What to expect

Kobe Port Tower was built in 1963 and is located in Meriken Park. It is a sightseeing tower and a landmark of Kobe. The red tower is built with a conduit structure, and its drum shape (Japanese musical instrument) is very curved. The tower is 108 meters high, and there is an observation deck on the top of the tower, which can overlook 360 degrees. Under the tower are the bustling streets of Kobe, such as Motomachi, Kitano and Nanjing Street, and you can overlook the scenery of Osaka, Awaji Island, Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, Kobe Airport, and Rokko Mountain. There is a rotary cafe and a souvenir shop in the museum. The bright red façade is beautifully illuminated by the lights, in stark contrast to the white façade of the adjacent Kobe Maritime Museum.

Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel this booking?

Every option shows its own cancellation terms before you pay — where free cancellation applies, the window closes at 00:00 (midnight), local time at the destination, on the cut-off day. Cancel from My bookings within the window for a full refund (once your ticket has been issued, message support inside the window and we cancel it for you); after it, the option's terms apply. Full details in our cancellation & refund policy.

Can I change the date of my booking?

Date changes aren't automatic — they depend on the operator. Email support@readytrip.com from the address you booked with, quoting your booking reference and the new date you'd like, and we'll ask the operator for you. Changes are subject to their approval and availability; if the date can't be moved, your booking's cancellation terms apply.
