Itinerary

Japan’s contrasts take center stage on the “Japan Adventure 13 Day” tour, a vibrant group journey made for young adults looking to experience the country’s dynamic culture, history, and landscapes. From Tokyo’s neon buzz to Kyoto’s tranquil shrines, this easy-paced city sightseeing trip is packed with unforgettable moments.

Roll sushi, soak in hot springs with snow monkeys, and train with a samurai master. Traverse ancient castles, stay overnight with monks in a 1,000-year-old Buddhist temple, and experience unique Japanese accommodations along the way. With a dedicated group leader and instant camaraderie, every day brings new discoveries and lifelong friendships.

Accommodation, meals, and transport are included, making your adventure seamless from start to finish. The main activities center on cultural exploration and hands-on experiences, while the unique selling point is the access to rare traditions—like the temple stay and samurai training—not found on most tours.

If you’re seeking a Japan trip that goes beyond the surface, this journey delivers authentic, immersive adventure at every turn.

13 day trip through Japan. Buckle up and get ready for a non-stop adventure! Lachlan Fleming took a group of 9 strangers on one of the most memorable tours through Japan. Non stop laughs, stunning views and exposure to some of Japan rich history and culture. Lachlan is a wealth of information and exceptional at group leading. He condoned himself in one of the most skilled professional formats I have experienced. Taking the time to get to know each of us one on one. His ability to read the group and everyones personalities was spot on. Connecting everyone through group activities and unreal food. Nailed it! We would all group up in free time, sharing meals and exploring outside of the guided time. Which in turn brought the group even closer. I cannot express my gratitude enough on this his ability to unify the group! It was amazing. Hes also pretty good at karaoke. This trip covered it all, jam packed but it kept a good balance of free time to explore, or rest and recharge for the next day. Each night Lachlan would give us the game plan, timing and locations for the following day. Communication was amazing. If a member wanted to go off on their own for a bit he would drop map pins for meat up points. This was another impressive skill Lachlan had. He was very organized and constantly kept watching over the group to prevent anyone from getting lost or frustrated in where to go. If you are a foodie and like trying new dishes then his recommendation was also on point. For me, every dinner, actually every meal was a home run. Throughout the trip Lachlan would sit with us to discuss our plans after the tour, most of us had more Adventures planned before heading home. He took this time to help us plan, navigate and give us a list of sites to see in the areas we were heading to. Making sure we were all comfortable and had organized plans when leaving on our last day. At the end it was an emotional goodbye for all. Started as 10 strangers, 2 week later 10 friends saying goodbye. The 2 weeks I spent with this group will be remembered forever. I can;t thank Intro Travel and our unreal guide Lachlan Fleming enough. 12/10 experience!!!!

The 13 day Japan Adventure was absolutely amazing thanks to our group leader Lachie Fleming. Lachie is incredible at his job - so approachable, knowledgeable, passionate, genuine, professional, organised yet flexible and such a laugh at the same time. He knows the ins and outs of each City, history, hot spots and had limitless options no matter what your interests were. Being a 24/7 job, Lachie was always available, consistent, high energy, positive and navigated his way around with such ease which meant we could just switch off and not worry about anything. Lachie never failed to go above and beyond to ensure everyone was having the best time and honestly made this trip an 11/10. Our group consisted of ages 23-38 and the tour was definitely catered to all. All the activities, accommodation, food and travel included were phenomenal for the price - I couldnt fault anything and would do it again tomorrow! First time in Japan and definitely not the last thanks to Intro Travel.

I just finished the 13 day Japan tour with Dan as group leader. This was my first Intro trip and I booked on to another whilst there! The tour was amazing, with a good mix of different places, activities and free time. Dan was extremely knowledgeable, made sure we had everything we needed and always brought the energy. I highly recommend this trip, I only wish I could have Dan as my group leader for future tours.
