Begin with pickup from your hotel, accommodation, station, or another confirmed location within the selected Osaka service area. Relax in a private air-conditioned vehicle while travelling through the countryside towards Hokuei, the hometown of Detective Conan creator Gosho Aoyama.
Arrive in Conan Town and explore the area around Conan Station and Conan Avenue. Follow a playful route featuring character statues, themed displays, bridges, shops, and photo spots inspired by the world of Detective Conan. Unlike a single museum visit, the town itself becomes part of the experience, allowing fans to discover familiar characters throughout the streets.
Continue to the Gosho Aoyama Manga Factory, also known as the Gosho Aoyama Hometown Museum. The museum introduces the life, creative work, and manga career of Gosho Aoyama through original materials, displays, interactive exhibits, and artwork connected with Detective Conan.
After exploring Conan Town, travel east towards the Tottori Sand Dunes. Walk across broad slopes shaped by wind and weather, enjoy views towards the Sea of Japan, and photograph footprints, ridgelines, and changing sand textures.
Visit the nearby Sand Museum, an indoor museum dedicated to large-scale sand sculptures created around changing international themes. The detailed works transform sand into buildings, landscapes, historical figures, and dramatic scenes.
The special feature of this tour is the contrast between two creative worlds. In Hokuei, manga characters extend from the museum into an entire town. In Tottori, natural sand shaped by wind is transformed into monumental art by international sculptors. The itinerary combines a character-themed pilgrimage, a coastal landscape, and an indoor art exhibition rather than focusing only on the sand dunes.
The standard route ends in Osaka. Drop-off in central Kyoto may be requested in advance and is subject to route confirmation.
