This journey takes you across Japan’s most iconic destinations, blending vibrant cities, historic landmarks, and scenic landscapes into one seamless itinerary. From Tokyo’s dynamic neighborhoods and sacred shrines to Kyoto’s timeless streets, Nara’s ancient heritage, Osaka’s energy, and Hiroshima’s moving history, each day reveals a different side of Japan.
Travel effortlessly between regions aboard the Shinkansen bullet train, with a chance to glimpse Mt. Fuji along the way. Guided sightseeing ensures you gain deeper insight into each destination, while thoughtfully scheduled free time allows you to explore at your own pace and follow your personal interests.
An optional private day trip offers added flexibility, letting you choose between breathtaking Mt. Fuji scenery, relaxing hot spring regions, coastal temple towns, or mountain heritage landscapes. Carefully arranged transportation, expert guides, and a balanced schedule make this tour comfortable, enriching, and stress-free from start to finish.
Whether you are visiting Japan for the first time or seeking a well-structured way to experience its highlights, this journey provides the perfect balance of discovery, culture, and ease.
Why This Tour Stands Out
- Perfect balance of guided support and free time — enjoy expert-led sightseeing while still having space to explore on your own.
- See Japan’s must-visit highlights efficiently — Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Osaka and Hiroshima all in one seamless itinerary.
- Flexible experiences to match your travel style — optional day trips and a full free day let you personalize your journey.
