Explore Japan’s many sides, combining Tokyo and Mount Fuji with tropical island hopping - includes flights, hotel options, transfers and excursions

Immerse yourself in the breathtaking diversity of Japan on an unforgettable round-trip tour, where a dazzling journey of urban and cultural wonders builds toward its unmistakable showstopper—a spectacular finale on the pristine, sub-tropical sands of Ishigaki Island. Your adventure begins in the dazzling metropolis of Tokyo, where the electric neon streetscapes contrast beautifully with quiet shrines and ancient temples. You'll journey onward via the iconic bullet train to the misty peaks of Hakone to seek out stunning views of Mount Fuji before heading to the historic capital of Kyoto to experience its classic wooden teahouses. After some time in the history-rich city of Hiroshima, you'll cross over to Japan's major southern island of Kyushu to sample the cosmopolitan food culture of Fukuoka. From here, catch your flight to the spectacular sub-tropical archipelago of Okinawa to unwind on Ishigaki Island - an otherworldly paradise of white sands and emerald waters. Conclude your tour by returning to the bright lights of the capital.

If all of this wasn't enough, you'll also have the freedom to choose your preferred hotel category, enjoy included guided night strolls through Tokyo and Kyoto, and select from a range of exciting optional excursions to perfectly customise your dream Japanese escape.
