Japan’s one and only museum showcasing everything about pears, the Tottori 20th Century Pear Museum is a pear paradise.

See, and taste, the story of the Nijisseiki Pear here.
 
Next, visit the icon of Tottori, the Tottori Sand Dunes. Spanning 16km by 2km along the coast of the Sea of Japan, the naturally formed sand dunes reach up to 50m in height. Trek up to the Umanose “Horse’s Back” for outstanding views of the sea and sand ripples caused by wind sweeping across its surface.
 
After admiring these natural creations, head over to the Tottori Sand Museum nearby to marvel at some man-made wonders. The world’s first museum specialising in sand sculptures, masterpieces by sculptors from around the world are exhibited here. As the sculptures are made of sand, they eventually collapse, making their transience part of the attraction.

Joining Follow Me Japan’s tours brings you off the typical tourist paths and also introduces you to some of best restaurants that only locals know about. However, travelling has to be about something a little more to be truly meaningful. Our answer to the “little more” can be found in people—the people that you will meet in our local activity day.
 
Today, many of you will be brought back to your childhood days as we visit a local school. Aside from getting an intimate glimpse of the daily lives of Japanese children, through deeper interaction with the town people, you will be further entrenched into the social fabric of this small rural town – emblematic of countless small towns throughout Japan with a diminishing workforce and aging population.
