From the gracious temples of Kyoto to Tokyo's neon skyline, from soaring alps to languid tropical islands, Japan is far more diverse than many believe and a tailor made tour of Japan can easily combine these elements.

The mix of first world efficiency and the ‘otherness’ of Japan make for a fascinating trip and Japan can inspire even the most well-travelled. Culture and history abound in Kyoto, Nara and Nikko whilst Tokyo is the world metropolis supreme.

Outdoor lovers will love Hakone, the Alps or the wilds of Hokkaido and rural Japan is best experienced in Shikoku or Kyushi.
