Culturally unique and scenically beautiful there is nothing quite like a holiday to Japan and it continues to grow in popularity. Alongside soaring skyscrapers, and neon lights, treasured ancient traditions like the graceful geisha, and the art of the tea ceremony still hold their place in daily Japanese life. Amongst the history and religious shrines, you’ll find modern cities, meet the politest people you are ever likely to encounter, dine on delicious local delicacies and discover why Japan continues to be a ‘must visit’ destination.
Our 20-day Very Best of Japan tour gives you the chance to see some of this amazing country’s best highlights at a leisurely pace. During the tour, you’ll visit some of the country’s best-known attractions and cities, such as Tokyo, Mount Fuji, Kyoto and Hiroshima. We will also show you some of Japan’s lesser-known spots and hidden gems, such as the beautiful preserved old towns of Takayama and Kurashiki and the delightful Higashi Chaya district in Kanazawa. We visit not one, but two of Japan’s most famous gardens, ride the famous bullet train, learn to make sushi and even have dinner with a Maiko, an apprentice Geisha. For those that wish there is also an opportunity to stay in a traditional Japanese Ryokan.
Along the way, you’ll be guided by our expert Distant Journeys Tour Manager, who is there to ensure you get the very best from your holiday, whether there are arrangements you need or you’re simply seeking advice on the local area.
With quality accommodation, breakfast, transport and several meals also all taken care of for you, our Japan tours offer exceptional value for money as well as an adventure that you will never forget.
