We have curated our list of Japan’s 12-best destinations to give you a great overview of the country. We had several simple objectives:

• Places that are popular
• Easy for the first-timer to travel to
• Something special about each place
• Fit together with other destinations to create a fabulous itinerary

As Japan travel experts who have provided curated Japan travel experiences to thousands of travelers over the years, we’ve identified places that we know our clients have loved.  And since we have over 60 years of combined experience sending travelers on their own, we know how to get you going in the right direction.

Our simple, do-it-yourself (DIY) Daily plans for 7, 10 or 14-night trips provide complete instructions and plans for a reasonable price and with all the flexibility you need to make your trip work for you!

We have created a simple, 4-step process for selecting the best trip for your needs, so, if you haven’t visited it already, the place to start is our Step-by-Step Planning Page.
