Japan fascinates with its contrasts: silent temples and glowing cities, manicured gardens and bullet trains. Food, from sushi to ramen, sets the rhythm of your days.
Tokyo often serves as the gateway. Kyoto and its temples, Osaka and its street food, Nara and its deer extend the itinerary.
From Tokyo, the day trip to Mount Fuji and Hakone offers a day in nature, with a lake, mountain views and a return by bullet train. Activities in Japan also range from cooking classes to shrine visits.

Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Nara and Hiroshima make up a classic itinerary. Mount Fuji and Hakone can be visited on a day trip from Tokyo.
Spring for the cherry blossoms and fall for the red maples draw the most travelers. Summer is hot and humid, while winter suits skiing and hot springs.
A first trip often focuses on Tokyo, Kyoto and their surroundings. A longer stay lets you add Hiroshima, the Japanese Alps or Hokkaido.
The shinkansen links the major cities, and subways serve Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto. A Japan Rail Pass may suit you depending on your itinerary.
Theme parks, interactive museums, Nara's deer park and gardens appeal to children. Clean, punctual trains make travel simple.
