Nagasaki
A vibrant port city full of color and international flair
Fabulous Nagasaki, the site of the dropping of an Atomic Bomb in WWII is now one of the most vibrant and accessible cities in Japan.
Surrounded by mountains, this city has a protected inlet for ships and yachts to dock in. We will be given a private tour of the somber museum, followed by a walk through the Peace Park and Remembrance Hall.
You will have the opportunity to wander the streets of Nagasaki in the afternoon with a stop at the Japan famous Spectacles Bridge.
In the evening visit the Glover Gardens, home of Madam Butterfly and enjoy a private concert by local opera singers in this beautiful setting.
We can also visit to the ruined Gunkanjima “Battleship Island”, made famous by the James Bond Movie “Skyfall”.
