There’s More to KOBE Than Beef! Kobe Day Trip + Food Tour

There’s More to KOBE Than Beef! Kobe Day Trip + Food Tour

Everyone’s heard of Kobe beef, but did you know Kobe is an incredible city just a thirty minute train ride from Osaka? And that’s just what we did!

We spent a full day in Kobe, and were impressed by what we found. Of course we had to try a lot of Kobe beef, but we also had our fill of other treats! And in case you didn’t know, Kobe is a type of Wagyu beef (but from specific prefectures). We really enjoyed the ramen spot and the Kobe beef set we got from there.

We also checked out the port where you can see the Kobe tower and a “Be Kobe” sign, walked and ate our way through Kobe’s Chinatown, and checked out Kitano-cho area. Kitano-cho is an area situated at the foot of the mountains where you can see lots of European influence from foreign merchants and diplomats that called it home.

Last but certainly not least, we visited the Kobe Nunobiki Ropeway and Herb Gardens. It was 2,000 yen round trip per person to use the ropeway, but that also included the herb garden admission. Little did we know that this spot would be one of our favorite of our whole trip. The gardens were thoughtfully laid out and had so many cool features, photo ops, and food options! It was also a unique experience to ride the ropeway and get to see a viewpoint of Kobe’s skyline.

If you’re looking for an easy day trip out of Osaka, we highly recommend Kobe!
