Hand-crafted Travel to Japan

Japan is an island country offering a combination of ancient traditions and cutting-edge modernity. March, April and May is Japan’s cherry blossom season, bringing breathtaking beauty to cities like Tokyo and Kyoto, while the weather is perfect for exploring historic temples, gardens, and vibrant neighbourhoods. This season is ideal for visiting Kyoto’s traditional tea houses, Tokyo’s futuristic attractions, and the scenic beauty of Mount Fuji. During the summer period, the country is full of festivals and fireworks that bring a new lively atmosphere into the country, a great time to explore Japan’s coastal areas and islands, such as Okinawa. Autumn with its fall foliage is perfect for hiking in the Japanese Alps or exploring the colourful gardens in cities like Kanazawa. However, if you are a snow aficionado, winter is ideal for skiing in Hokkaido before soaking in hot springs in an onsen town. Japan offers diverse climates and experiences, perfect for both family vacations and solo adventures filled with unique encounters.

  • Stroll through the atmospheric streets of Takayama, ascending into the Japanese Alps for incredible views and scenic hiking trails. Experience the Takayama Festival, renowned as one of Japan’s most beautiful festivals.
  • Explore Kyoto’s stunning Buddhist and Dhinto shrines, a cultural and educational centrepiece of Japan. Participate in ancient rituals and savour the exquisite cuisine that reflects Kyoto’s rich heritage.
  • Take a boat trip to the nearby island of Itsukushima, or opt for a cable car ride to the top of Mt.Misen to enjoy the unique surroundings of Hiroshima Bay.
  • Spend a few nights in Hakone staying in a traditional ryokan for the ultimate relaxation experience, including soothing Onsen baths.
  • Feel the adrenaline rise as you heli-ski among the mountain ranges of Annupuri, famed for its powder snow created by the Siberian wind.
