Tour of Japan.
Starting in Hokkaido, visit the highlights of the
Northern Island which include Sapporo, Otaru,
Hakodate, and more. You will have the chance to see
amazing attractions in the highlighted cities, including
the Sapporo Clock Tower, the famous Otaru glassware
shop: Kitaichi Garasukan, and fresh food morning
markets in Hakodate. Take in the views from Mt.
Hakodate and visit Goryokaku Fort, a western-style
fort surrounded by beautiful cherry blossoms in spring.
Before leaving the island of Hokkaido, take the bullet
train through the Seikan Undersea Tunnel which
connects Hokkaido to the Japan's main island,
Honshu.
Once on the main island of Honshu make your way
through Matsushima and Nikko, both known for their
scenic views, temples, and shrines. In Nikko, visit
Toshogu Shrine, where you will see the famous
carving of the “See no Evil, Hear no Evil and Speak no
Evil” monkeys. Visit famous attractions in Tokyo,
Japan's capital, such as Tokyo Tower and Asakusa
Sensoji Temple. Unwind at your Japanese-style inn,
where you can enjoy the natural bath waters of the hot
springs before heading to the ancient city of Kyoto.
You will have exclusive access to the city’s top
gardens, temples, and shrines, and will enjoy a
traditional green tea ceremony hosted by an
apprentice geisha (maiko).
Travelers will also cross the Inland Sea to Shikoku
Island by a scenic drive across Shimanami Kaido
highway and visit Takamatsu, where you can visit one
of Japan’s most beautiful landscape gardens. Pay a
visit to Hiroshima, a city destroyed by an atomic bomb
during World War II. Today, the city flourishes and
offers shopping centers, beautiful gardens, and the
Memorial Peace Park. Travel to Kyushu to visit
hidden-gems in Beppu, Takachiho, Nagasaki, and
Fukuoka. Watch 1,500 wild Japanese macaques
monkeys in their natural habitat in Beppu and enjoy a
trip to the mythological town of Takachiho, where you
can watch as performers reenact the legend of
Amaterasu, the Shinto Sun Goddess. Enjoy your last
