Why experience Japan with Contiki?

Small group, big connection

Our Japan trips average around 20 people (30 max), the perfect amount for in-depth chats and immersive experiences.

Stays are part of the story

Sleep in a ryokan with a private onsen and wake to a hand-plated breakfast at a traditional Buddhist guesthouse. In Japan, your stay is always part of the story.

Trip Managers & Local Guides

Your friendly Trip Manager stays with you for the whole trip, and they’re joined by Local Guides who know each bit of Japan, inside and out.

Don't just take our word for it

Frequently asked questions about Japan

Japan really is magical all year round (how lucky are we?). So, the best time to visit really depends on what you’re looking for. Want to spot Mt Fuji? Then visit Japan in June or July for those crystal clear views (and we highly recommend sticking around for the firework festivals too!) 

If you wanna catch Japan in all its winter glory and ski down those spectacular slopes - book our Japan Winter Wonder trip between November and March. And if colorful cherry blossoms are what you’re looking for, then visit Japan in April or May.
