Japan is a melting pot of experiences and this grand tour promises to serve up a three-week adventure like no other. From rural history, revered castles and ancient pathways to big cities, skyscraping towers and high-speed trains - we’ll see them all, not forgetting landscaped gardens, steaming volcanoes and bathing snow monkeys. We’ll discover hope in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and visit Japan’s spiritual heart at Mount Koya, all the while immersing ourselves in the country’s cuisine, culture and art.
