Overview
Ancient and ultra-modern sit shoulder to shoulder in Japan. Over two weeks, well experience both, exploring high-paced cities, hushed shrines and temples, and serene gardens. Well attend a traditional tea ceremony, learn a little about geisha and samurai culture, catch a glimpse of Mount Fuji and whizz between cities on the sleek, slick Shinkansen (bullet train). We travel in spring, when cherry blossoms and hydrangea bloom, and autumn, when maple trees are a blaze of fiery red and orange.
