      Nadia

      TravelerWritten July 2025

      Would prefer a smaller group. We are in our mid 60/70s so was attracted by pace and full guide. Wanted to avoid a lot of public transport and walking. Bullet train is fine. Don't mind 3 or 4 star.

      Nadia

      TravelerWritten August 2025

      Looking for something with mostly coach. Train ok. We are 66 & 76. So limited walking.

    • GlobusOperatorWritten August 2025

      Coach bus tours will be larger groups in general. Will this be okay?

    Why are there no November 2023 dates listed?

    Tour Details
    • GlobusOperatorWritten February 2023

      This is a new tour that starts operating in 2024, so it isn't available for 2023. We have a similar tour called Discover Japan with Hiroshima & Osaka. The latest departure for that tour this year is October 31-November 13.
