A trip to Japan wouldn’t be complete without experiencing the bright lights and bustle of Tokyo, traveling to the majestic Meiji Shrine, or visiting the formidable Imperial Palace. Take the bullet train to Kyoto from Japan to walk the historic district, learn about their ancient culture, partake in a tea ceremony, and explore their wood-built castles – including Kyoto’s Nijō Castle and Osaka’s 16th-century castle.
We’ll make sure you get your fill of their world-famous cuisine including Kobe beef, sushi, and sashimi. There is never enough time to see all of Japan but the highlights of any well-planned journey by land or by cruise ship will be more than worthwhile.
