Highlights

- Explore some of Japan’s northern natural wonders. See Hell Valley’s volcanic steam, Mt Asahi’s peaks and the serene waters of Lake Shikotsu and discover the culture of Ainu people – the first indigenous group in Hokkaido.
- Treat your taste buds to a signature Okonomiyaki pancake in Hiroshima, sample Osaka's best street food and savour a signature Kaiseki dinner in a ryokan.
- Ride the rails like the locals, from lightning-fast bullet trains to scenic mountain rails offering seasonal views of cherry blossoms and autumn leaves.
- Stay in two local ryokan hotels and immerse yourself in the iconic Japanese onsens (relaxing natural hot springs).
