Embark on a comprehensive journey through Okunoin, Japan's largest and most sacred cemetery, on this exclusive private walking tour. Unlike standard tours that only cover a fraction of the site, we traverse the entire 3km path from the traditional Ichinohashi entrance to the Nakanohashi exit. Led by a 15-year resident professional and the founder of the Okunoin Night Tour, you will discover the deep spiritual layers of this 1,200-year-old forest at your group's own pace.
