3 hr
From the gangway and back
Best for
A 5-hour call or longer
Everything within sight of the ship — zero transport risk
Room to spare
None
Fits a 5-hour stop with nothing to add (off the ship 30 minutes after arrival, back at the gangway an hour before all-aboard). A longer call gives you the extra time; on this one, do not add a stop.
What it costs
¥0
On foot. Museum entry ¥620 — the whole morning costs less than a ship-tour coffee stop.

Done without a single vehicle
The margin is not optional. This route ends an hour before all-aboard on purpose. If you are running late, drop the last stop, not the hour.
