Itinerary

Arrive in Tokyo
Tokyo Haneda or Narita airport to your hotel in central Tokyo
- Welcome dinner
- Stay in Tokyo
- Drive about 1 h
Fly into Tokyo Haneda (HND) or Narita (NRT). A driver meets you in the arrivals hall and takes you to the hotel: about 30 to 45 minutes from Haneda, about 90 minutes from Narita. Our Tokyo hotel is central and within about 5 minutes' walk of a metro or JR station, so the city starts at the front door.
Evening
Plan to land by about 3 pm to make the evening meeting; the exact time comes with your final itinerary. At about 6 pm your See Sight Tours guide meets the group in the lobby for a short briefing: how the trains work, how your suitcase is forwarded to Kyoto on day 3, what to pack in an overnight bag for the ryokan, and how the week is paced. Each guest gets a loaded IC card for the metro. Then we walk to a neighbourhood izakaya for a welcome dinner of small plates to share, the easiest introduction to Japanese food there is.
Included
- Pick-up at Tokyo Haneda (HND) or Narita (NRT)
- Welcome briefing with your guide
- IC transit card for the Tokyo metro
- Welcome dinner at an izakaya
Free time: Free until the evening briefing
Activity: From Narita the transfer is about 70 km and 90 minutes.
Old and new Tokyo
Asakusa and Senso-ji, then Meiji Jingu, Harajuku and Shibuya
- Breakfast
- Stay in Tokyo
- By train

We start at 7 am in Asakusa, at Senso-ji, Tokyo's oldest temple.
Morning
The grounds never close and the main hall opens at 6 or 6:30 am, so at this hour the great Kaminarimon gate and the Nakamise shopping street belong to shopkeepers raising their shutters and locals saying morning prayers, not the crowds that pour in from ten. After a coffee in the backstreets, the metro takes us across the city to Meiji Jingu, the shrine to Emperor Meiji, reached on a wide gravel path through a forest planted a century ago.
Afternoon
From there it is a short walk into Harajuku for lunch on your own (your guide has a list) and down to Shibuya and its scramble crossing. The middle of the afternoon is free to rest at the hotel.
Evening
At sunset we go up to Shibuya Sky, the open-air rooftop about 230 m above the crossing, to watch the city light up; on clear winter days Mount Fuji shows on the horizon.
Included
- Senso-ji, the Kaminarimon gate and Nakamise street at 7 am with your guide
- Meiji Jingu and its forest approach
- Harajuku and the Shibuya scramble crossing on foot
- Shibuya Sky at sunset (timed entry booked for you)
Easier option: Skip the walk from Harajuku to Shibuya and take the metro one stop, or rest at the hotel and meet the group at Shibuya Sky.
Free time: Lunch on your own in Harajuku; mid-afternoon free; evening free after Shibuya Sky
Activity: About 10 km on foot across the day, with a midday break. Roughly an hour at Senso-ji, an hour at Meiji Jingu and an hour on Shibuya Sky.
Tsukiji, a shogun's garden and a free afternoon
Tsukiji Outer Market and Hama-rikyu garden, then Tokyo on your own
- Breakfast and lunch
- Stay in Tokyo
- By train
Morning
A food morning. We take the metro to the Tsukiji Outer Market, the lanes of fishmongers, knife makers, pickle sellers and tiny counters that stayed behind when the wholesale fish market moved to Toyosu in 2018.
Afternoon
Your guide leads a tasting walk while the stalls are busiest with local cooks: rolled omelette hot off the pan, grilled scallops, fresh fruit, and then a seat at a sushi counter for lunch. A short walk away, Hama-rikyu is a former shogun's garden on Tokyo Bay, with a teahouse on an island in a tidal pond, where we stop for a bowl of matcha and a seasonal sweet. The afternoon is free: go back to Asakusa, browse Ginza, see teamLab Planets (book ahead) or rest.
Evening
Before dinner, leave your suitcase at the hotel front desk with the forwarding slip your guide prepares; it travels to Kyoto by courier and waits for you there. Pack an overnight bag for Hakone. Dinner is your choice.
Included
- Tasting walk in the Tsukiji Outer Market with your guide
- Sushi counter lunch in Tsukiji
- Hama-rikyu garden with matcha and a sweet at the teahouse
- Suitcase forwarding from your Tokyo hotel to your Kyoto hotel
Optional experiences
- teamLab Planets in Toyosu (book ahead, on your own)
Free time: Afternoon and evening free
Activity: About 2 hours in the Tsukiji Outer Market and an hour at Hama-rikyu. Many Tsukiji shops close on Sundays, public holidays and some Wednesdays, so this day is scheduled around them.
The Hakone loop and a ryokan night
Tokyo to Odawara by Shinkansen, then the Hakone Tozan Railway, cable car, ropeway and Lake Ashi cruise
- Breakfast, lunch and dinner
- Stay in Hakone
- By train

