Enjoy a luxury time in a cruising ship "Concert", superb scenery with Kobe city night view from the sea and authentic course meal!

In a popular sightseeing spot "Kobe Harborland" in Kobe city, Hyogo, there are famous shopping mall "Umie","Kobe port tower" and "Mosaic Big Ferris Wheel".

Among some sightseeing places in the Harborland we would like to recommend a cruise ship "Concert", which starts from Kobe port to Akashi Kaikyo Ohashi bridge and comes back to Kobe port.

There are four plans of Concert cruise, such as a day time plan which you can see Kobe city landscape from the ship, or a night plan which you can admire beauty of Kobe night view. But the attraction is not only the scenery, but also authentic course meals which the chef is proud of, such as "Chinese course" and "Teppanyaki (Iron plate grill) course". In addition, "music concert" takes place in the ship or you can relax in the lounge, those are all experiences only in Concert.

It can be recommended as one of the sightseeing plans in Kobe, or you can celebrate a birthday or anniversary on the ship.

We would like to introduce attractions of "Concert" in which you can experience fantastic cruise.

"Concert" is a cruise ship which departs from Kobe port for Akashi Kaikyo Big Bridge for round trip. There are several cruise plans such as lunch cruise plan in day time, tea cruise plan in afternoon, night cruise plan for dinner and night view. We would recommend the night cruise among them.
It's the best because you can see Kobe port night view from sea shore and admire the beauty of Akashi Kaikyo Big Bridge with rainbow colors. In addition, you can spend gorgeous time with a carefully prepared meal by chef and live music in the ship.
