Japan is a country of untold natural beauty and
warm friendly people. This fascinating land of contrasts, an engaging combination of
futuristic cities, ancient culture and stunning natural landscapes.
Its contrasts between the old and the new, the traditional and
modern, East and West, have lured millions the world over to this
mystifying kingdom. Our Japan Unescorted program is an exciting and totally different concept designed for travelers who want to experience the best of Japan at their
own pace. Your tour includes a Japan Travel Aid (guide) on your first
day in Tokyo to help you tailor-make your very own Japan expedition as well
as to teach you all there is to know about traveling on your own in Japan.
