Experience Japan on an unforgettable journey through Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto, with excursions, train transfers and an optional Nara stay
Japan is a country full of contrasts, where modern metropolises meet centuries-old traditions. Your journey begins in Tokyo, a fascinating cosmopolitan city with futuristic skyscrapers, colourful lights and a vibrant cultural scene. Explore the different neighbourhoods - such as trendy Shibuya and historic Asakusa - and enjoy the perfect mix of old and new. You’ll then travel to Osaka, known for its culinary delights and lively nightlife. Stroll through the famous streets of Dotonbori and be enchanted by the diverse flavours and warm hospitality of the locals. From Osaka, the journey continues to Kyoto, the former capital of Japan, which exudes a unique atmosphere with its well-preserved temples, traditional teahouses and peaceful Zen gardens. Here you will dive deep into Japanese culture and experience a journey back in time. For an even more immersive exploration, we recommend opting for the 11-night version to spend an extra night in Nara. This way, you can get up close and personal with the beautiful deer which roam Nara Park, see Tōdai-ji Temple, and gaze up at the imposing Buddha statue.
Transportation between cities is conveniently provided by train, so you can focus on enjoying your experience. Let yourself be enchanted by the beauty and diversity of Japan and experience unforgettable moments in this extraordinary country.
