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 Fukuoka, one of Japan’s oldest cities, on the northern tip of Kyushu Island. It is 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. Rich with tradition and modern cultural attraction, contemporary art, architecture, shopping, and cuisine complement centuries’-old temples and shrines.

 

From here, off to Hiroshima, mostly known for the horrific split second on August 6, 1945, when it became the site of the world's first atomic bomb attack. Today it is a modern, cosmopolitan city with excellent cuisine and a bustling nightlife.

 

We have also included visits to Miyajima, Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter, Himeji, with its most magnificent castle, built in 1580. And then, onto Kyoto and Nara, old Japan with its quiet temples, sublime gardens, and colorful shrines.

 

Our tour ends in Osaka, Japan's third-largest city where things have always moved a bit faster. It packs more color than most cities with its dazzling neon and vivid storefronts. Above all, it is a city that loves to eat: its unofficial slogan is kuidaore ('eat until you drop'). At night, Osaka shines as it seems that everyone is out for a good meal and a good time.
