Welcome to Japan. Get to know an ancient culture of emperors, geishas, beautiful gardens and zen Buddhist temples and see the country’s most iconic sights.
On our Grand Tour of Japan, we'll visit many of the country's famous sites and experience an array of its cultural delights (including mouthwatering traditional dishes). Discover both the ultimate futuristic cityscapes of Tokyo and wild untouched natural landscapes, like that of Mount Fuji. Delve into the country's ancient history in Kyoto and its more sobering recent history in Hiroshima. We'll also travel off the beaten track by train, bus, cable cars, ropeway and Japan's last remaining trolley bus to explore the mountains of the Japanese Alps. Along the way we’ll visit many sacred temples, shrines and statues.
This in-depth tour is for travellers who don't just want to visit Japan, they want to feel like they've lived there.
