دربارهٔ این سفر
This is a sample tour. Edit it to see how the pieces fit together, then delete it before you launch.
We start in Tokyo, where the point is not to see everything — it is to pick one neighbourhood a day and actually be in it. Then the train west, a night in the Alps where the valley goes quiet after four, and finally Kyoto, arriving late enough in the trip that its stillness lands the way it should.
Groups stay under twelve. Your guide speaks English and Japanese, and travels with you the whole way.

پرسشها
How fit do I need to be?
If you can walk 8km on flat ground without dreading it, you are fine. The one hill day is optional and there is a bus.
Is this suitable for a first trip to Japan?
It is designed for one. You get the two cities everyone comes for, plus the countryside most first-timers miss because they do not know it is reachable.
What about dietary requirements?
Tell us when you enquire. Vegetarian is straightforward. Halal and coeliac need more notice but we arrange both regularly.
When do I pay?
Nothing at enquiry. A deposit holds your place once we have agreed the dates, and the balance is due sixty days before departure.
