Japan vacations - Full of culture and charm

A world where modernity meets tradition

Japan evokes images of Geisha, onsen and tea ceremonies, mixed with modern cities and stunning scenery.

Culture lovers will enjoy energetic Tokyo, where modern skyscrapers and cutting-edge technology contrast with ancient temples and traditions. Families of all ages will love all the latest gadgets and great experiences. Venture further and nature lovers will find staggeringly beautiful scenery with perfectly manicured gardens, wide, open spaces, majestic mountains and glorious national parks.  Adventure seekers will find opportunities for hiking, outdoor activities and winter sports. Foodies will be in 7th heaven, sampling some of the world’s best cuisine.

Japan consists of four main islands: Honshu in central Japan; home to Tokyo, Kyoto and Mount Fuji. Hokkaido in northern Japan for rural mountain adventures. Shikoku and Kyushu in southern Japan for onsen springs and hiking among dramatic scenery.
