From South to North of Japan
This two-week trip through Japan moves at a perfect pace, starting in Hiroshima and continuing through the food and energy of Osaka and the calm traditions of Kyoto. Tokyo brings big-city excitement before slowing down in Fujiyoshida near Mount Fuji. The journey ends in Sapporo, with cooler air, open spaces, and a completely different feel that makes the trip unforgettable.
