Japan tours explore an island moderate in size but large in history, culture and natural beauty. On escorted Japan tours, an experienced guide points out the sights and leads groups on visits to featured destinations. We also offer independent Japan tours if you like to travel at your own pace.

Japan tours highlight many attractive destinations. Most Japan tours include a stay in Tokyo, a major modern city bustling with activity. The famous Ginza area, a popular place to spend free time on Japan tours, is brimming with neon signs, department stores and restaurants. Not far from Tokyo is majestic Mount Fuji, a scenic option on Japan trips that provides a pleasant contrast to the big-city Tokyo experience.

Japan tours also might visit Matsumoto Castle or the Japan Folklore Museum in Matsumoto. On some Japan travel itineraries, you'll drive through the Japanese Alps and visit secluded villages and towns hidden among the peaks. History enthusiasts will appreciate the World War II memorials of Hiroshima, an included stop on several Japan trips.

When you travel on one of our Japan vacations, you'll see centuries-old historic shrines and castles. Frequently, Japan tours will stop in small, quaint villages where local artisans are busy at work making baskets, carving wood or dying silk. You might witness a Geisha performance or enjoy a glass of sake at a local bar or restaurant. Wherever our Japan vacations may take you, the country's culture comes alive with every experience.
