The samurai were a special class in Japanese society. These revered warriors were highly respected for their strict dedication to their craft, the immense discipline required of a samurai and their indomitable fighting spirit. To many they were heroes.
Although samurai do not have any official status in today’s modern Japan, descendants of samurai families still enjoy a high esteem among the Japanese population and have remained an iconic symbol of courage, power, and masculinity for over 700 years of Japanese warfare history.
Roads are an essential part of civilization. They help people travel and discover many different places. In Japan, during the Edo period the Tokaido (East Sea Road) was an important key artery for the ruling shogun dynasty to keep control over the country. Stretching along the Pacific Coast from Edo (Tokyo) to Osaka, two to three weeks on foot, was always an adventure.
Does the Tokaido Road and the travelling life of a samurai sound exciting? Join us on this unique tour for a taste of what these samurai experienced, our the 21st century version.

Japan developed a nationwide network of roads and highways dating back to the 7th century as a method of carrying items on foot and horseback, as well as transporting goods between towns and villages. These major roads, called kaido originated from the capital of Kyoto.
There were seven major highways, ranked into three grades: the dairo, or principal highway (San’yodo), two churo, or secondary highways (Tokaido and Tosando), and four shoro, or lesser highways. The San’yodo was awarded prominence because it connected the Kinai with Daizaifu, an important provincial capital in northern Kyushu.
Northern Kyushu was the gateway where Japan came into direct contact with foreign countries. Daizaifu was the point of arrival in Japan for Chinese and Korean emissaries and skilled craftsmen. Even today, many Japanese like to think of this highway as the final leg of the ancient Silk Road.
Join us on this unique tour as we rediscover the Sanyodo Highway beginning in Hakata and traveling to Hiroshima, Miyajima, Kurashiki, Okayama, Kobe, and Osaka.
Besides the historic sightseeing we have included at visit to the Uminaka Flower Festival, two hands-on experiences, Momiji pancake making in Miyajima and lucky cat painting in Okayama.

Join us on this very special Halloween weekend Omiyage tour to Tokyo.
In Tokyo before the malls and department stores there were shopping streets. These streets were lined with merchants and it was where local folk shopped. On these streets you would find green grocers, butchers, sake, and rice sellers as well as local crafts, restaurants and street vendors selling delicious inexpensive food. They anchored the neighborhood and sort of made for lively city life in old school Tokyo.
This tradition continues today, it is still the way of life for many Tokyoites. Come discover some of Tokyo’s best shopping streets, Ameyoko & Nakamise, as well Tsukiji Fish Market and Komachi-Dori Shopping Street on our day trip to Kamakura.
It’s also Halloween weekend and there is nothing like being in Japan for Halloween, especially here in Tokyo. Halloween is quite different here from elsewhere in the world, rather than being carried out like the traditional “trick-or-treat”, here in Japan it is best described as “National Dress Up Day”. Be a part of this incredible day as we visit Harajuku, a drive through Shibuya Scramble Crossing and a themed Halloween dinner. This celebration has become a massive hit in Tokyo in recent years and we will be there live to partake in the festivities.
Lastly, it’s the beginning of foliage season and we hope to catch a glimpse along the way at the popular viewing sites of Meiji and Rikugien Garden.
A weekend to be long remembered!

Roads are an essential part of civilization. They help people travel and discover many different places. In Japan, the Tōkaidō (East Sea Road) was considered the most important route used during the Edo period.

First, the town of Kawagoe, known as “Little Edo”, its main street filled with a well-preserved collection of century-old kura, or warehouses, that still double as stores, workshops, and homes.

Join us on this very special Halloween weekend Omiyage tour to Tokyo.
In Tokyo before the malls and department stores there were shopping streets. These streets were lined with merchants and it was where local folk shopped. On these streets you would find green grocers, butchers, sake, and rice sellers as well as local crafts, restaurants and street vendors selling delicious inexpensive food. They anchored the neighborhood and sort of made for lively city life in old school Tokyo.
This tradition continues today, while on a smaller scale, it is still the way of life for many Tokyoites.
But, only the beginning as we are in peak foliage season and as such we have included visits to Tokyo’s top viewing spots, Meiji Shrine, Meiji Jingu Gaien, Koishikawa Korakuen Garden, Imperial East Garden & Naritasan Park.
There’s more, the Shibuya Blue Grotto Illumination with its 400,00 blue LED lights reflecting brightly off the water’s surface. Once here, you will most definitely be in the Christmas holiday spirit.

We have also included visits to the Susukino Ice Sculptures, Asahikawa Snow Festival, and the Lake Shikotsu Ice Festival.
And yet there is more, much more, 2 onsen stays, a day visiting the historic harbor city of Otaru, 2 sake brewery visits, Sunagawa Highway Oasis for the very best of Hokkaido’s omiyage shopping under one roof, the Usuzan Ropeway, and the Shinkansen to Tokyo.

Come, join us for the 15th annual Niigata Sake no Jin, or “Battle of Sake” attended by approximately 100 sake producers from across the Niigata Prefecture. This region is well known for its high-quality rice and rice wine.
Little visited and often overlooked, Niigata is a beautiful remote region with fabulous sights, great food, and excellent countryside landscapes -deserving much more attention than it gets. 200 miles northwest from Tokyo, the Niigata-Sado Island region offers a very different experience to the hustle and bustle of the Tokaido seaboard.
Not so quick, as we have also included 2 onsen stays and Nagano to visit the Jigokudani Monkey Park for the unique experience of seeing wild monkeys bathing in a natural hot spring.
Yet, there is more, 3 nights in Tokyo so that you can experience that “big city” feel and do all your omiyage shopping. We’ll be visiting Tsukiji, Ameyoko Shopping Street, Asakusa, Suzamo Jizo Shopping Street on fair day, a free day, and a visit to Shinjuku Gyoen Park to view the approximately 300 plum trees in bloom plus much, much more.

Join us on this fun filled Kanto Spring Break Odyssey Tour as we travel to Japan’s Kanto region. Tokyo, a city that prides itself on constant renewal and reinvention; it seriously never gets old. It has everything you can ask of a city, and has it in spades: a rich, cosmopolitan dining scene, more cafes, and bars than you could visit in a lifetime, fantastic public transport, and grassy parks – plus it’s clean and safe. Really, what’s not to love?
Yet, this is just the beginning as we have included a day trip to Kamakura, The Old Capital in the East and home to the Great Buddha, one day each at Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disney Sea.
In Tokyo, it’s the very best of Tokyo’s sights including Ueno, Tsukiji Market, Asakusa, Meiji Shrine, Harajuku, the Samurai Museum and CUP NOODLES Museum in Yokohama, to name a few. We also didn’t forget a full day at leisure so that you can sightsee on your own or shop til you drop at the Sunshine City Mall and area around the Ikebukuro Station.
