This accessible Nagasaki tour is designed for all guests, including those using a wheelchair. From the cutting-edge Gunkanjima Museum to the scenic charm of Glover Garden, this experience offers a deep dive into Nagasaki's past and present, along with a taste of its iconic local cuisine.
Visit the Gunkanjima Museum, where advanced digital technology brings the island's history to life. Through projection mapping exhibits, visitors experience the vibrant atmosphere of Gunkanjima at its peak, when it had the world's highest population density. The museum highlights the island's role in Japan's Industrial Revolution and its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Lunch features Nagasaki champon, a regional specialty with Chinese influences. This hearty noodle dish is made with a rich white soup from pork or chicken bones, thick noodles, and an assortment of vegetables, meat, and seafood.
The journey continues to Glover Garden, home to beautifully preserved Western-style residences from the late 19th century. These homes belonged to foreign merchants who played a key role in Japan's modernization. The garden's cobblestone paths and scenic views of Nagasaki Port provide a glimpse into the city's past, with three of its buildings designated Important Cultural Properties by the Japanese government.
Shop and stroll at Glover Hill, where small stores offer local crafts, souvenirs, and taste treats.
