Explore the bustling city of Tokyo, visiting famous
attractions such as Tokyo Tower and Asakusa Sensoji
Temple. Learn to make your own sushi with the
guidance
of a professional sushi chef. If the season is right, visit
Ueno Park in Tokyo to see 1000s of cherry trees, or
admire the autumn foliage while also taking in the
wonderful views of Mt. Fuji (if weather permits). Visit
Kyoto
and Nara, both of which were once Japan's capital. You
will have exclusive access to the cities’ top gardens,
temples, shrines, and specialty shops. Additionally, you
will have the opportunity to experience a traditional
green
tea ceremony hosted by an apprentice geisha (maiko)
and
watch a kimono fashion show.
During your journey, travel through the remote Japanese
Alps, where something special can be seen each
season.
Takayama is beautifully preserved and has developed
its
own culture that is unique from the rest of Japan. Visit
the
charming village of Shirakawa-go, consisting of
traditional
houses with thatched roofs called Gassho-Zukuri. The
beautiful and less traveled city of Kanazawa is home to
the Kenrokuen Garden, one of Japan’s top three
gardens.
With 20 different varieties of cherry blossom trees
blooming in spring, it is a truly mesmerizing sight.
We plan our tours based on seasonal attractions with
must-see sites in every tour. Select tours will include the
Jigokudani Snow Monkey Park during winter or the
Takayama Sanno Spring Festival and cherry blossom
viewing during spring. For the autumn season,
opportunities to see the Takayama Hachiman Autumn
Festival and fall foliage is also possible depending on
selected tour dates. The Takayama Festivals are
considered two of the most beautiful festivals of Japan,
with a large parade of 1,000 people. Staged with
costumes and music performances, you will feel like
you're in 15th Century Japan.
