Japan, 12 Days · Classic tour
Every country has its own symbols, and if there is one that stands out in Japan above many others, it is the majestic Mount Fuji, elusive and famously fond of hiding in low clouds and mist. FGetting a picture of Fuji-san in the clear on a sunny day is an achievement for many. This will be one of our objectives on this route, which starts in Sapporo, on the island of Hokkaido, and runs through the north of the island of Honshu, the main island of the archipelago, through Yamadera, Aizuwakamatsu and Mito before arriving in the great capital, Tokyo. From there we head to Kawaguchiko, north of Mt. Kawaguchiko, a spectacular area where nature and tradition go hand in hand, and where we also experience sleeping in a ryokan, a traditional Japanese lodge. Nara and Kyoto, the former imperial capital with its rich cultural heritage, will be our last stops.

Flight
Overnight stay on board.
- Triple rooms in Japan are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.
- Please check with your international vaccination centre about the recommended healthcare measures in Japan.
- Depending on the return flight, the trip may be one day longer.
- In Japan double beds are not common. If you want to have rooms with double beds during your trip, you must let us know in advance. We will do everything possible so that you can enjoy them, but we can not guarantee their use in advance in any case; They will always be subject to availability upon arrival at each of the hotels. Individual rooms may be, in some cases, smaller than the double rooms.
- In general, people with tattoos are not accepted in the onsen for cultural reasons. If they're small tattoos, they could be covered with a plaster, but access isn't guaranteed if the tattoos are large.
- In winter, the route that leads to Mount Fuji 5th Station is often closed by snow or as a result of other weather-related reasons. If this happens on your trip, you will reach the point permitted by the authorities.
- IAt the planned Ryokan some rooms may be Japanese style with tatami mat accommodation and others may be Western style. On some occasions, accommodation may be provided in a western-style hotel.
- To make it easier to meet up with the transfer staff, we will need your mobile phone number.
- The view of Mount Fuji depends entirely on the weather and can never be guaranteed.
- The order of the itinerary may be altered for logistical reasons, without prior notice, but no scheduled trips will be cancelled (except in the case that adverse weather conditions prevent its realisation).
- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.
- Prices are calculated based on admission fees to the sights as of the date of publication. If there is an increase in these prices, you will be promptly informed.
- If you are a person with reduced mobility, please contact us to confirm the suitability of the trip.
- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
