This small group journey to Tokyo, Kanazawa, Kaga Onsen, and Kyoto features intimate experiences and unique cultural encounters that help you discover the wonders of Japan. Your Japan vacation begins in Tokyo, the world’s largest city, where you’ll get a taste for some of its most iconic neighbourhoods on city tours. Tour Senso-ji, the oldest Buddhist temple in the city, leave the trendy crowds of Shibuya behind as you explore Meiji-jingu Shrine, dedicated to the late emperor, and go on a shopping spree in Ginza. A day trip to Hakone showcases the beauty of the Japanese countryside with a gondola ride and a lake cruise with Mount Fuji as your unbeatable backdrop.
Ride the bullet train to Kanazawa to continue your trip to Japan. Illuminating city tours showcase the geisha and samurai districts and show off Kenrokuen Garden, considered one of the three most beautiful gardens in Japan. You’ll also learn about some rich Japanese traditions as you join a tea ceremony and learn to make your own gold leaf. Head to the hot spring town of Kaga Onsen, stopping at the iconic thatched roof village of Shirakawa-go, which gives you insight into how people lived in the Japanese Alps in centuries past. In Kaga Onsen, check into your ryokan, a traditional Japanese inn, where you’ll wear traditional clothes, soak in the on-site onsen (hot spring), and enjoy a kaiseke dinner, a multi-course meal that is considered the height of Japanese cuisine.
The final stop on your Japanese vacation is Kyoto, arguably the most beautiful city in the country. Temple hop between some of the city’s most iconic landmarks, including Kinkaku-ji, known as the Golden Pavilion, Tenryu-ji, a renowned Zen temple, and the massive wooden temple of Kiyomizu-dera. You’ll also pass through the thousand vermillion torii gates of Fushimi Inari Taisha, which rises along a hillside in the city’s east, explore the bamboo grove of Arashiyama, and travel back in time in the geisha district of Gion.
