Introduction:
Our seven day Highlights of Japan Tour is the perfect way to see the major highlights of Japan in a short visit. Travelling between Kyoto and Tokyo, you will be able to compare the modern sky rise Japan with the historical cultural Japan. 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. Our tour ends in the vibrant capital Tokyo, where not only are the most famous highlights included, but also dinner at a traditional Izakaya restaurant.
