Tokyo, Fuji & Kyoto

This journey is a relaxed introduction to Japan, combining Tokyo’s energy with the scenic Mount Fuji region and the cultural highlights of Kyoto.

Begin in Tokyo, with time to explore the city and the option to visit nearby Nikko. Travel on to Hakone for views of Mount Fuji and time to enjoy the surrounding countryside.

Continue by bullet train to Kyoto, where you will experience traditional Japan, with included sightseeing and a guided walk through the Gion district.

Which Airlines do you use?

We work with all the major airlines flying to Japan.

Typically for Japan, British Airways, Japan Airlines and Finnair are the airlines we use the most but we work with all airlines flying to Japan and the Far East.

Finnair often have excellent fares and flying times are very quick via Helsinki.

However, just let us know your preferred airline if you have one. We can organise flights from any regional destination in the UK.

There are direct flights from the UK to Tokyo and Osaka.

Which Hotels do you use?

We're careful with our choice of hotels, but we're guided by our customers also. If you have some preferred hotels, just let us know.

We specialise in boutique hotels and so we will often suggest some of our favourite smaller hotels where we think these will be suitable.

The main cities in Japan are fairly short on boutique hotels in general however and most hotels are functional, business style hotels, but always impeccably clean and usually conveniently located.

Bear in mind that rooms can often be small in Japan, particularly in Tokyo which has some of the smallest hotel room-sizes in the world. If room-size is important, let us know.

It's important to choose hotels carefully in Japan. Tokyo in particular is huge and getting the right location for what you want to do is important or you may find yourselves miles from anywhere.

Especially for those doing rail travel in Japan, being within easy access of the station is very useful and will save a lot of time.
