Itinerary
From Kyoto’s golden temples to the icy seas of Hokkaido, visit Japan for a winter journey that combines iconic sights with rare seasonal experiences. You’ll wander through bamboo forests, hear the stories of Ainu artisans and cruise aboard an icebreaker. Discover Japan’s wintry beauty through cultural encounters, scenic rail journeys and a Stays with Stories experience at a traditional onsen.
A departure is shown as 'Definite Departure' once it has reached a minimum number of guests. That particular departure will definitely run, barring any extraordinary circumstances.
We update these regularly, and you can book any departure. While it is highly unlikely a departure doesn't meet the minimum number of guests, you will be offered the best alternative dates or a full refund of any payment made if this is the case.
If there are ever any changes to your departure, we will contact you.
How can I book flights for my tour? What about extra hotel nights?
