Experience ultra-modern cities, poignant history and timeless tradition on a fast-paced rail adventure from Tokyo to Osaka, with Kyoto time and the famed Shinkansen making every moment count.
  • Encounter the many faces of Japan in a short amount of time on this express adventure. See ultra-modern Tokyo, ancient traditions in Kyoto and everything in between.
  • Visit the Peace Park for a sobering insight into the devastation of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, then cruise to peaceful Miyajima Island where wild deer roam the streets.
  • Eat your way around Japan with chances to try all kinds of delicious street food, sake and snacks – think hearty bowls of ramen, world-class sashimi and char-grilled yakitori (chicken skewers).
  • Spend three nights in Kyoto, exploring this amazing ancient capital in depth – visit the Fushimi Inari Taisha shrine, famous for its thousands of crimson torii (gates) leading up Mt Inari. Plus, enjoy plenty of free time to create your own adventure.
  • Ride the renowned shinkansen bullet train and make use of public transport day passes to get to and from the activities you choose. Even getting from place to place is fun in Japan!
Stay in Japanese-style ryokans or minshukus, basic hotels and multishare hostels. Expect futons or mattresses on tatami floors, small attached bathrooms, and shared bathing facilities with set hours. Properties may have minimal furniture, a curfew around midnight, and slippers are required inside; some rooms provide a single shared key.
