Discover Japan
Embark on a journey of discovery in The Land of The Rising Sun. Japan is a unique archipelago, spanning from sub-artic to sub-tropical zones, resulting in a magical, diverse island nation with varying climates and cultures throughout. From the frenetic pace of Tokyo to the serene temples of Kyoto, Japan promises rich memories to cherish forever.
The sprawling capital city of Tokyo unfolds on Honshu’s southern coast. An eclectic mix of districts results in a unique city that blends the skyscrapers of a futuristic metropolis with the temples, shrines, and Imperial palaces of a traditional landscape. Join the crowds at the iconic Shibuya crossing before finding some delicious Japanese food nearby. Admire Tokyo’s Street style and do some shopping of your own in the trendy districts of Harajuku, Ginza, and Ometosando. Get lost in the frenzy of lights, buildings, and crowds in Shinjuku while checking out all the entertainment on offer, then find some peace at the temples in Asakusa or along the river in Nakameguro.
Travel back in time in Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan until the late 19th century. Discover the pretty pathways of the Fushimi Inari Shrine, adorned with thousands of bright red torii gates. Experience the elegance of traditional tea ceremonies and witness the timeless grace of the Geishas as they perform in the historic Gion district. Marvel at the architectural splendor of the Kiyomizu-dera and Kinkaku-ji temples, with their respective red and golden facades, they are breathtaking examples of a city steeped in culture and heritage.
Nature lovers will find solace in Japan’s astonishing landscapes. Gaze at the iconic Mount Fuji, an enduring symbol of the nation’s beauty and resilience. Venture off the beaten path in Japanese Alpine regions like Hakone and Takayama to enjoy otherworldly hot springs and hiking trails. Time your trip to coincide with Sakura season, and marvel at the bright pink petals of the Cherry Blossom trees taking over the landscapes.
Japan’s culinary scene is a feast for the senses. Enjoy delicate sushi and sashimi, as you watch masterful chefs at work behind the counter. Slurp up big bowls of noodles, pork, and creamy tonkotsu broth at a local booth, or indulge in crisp tempura, fried to perfection, at a specialty restaurant. While on the go, try yakitori skewers at a market, or finish a meal with a rice-based mochi dessert. Sample a selection of sakes, Japanese whiskies, and teas as you eat your way around the country.
Japanese hospitality, known as omotenashi, is legendary. From luxurious Ryokan accommodations to attentive service at every turn, the warmth and genuine care of the Japanese people will make you feel like an honoured guest. Whether you’re interested in visiting a sumo wrestling match, dipping into an onsen, attending a traditional kabuki performance or just stopping by a local izakaya, Japanese hospitality will encourage you to immerse yourself in the culture and customs of Japan.
