Itinerary at a Glance
17 days Takayama & Villages | Grand Tour - Cherry Blossom Seasonal Tour
From Tokyo To Osaka
Step off the beaten path and immerse yourself in the full richness of Japan’s spring beauty. This 15-day fully escorted Takayama Grand Tour showcases not only iconic landscapes like Mt. Fuji and Kyoto’s historic temples, but also takes you deeper—to the serene alpine towns of Takayama, the living traditions of Kanazawa, and the nostalgic post towns of Nagano. From the volcanic scenery of Kyushu to the artisan culture of Shikoku, the itinerary offers a rare opportunity to experience Japan’s lesser-known regions without sacrificing comfort. Explore perfectly preserved samurai districts, UNESCO-listed villages, coastal sanctuaries, and dramatic gorges—each destination chosen for its authenticity and seasonal splendor.

Travel is seamless by bullet train and private coach, allowing you to focus on what matters most: connection, culture, and discovery.
