Our Japan journeys

These are some of our favourite Japan journeys, which we hope will help kick-start your planning. We tailor each and every holiday to suit you and your preferences - you call the shots, and we make it happen.

Beyond the Golden Route

Between the big cities

Japan has so much more nuance and variation to offer beyond its cinematic headliners. Taking inspiration from the Japanese art of kintsugi - repairing objects with gold - we’ve shattered Japan’s classic ‘Golden Route’ and bonded it back together with a little more samurai history, scenic views, lesser-visited cities, spirituality, and a touch of coastal connection.

Following Ancient Trails

Japan’s walking trails

Wander along the ancient trails of Kumano Kodo and its spiritual shrines, enjoying the peaceful, and enchanting surroundings as well as taking in the hospitality of local families along the way. A serene and meditative walking tour such as this can be part of a larger itinerary, or be the centre of a trip in its own right.
