Kiyomizu-dera's wooden stage looks out over Kyoto's rooftops, and the walk down through Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka feels like a step back a century. This 6-day tour covers Tokyo, Mt Fuji, Nagoya, Kyoto, Nara and Osaka, one city a day, with a private air-conditioned vehicle and an English-speaking guide throughout.
It suits travellers who want Japan's landmarks covered in under a week and already have their flights sorted. A night near Mt Fuji brings an onsen and a Japanese-style dinner, and day five moves from Fushimi Inari's torii gates to Nara's deer and on to Osaka's Dotonbori. Spring and autumn departures add extra parks tied to cherry blossoms or autumn colour. Among Japan holiday packages, this is the land-only version, for travellers booking their own flights.
Day 1: Arrival in Tokyo You land at Narita or Haneda Airport, and a group transfer takes you to your Tokyo hotel. Once you have checked in, the rest of the day is free. Explore a nearby neighbourhood, find something to eat, or rest after the flight. No meals are included.
