Southern Japan Luxury Tours & Trips
Imagine starting beneath the white walls of Himeji Castle, wandering the grounds before catching a train west. In Hiroshima, you might try okonomiyaki at a small street stall, then take the ferry to Miyajima to walk past the torii gate and shrine paths. Kyoto slows things down with temple visits and evening strolls through the geisha districts, and by the time you reach Tokyo, the neon streets and late-night ramen spots feel like a different world.
