Tours and Trip Packages to Mt Fuji in March 2025

“I recently returned from the Backroads of Japan and honestly can't say enough about our leader Alena. She is truly passionate about Japan was generous in sharing her incredible knowledge of the country and enthusiasm. She went above and beyond every single day to make sure each person on the tour had a great experience. Even on "free days" she made sure everyone had a plan and knew how to get from place to place. Thank you for making our trip amazing!”

“We recently undertook a Backroads of Japan tour with this tour company. This is the third time we have used this company having undertaken both their Mont Blanc seven day trek from Chamonix and their Canadian Rockies tour. They have all been great but this Japanese trip was extraordinary. Well balanced it provided the opportunity for us to experience the main cities Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka but with a focus on the Backroads country from the Nakasendo path - the ancient pilgrim trail connecting Tokyo and Kyoto- with some stunning experiences in lesser known places around Nara and Osaka e.g. Yoshino and Dorogawa. We experienced ancient villages; stayed in authentic ryokans dating back 300-400 years; visited some truly moving shrines and temple and experienced excellent Japanese cuisine in homely settings; tracked through beautiful mountains and forests and enjoyed marvelous relaxing onsens. Our guide was superb and made us all feel at home as she enthusiastically provided us with a locals view of this beautiful country. Highly recommended!!!”

“We had a great guide. Yumi looked after us very well throughout the tour. She also taught us how to take local transports which made our post-tour days so much easier. I had visited Japan 4 times previously. This tour is probably the best: an excellent mix of fast-paced modern cities and traditional, ancient regions. We were there at the perfect time and were rewarded with magnificent displays of cherry blossoms. We were so lucky to be able to share the enthusiasm and excitement the Japanese have for celebrating the cherry blossom season. Quite an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.”
