Private Kamakura & Enoshima Day Trip – Temples, Coastline & Scenic Views

Escape Tokyo’s bustle on a private full-day tour to the historic seaside towns of Kamakura and Enoshima, where culture, spirituality, and coastal charm come together. Travel in comfort with a private air-conditioned vehicle and English-speaking guide, and explore at your own pace.
Begin your journey at Kotoku-in Temple, home to the majestic 13-meter Great Buddha of Kamakura — an iconic symbol of Japan that has stood for centuries against the forces of nature. Continue to Hase-dera Temple, a hillside sanctuary overlooking the sea, famous for its eleven-headed statue of Kannon, the Goddess of Mercy, and serene gardens that bloom beautifully throughout the year.
Next, visit Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, Kamakura’s most important Shinto shrine, established by the city’s first shogun. Stroll along its grand pathways lined with torii gates and lotus ponds before heading to Komachi Street, a lively shopping area filled with local food stalls, boutiques, and traditional sweets — perfect for a relaxed lunch.
In the afternoon, head to Enoshima Island, connected to the mainland by a bridge. Explore its shrines, gardens, and scenic viewpoints, or take the escalator (Enoshima Escar) to the top to visit the Samuel Cocking Garden and Enoshima Sea Candle lighthouse, offering panoramic views of the coastline and Mount Fuji on clear days.
Round off your day at the Inamuragasaki Coastline, a peaceful seaside viewpoint ideal for watching the sunset over the ocean before returning comfortably to Tokyo.
This private Kamakura and Enoshima day tour offers a perfect blend of history, spirituality, and scenic beauty, giving you a refreshing escape from the city while exploring some of Japan’s most picturesque coastal destinations.
