What people love about Japan Tours for Young Adults
- Japan Adventure 13 Day
This tour was everything I could have wanted, and more! From the jaw-dropping Mount Fuji to the futuristic lights of Tokyo, this tour blew my mind. The range of activities - including an overnight monastery stay, a Samurai class and Karaoke in the heart of Osaka - immersed me into the fascinating culture of this amazing country From the second I arrived in Tokyo, my guides made sure I was comfortable, happy and informed in a country where English isn't widely spoken. Thank you INTRO travel for so many amazing memories that will last a lifetime!

What our customers ask about Japan Tours for Young Adults
What's a typical day like on young adult tours in Japan?
Each day combines guided activities with plenty of independent time. Groups spend mornings exploring major sights then get 2-3 free days throughout the trip.

A TourRadar traveler shared: "The perfect mix of organized activities and free time to explore with new friends from the group."
What are the must-visit places for young travelers in Japan?
Young travelers often focus on Tokyo's energetic Shibuya and Harajuku neighborhoods along with Kyoto's temples including the iconic Fushimi Inari Shrine. Other key stops include Osaka's food-focused Dotonbori district and Hakone for Mt. Fuji views. Most tours include stays at centrally located hotels like the Holiday Inn Express Osaka City Centre. Cultural activities range from sushi-making to karaoke. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "From partying in Tokyo to walking down stone paths passing Geishas in Kyoto's Gion district this was an immersive adventure showing the best of Japan."
