west

For the best experience, pick one main direction for your 10-hour day.

Kochi city, Katsurahama, and some Niyodogawa sights can be combined depending on stop lengths, but fitting Cape Muroto, the Shimantogawa, and Cape Ashizuri—far apart from each other—into one day is not recommended.

For cross-region or long-distance routes, please share your full plan before booking so staff can confirm feasibility.
