About this trip
A 14-day private tour across Japan, with your own guide and driver taking you from Tokyo all the way to Osaka, covering both the big cultural cities and some quieter mountain towns along the way.
The route moves from Tokyo's energy out to Mt Fuji, then into the Japanese Alps for Nagano's temples and hot springs, Takayama's old crafts and streets, and Kanazawa's gardens. From there it's on to the classic Kyoto and Nara stretch, before finishing in Osaka with a side trip to Hiroshima and Miyajima.
With accommodation, tickets, bullet train travel, meals and a guide all included, this is a done-for-you way to see a wide cross-section of Japan without managing the logistics yourself.
