What Our Guests Have Said
FAQs About Our Luxury Japan Holidays
-
Our experts recommend visiting Japan during spring and autumn, more specifically early March to late May, and early October to early December.
Not only is this when the weather is best, with summer bringing typhoon season and the winter bringing frigid temps, but the landscape is also at its finest. Book a year in advance, and you can spend your spring in Japan chasing the iconic cherry blossoms, or visit for autumn to watch the landscape awash in vibrant hues of orange, red and yellow.

The best things to see and do in Japan when going on a luxury holiday is to see the cherry blossoms and autumn leaves.
These iconic sites have made Japan one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world for a reason, however, when it comes to building your luxury tour around those experiences is where our experts shine.
Make the trip your own with a sushi-making class at a Michelin-star restaurant, a private art tour of Kyoto or even a Bonsai masterclass. Whether you’re a foodie, artist or green thumb, we’ll find the thing best things to do for you.

For a Japan honeymoon, we recommend a blend of city sightseeing and local cultural immersion.
Start in Tokyo where you can indulge in the country's finest Michelin-star dining, then make your way to one of the many high-end ryokans we work with across the country. Think of a private spa retreat mixed with traditional local customs. Revel in your private onsen, or hot spring bath, and experience a delicious kaiseki dinner getting a true taste of Japanese culture.

Is this trip just with the immediate family, or is it a multigenerational trip with grandparents as well? Are you all early risers ready to pack in the day?
