Relax and enjoy a comfortable motor coach ride into Osaka to tour two of the city's most exciting landmarks. First, you'll visit Osaka Castle, the city's magnificent 16th-century gold and white landmark. The castle, built in 1583, has undergone rebuilds and several renovations and the tower is now entirely modern inside, and includes elevators and a museum, but retains its external citadels, gates, stone walls and moats. As you wander through each of the castle's seven floors, you'll be introduced to Japan's ancient and modern history and culture. On the eighth floor, enjoy the observation deck that offers a panoramic view of the city. Next, you'll have time on your own to stroll through the Dotonbori district, a must-see for visitors to Osaka. Here you can experience the city's well-known reputation as a foodie's paradise. The streets are crowded with restaurants, bars, and street-side food stalls that serve everything from kebabs and crabs to fugu and shabu shabu. In between bites, you can shop for souvenirs, then re-board your motor coach for the trip back to your ship.
