Following last year's overwhelming response, with applications exceeding three times the capacity, we are holding a tour to experience life and the charm of Yokosuka! 'I want to raise children in a town by the sea,' 'What is it really like to live there?' To answer such questions, this is a special one-day bus tour for families. We welcome those who have started considering life in Yokosuka, as well as those who just want to take a look. Just a short distance from the city center, surrounded by nature, and conveniently livable – why not feel the 'just right' Yokosuka life for you?
Overview Date & Time: May 16, Reiwa 8 (2026) (Saturday) 9:30 AM – 5:30 PM (scheduled) ※ In case of rain, some parts of the itinerary will be changed (cancelled in case of severe weather).
