Springtime in Japan with snow monkeys Cruise & Tour

Moderately active
Japan is a scenic and cultural treat at any time of the year but in springtime, with the chance to see the famous cherry blossoms in bloom, it’s perhaps at its prettiest. Against this beautiful backdrop, we’ll tour Japan and experience its unique culture and scenic contrasts. We’ll join rituals and ceremonies, watch snow monkeys at play, speed across country by futuristic bullet train and be awed by the ultra-modern capital. After that we’ll slow the pace on a luxury two-week cruise circumnavigating Japan and her islands, hopping between historic ports and maritime towns with plenty of time for relaxation, exploration and enjoying life on board.
