Japan Tours

Why travel to Japan with Titan

For a destination with such variety, only a wide selection of dates and tours will suffice. Our Japan holidays depart throughout the year. In the spring, wander the cherry blossom-lined boulevards. In the autumn, photograph the blaze of orange and red leaves.

When the snow falls in winter, we’ll take you north to Hakodate and Sapporo, where the Japanese macaques (snow monkeys) warm up in the hot springs and you can visit the famed Sapporo Snow Festival. We also run a dedicated solo Japan tour, with departures specifically for solo travellers. This means those travelling alone can still enjoy the tour with like-minded travellers and don’t need to worry about single supplements or surcharges.

Plus with our award-winning VIP door-to-door travel service, you can switch on holiday mode from the get-go. You’ll be whisked off to the airport from your very front door (and they’ll drop you home again) no matter where you live in the UK.

See Japan with Titan Travel

Tokyo

On each of our Japanese tours, our adventure starts in Tokyo. As well as towering skyscrapers and neon-lit streets, there’s history in abundance. The Tokyo National Museum is packed full of Japanese art and cultural artefacts. Take to the neo-futuristic Skytree for stunning views of the city skyline from the country’s second tallest structure.

Kyoto

The ancient capital of Japan, Kyoto has a cultural pedigree to rival Tokyo. Spend half a day touring Nijo Castle, the former home of the Tokugawa shoguns. Or you could get spiritual and explore some of the many Buddhist temples in the city. Make sure to see the vibrant shrines and tranquil gardens, too. Learn a thing or two about traditional Japanese dress at Nishijin Textile Centre, where kimonos and other textiles are produced.

Hiroshima

Visit the Peace Memorial Park and the symbolic Flame of Peace to see touching tributes to the ongoing hope for worldwide unity. The Atomic Bomb Museum offers details of the human cost, and cements a strong anti-nuclear message. A trip to Hiroshima Bay’s Miyajima Island is one of Japan’s most scenic spots, complete with the UNESCO-listed Itsukushima Shinto Shrine. Look out for the iconic orange gate that appears to float at high tide.

Mount Fuji

Revered in Japan’s earliest literature from well over 1,000 years ago, Mount Fuji has to be seen in person for its full impact. Watch it as we whizz past on the bullet train and its iconic stature dominates the landscape, but introduce yourself up close on a tour and you’ll find a terrain that presents not only a challenging climb, but a rewarding view.

Hakodate

A port city on the northern island of Hokkaido, Hakodate was one of the first to open to international trade after the Kanagawa Treaty of 1854. Its charm is vividly apparent in the western-influenced architecture and churches of the Motomachi district. Visit the star-shaped Fort Goryokaku, too, if you like unusual designs. The 1855 fortification was purposely designed to give greater cannon coverage than an older Japanese fortress could.
