Japan is an island nation in the North Pacific that blends neon cities, wooden temples, mountain hot springs and some of the world's finest food. Its trains run to the minute, its streets are spotless and safe, and its hospitality is legendary. Japanese is the language, English signage is common in cities and on trains, and the currency is the yen (JPY).
Why Japan for your vacation
Japan is the destination travelers describe as unlike anywhere else. Tokyo is the largest metropolitan area on Earth, yet Meiji Shrine's forest, Asakusa's Senso-ji temple and quiet backstreet neighborhoods sit minutes from Shibuya's crossing. Two hours west by bullet train, Kyoto preserves more than 1,600 temples, the torii tunnels of Fushimi Inari, the gold pavilion of Kinkaku-ji and the geisha district of Gion. Osaka adds street food and nightlife, Nara adds deer and the giant Buddha, and Hiroshima adds a moving peace memorial and the floating shrine gate of Miyajima. Hakone's hot-spring inns offer views of Mount Fuji, and every season brings a reason to visit, from cherry blossoms to autumn maples to Hokkaido's snow.
What's included in a Japan package
Every package is tailored, but a classic Japan itinerary includes:
- Round-trip flights on major airlines, nonstop from West Coast, East Coast and Midwest gateways to Tokyo or Osaka
- Hotels from well-known brands and independent properties in Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka, with an optional night in a traditional ryokan with hot-spring baths
- Reserved bullet-train seats or a rail pass, with airport transfers by train or private car
- Optional guided experiences: a Tokyo highlights day, a Kyoto temples and Gion walk, a Nara day trip, a Hiroshima and Miyajima excursion, a sushi-making class or a Mount Fuji tour
- Breakfast included at most hotels and dinner included at ryokan stays
- Travel protection and a single US-based point of contact throughout
Rates depend on season and hotel level, so call for current pricing on your dates. Japan pairs well with Thailand, Singapore or Bali for a longer Asia journey.
Best time to visit Japan
Japan has four distinct seasons. Spring, from late March to early April, brings cherry blossoms to Tokyo and Kyoto, with mild days in the 50s and 60s Fahrenheit and the highest demand of the year. Fall, from mid October through November, is equally beautiful, with crisp weather and red maples in Kyoto's temple gardens. May is green and pleasant after the Golden Week holidays in late April and early May, when domestic travel peaks. June is the rainy season, July and August are hot and humid with lively festivals and fireworks, and typhoons can arrive from August to early October. Winter is cold and clear in the cities, with world-class skiing in Hokkaido and Nagano from December to March. Japan is on UTC+9, 13 to 14 hours ahead of US Eastern Time.
Where to stay: areas and resort styles
Japanese hotels range from efficient business hotels to grand towers and centuries-old inns, and neighborhood choice shapes your trip.
- Tokyo: Shinjuku and Shibuya for nightlife and transport links, Ginza and Marunouchi for luxury towers near the station, Asakusa for a traditional feel
- Kyoto: hotels near Kyoto Station for bullet-train convenience, Gion and Higashiyama for temples and teahouses, or a machiya townhouse rental
- Osaka: Namba and Dotonbori for food and nightlife, Umeda for shopping and rail links
- Hakone and hot-spring towns: ryokan inns with tatami rooms, kaiseki dinners and outdoor baths
- Hiroshima and Miyajima: city hotels near the Peace Park or island inns for sunset at the shrine gate
Tell your expert whether you want Western-style rooms, a ryokan night or both.
Things to do in Japan
- Cross the Shibuya scramble, visit Meiji Shrine and Senso-ji, and eat sushi at the Tsukiji outer market
- Walk through thousands of red torii gates at Fushimi Inari and stroll Kyoto's Arashiyama bamboo grove
- See Kinkaku-ji, Kiyomizu-dera and the geisha streets of Gion at dusk
- Feed the deer and see the Great Buddha at Nara
- Reflect at Hiroshima's Peace Memorial, then ferry to Miyajima's floating torii
- Soak in a hot spring at Hakone with Mount Fuji views, and ride the ropeway over volcanic Owakudani
- Eat your way through Osaka's Dotonbori for takoyaki and okonomiyaki
- Take a tea ceremony, a sushi class or a sumo practice visit
Getting there from the US
Japan is one of the easiest long-haul destinations to reach from the US. Nonstop flights to Tokyo's Haneda or Narita airports take roughly 11 to 12 hours from West Coast gateways such as Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle, and roughly 13 to 14 hours from New York, Washington, Boston and Chicago, with nonstop service also from Dallas, Houston and Atlanta. Osaka's Kansai airport has nonstop flights from selected West Coast cities. US passport holders can visit Japan for up to 90 days without a visa for tourism, though Japan is introducing an electronic pre-arrival screening, so verify requirements before travel. Passports should be valid for the duration of your stay.
Who this package suits
Japan is ideal for couples and honeymooners who want culture, food and a romantic ryokan night, and for families with children who love trains, anime, robots and theme parks. Seniors appreciate the safety, cleanliness and punctual transport; we plan gentle walking days and hotels near stations, and you can ask about our senior travel reservations. Student groups, culinary tours and friends' trips use our group travel flights to coordinate. Solo travelers find Japan the easiest country in Asia to explore alone. For the Pacific crossing, ask about business class or first class fares within your package.
