Experience a private, transformational journey at the historic port of Nagasaki, Japan, steeped in both tranquility and tumultuous history. Our exclusive tour of Nagasaki offers a poignant experience that uniquely combines stunning natural beauty with rich cultural significance.

As you disembark your ship at the scenic Nagasaki port, our friendly, local guide and driver warmly welcomes you, setting the tone for an unforgettable day. The tour kicks off with a reflective visit to the Peace Memorial Park, a deeply moving testament to the lives lost in the tragic atomic bombing of Nagasaki in 1945. The park’s centerpiece, a towering 10-meter-high Peace Statue, along with other poignant memorials, serves as a global plea for peace, an appeal strengthened by the annual speech given by Nagasaki’s Mayor.

Beyond the park’s tranquil greenery, delve into history at the Atomic Bomb Museum that compellingly chronicles the events leading to the bombing. As the morning transitions into the afternoon, your cultural journey continues as we navigate towards Dejima Museum, nestled on the man-made Dejima Island. Here, you will gain insights into Nagasaki’s global significance and the city’s rich trading history through the museum’s fascinating exhibits.

Concluding the day’s exploration is a visit to the picturesque Glover Garden. Wander through the lush green landscape and take in panoramic city views. Don’t miss the charming Glover Mansion, the oldest Western-style building in Japan, and its gallery showcasing striking Meiji-Era architecture.

Our journey through time and history concludes as we comfortably transport you back to the cruise port.
