Hit every beat of this beloved destination, from Shinto to shabu-shabu.
Japan strikes a balance between tradition and modernity like few other places—where else can you walk from a demure shrine to a dynamic neighborhood in a matter of minutes? If you’re looking to take in this country’s best (think: Mount Fuji, Kyoto’s Temple of the Golden Pavilion, and more), this tour’s your ticket. Book the extension to laid-back Osaka and historic Hiroshima to dig even deeper into the nation’s culture and maybe, just maybe, hit highlights you weren’t expecting to find.
