Bus Trip to Kobe

I am going to join a bus tour to Kobe this Sunday which is sponsored by the city government.
It'll take about three hours by bus from this city.
The purpose of this tour is to encourage couples, among the participants, to live in this city.
More and more young people are leaving this city and the ratio of elderly people is increasing.
I am not sure how many men and women are going to join.
But according to the flyer, there will be at least twelve of each.
Although we have to pay for a certain fee to join, it is much reasonable compared to going there on our own.
I hope I can meet and gain new friends on this trip.
