The smell of fresh salt air and spectacular coastal views are some things to look forward to on your Kobe holiday. If you're eager to save on your trip to Kobe, here's how to do it — opt for one of our Kobe holiday packages. Lock in one near Okura Kaigan, just 18 kilometres from the city centre and a popular place to base yourself. Alternatively, pick a package that puts you closer to Omae Beach Park, another stunning stretch of coastline. Either way, you'll be left with extra money in your holiday budget to spend.
