Japan holidays

Like stepping into another world, Japan holidays offer the visitor diverse options and fresh discoveries, from scenic landscapes viewed from an outdoor hot spring to the bustling city of Tokyo lit with thousands of neon lights.

A Japan holiday with Abercrombie & Kent allows you to truly savour the unique culture and dramatic landscape that defines this country.

Japan consists of over 6,800 islands offering varying climates. The main island of Honshu boasts the country's two main gateways, Tokyo famed for its vibrancy and modern feel and Osaka dubbed the "Kitchen of the Nation" for its rich food culture - and great food is always a prominent feature of a luxury holiday in Japan. 

Kyoto is very much the Japan of the imagination, a city of grand palaces, ornate shrines wonderful gardens and where Geisha still shuffle along the streets. A holiday in Japan would not be complete without a visit to the iconic Mount Fuji.

Pricing

At A&K all of our journeys are individually tailored to suit your needs and timescale. However, as a guide, a 12 night journey in Japan will cost from £6,995 per person based on two adults sharing with flights from the UK and subject to availability.
