Overview
Enjoy a comfortable and flexible private shore excursion from Fushiki Toyama Port, traveling at your own pace in a private vehicle rather than following a large group itinerary.
Your tour begins at Amaharashi Coast, one of Toyama’s most beautiful coastal landscapes. On a clear day, take in breathtaking views across Toyama Bay toward the dramatic 3,000-meter-high Tateyama Mountain Range.
Continue to Zuiryu-ji Temple, a magnificent Zen Buddhist temple built in honor of Maeda Toshinaga. Admire its elegant wooden architecture and remarkably symmetrical design, including three buildings designated as National Treasures of Japan.
Next, visit the Takaoka Great Buddha, an impressive bronze statue that showcases Takaoka’s centuries-old tradition of metal casting and craftsmanship.
Afterward, head to Shinminato Kittokito Market, where you can enjoy lunch and sample fresh seafood and seasonal specialties from Toyama Bay. Following lunch, take a relaxing stroll along the Uchikawa Canal, a charming and nostalgic waterfront area lined with fishing boats, traditional houses, and distinctive bridges. The canal remains an important part of the fishing town’s everyday life and reflects the area's rich maritime heritage.
