Historical Japan Fall Break Tour 2020

October 3-10, 2020 - Escorted from Honolulu

From: $2,895 per person double or triple occupancy; $3,395 single occupancy

Japan has a rich history that stretches back thousands of years and the country's ancestors have left their imprint everywhere. It is a world apart – a cultural Galápagos where a unique civilization blossomed, and today thrives in delicious contrasts of traditional and modern.

We begin in Hakata, on the northern tip of Kyushu Island, western Japan’s most happening city and gateway to the country. Set amid splendid natural diversity – bordered by mountains, flanked by sea, and dotted with hot springs – the metropolis is an exciting hub of modern city life.

From here, we journey to Hiroshima, where at exactly fifteen minutes past eight in the morning, on August 6^th, 1945, at that moment the atomic bomb flashed over the city. And then, Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter, Kojima Jeans Town, Himeji, with its natural treasure, the White Heron Castle, one of twelve original castles in Japan.

The tour moves on to Kobe, perched on a hillside sloping down to the sea, once a maritime gateway from the earliest days of trade with China. We end with Osaka, Japan's third-largest city & Kyoto, old Japan, complete with atmospheric temples, subline gardens and traditional teahouses.

There is more, including a hands-on experience, sake brewery visit, bullet train ride and a free day in Osaka

Whether it’s your first visit or a seasoned traveler, young or old, this tour hits all the spots.
