Our seven day Highlights of Japan Tour is the perfect way to see the major highlights of Japan in a short visit.

You will visit some of the most magnificent Heritage Sites in the world, including Kiyomizu Temple and the Golden Pavilion. In Kyoto we include visits to Nijo Castle and Sanjusangen-do, as well as the chance to experience a traditional tea ceremony. We spend one night at a traditional Japanese style hotel at the foot of Mount Fuji. Here you can experience authentic Japanese style cuisine, hot springs, and a trip around the majestic mountain.
