Image 1 of 12
This four-day regional programme is suited to agencies looking for a more curated Japan product beyond the standard Golden Route while keeping operations smooth. It combines shinkansen access from Tokyo, Kanazawa market and craft experiences, a traditional onsen ryokan stay, Fukui's dramatic coast, tea culture, Zen atmosphere, and a museum stop before returning to Tokyo. The structure works well for private families, premium FITs, and small special-interest departures that value comfort, culture, and managed transfers.
