This tour is a snapshot of South Korea and Japan, two of the most highly developed economies in Asia, and two of the most colorful cultural mosaics in the east.
In Seoul, the powerhouse of South Korea and the epicenter of Hallyu, you will discover the celebrated Gyeonbok Guang palace, the traditional Bukchon Hanok Village, the authentic Gwangjang Market, and the tense border of the Korean Demilitarized Zone.
In Tokyo, the beating heart of Japan, you will explore the inviolable Shinto shrine dedicated to the Meiji Emperor, the lively Tsukiji Outer Market, the peaceful Imperial Palace, the Buddhist temple of Senso-Ji with the endless stream of pilgrims, and the sacred Mt. Fuji with picturesque surroundings.
Then a three hours Shinkansen ride will take you to Kyoto, the spiritual capital of the Japanese. Meet well-dressed geisha, capture perfect imagines of the Golden Pavilion, learn about the most powerful man of the Edo Period, stroll beneath the thousands of vermillion torii gates of Fushimi-Inari Shrine, and enjoy the natural beauty and cultural gems of Arashiyama.
