Shikoku Japan Takayama Ritsurin Gardens

A Yūgen Path to Shikoku

Honshu & Shikoku

Whether you’re seeing Japan for the first time or returning to explore further, the route less travelled towards Shikoku offers a core of history and culture that’s deeply connected to Japan’s natural heartbeat.  Make your way from Osaka to the folklore-rich gardens of Okayama, and cross to Shikoku for a change of pace. Stand on the line where art and nature meet in Naoshima, hop on two wheels to ride the Shimanami Kaido trail, and connect with a gentler side to Japan.

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.
