Japan rewards preparation — which is exactly where a tailor-made journey changes everything.
Tokyo first, dizzying and endearing, where you go from a century-old fish market to a ten-seat vinyl bar. Then the shinkansen glides to Kyoto: its 1,600 temples, its zen gardens, its Gion alleys where time stopped.
In between, we slip in what feels like you: a night in a ryokan with a private onsen, the museum island of Naoshima, the snow monkeys of Nagano, or Hiroshima and Miyajima to understand the country's soul. Japan rewards well-accompanied travellers.