Morning
We leave Tokyo mid-morning with only an overnight bag, which is what makes today easy. The Tokaido Shinkansen reaches Odawara in about 35 minutes, and from there we ride the Hakone loop on the Hakone Free Pass. The Hakone Tozan Railway climbs the mountain on switchbacks to Gora, about an hour from Odawara with a change at Hakone-Yumoto, a short cable car rises to Sounzan, and the Hakone Ropeway swings over Owakudani, a volcanic valley of steam vents and yellow sulphur.
Afternoon
We stop there for lunch and a black egg boiled in the hot springs. If a volcanic alert closes the ropeway, a bus covers the same ground. From Togendai a sightseeing boat crosses Lake Ashi to Moto-Hakone, with Mount Fuji over the far shore on clear days.
Evening
By late afternoon we are at the ryokan on the Lake Ashi side of Hakone: change into a yukata, soak in the onsen and sit down to a kaiseki dinner, many small seasonal courses brought one after another.
Included
- Tokaido Shinkansen from Tokyo to Odawara
- Hakone Free Pass: Hakone Tozan Railway, cable car, Hakone Ropeway and the Lake Ashi cruise
- Owakudani and lunch at the top
- Night in a traditional ryokan with onsen
- Kaiseki dinner at the ryokan
Free time: Late afternoon and evening at the ryokan
Activity: Mostly seated on trains, the ropeway and the boat, with short walks between them. About an hour at Owakudani, with lunch.
Hakone Shrine early, then the bullet train to Kyoto
Hakone to Moto-Hakone and Odawara, then the Shinkansen to Kyoto
- Breakfast and lunch
- Stay in Kyoto
- Drive about 1 h

Morning
Wake early for a soak while the onsen is quiet, then a Japanese breakfast at the ryokan. We leave at about 8 am and reach the lakeshore at Moto-Hakone by about 8:30, before the queue builds at Hakone Shrine's red torii, which stands in the waters of Lake Ashi. We climb the cedar-lined steps to the shrine, then walk to Onshi-Hakone Park, the grounds of a former imperial villa on a headland, for the widest view across the lake towards Fuji. Late in the morning our vehicle takes us down to Odawara station, about 40 minutes, for the Shinkansen to Kyoto. The ride takes two to three hours depending on the service: a Hikari that stops at Odawara where the timetable allows, otherwise a Kodama, sometimes with a change to a faster train at Nagoya.
Afternoon
Lunch is a bento on board. We reach Kyoto between about 2 and 3 pm, and your suitcase is already at the hotel.
Evening
After check-in and a rest, we walk into Gion at dusk: Hanamikoji street, the willow-lined Shirakawa canal, Yasaka Shrine as its lanterns are lit, and Pontocho alley above the Kamo River. Dinner is on your own.
Included
- Hakone Shrine and its lakeside torii by about 8:30 am
- Onshi-Hakone Park
- Shinkansen from Odawara to Kyoto, with a bento lunch on board
- Gion, Shirakawa, Yasaka Shrine and Pontocho at dusk with your guide
Easier option: Stay at the ryokan for a slower morning and join the group at Odawara station.
Free time: Evening free in Kyoto
Activity: About 45 minutes at Hakone Shrine, 30 minutes in Onshi-Hakone Park and 2 hours in Gion. In Gion, some private lanes ban photography; your guide shows where it is welcome.
Fushimi Inari at 7 am and a Kyoto cooking class
Fushimi Inari Taisha, then Nishiki Market and a cooking class in central Kyoto
- Breakfast and lunch
- Stay in Kyoto
- Drive about 30 min
An early start for Kyoto's most crowded sight.
Evening
We are at Fushimi Inari Taisha by 7 am, when the shrine, open day and night and free to enter, is quiet and the thousands of vermilion torii gates that climb Mount Inari stand in soft morning light. We walk up through the tunnels of gates to the Yotsutsuji crossroads, about 45 minutes uphill on steps, for the view over southern Kyoto, and come down by a quieter path as the tour groups arrive. Back in the centre by mid-morning, we walk the length of Nishiki Market, a narrow covered street of stalls selling pickles, tofu, fish and knives to Kyoto's cooks. Then the hands-on part of the day: a cooking class with a Kyoto home cook, where we make dashi from scratch, a few obanzai home-style dishes and a seasonal rice dish, and eat what we have made for lunch. The afternoon and evening are free: the Philosopher's Path, Nanzen-ji, or a long rest.
Included
- Fushimi Inari Taisha at 7 am with your guide, up to the Yotsutsuji crossroads
- Nishiki Market walk
- Cooking class with a Kyoto home cook, with the lunch you make
Easier option: Walk only the first tunnels of gates, about 15 minutes, and wait with a coffee at the foot of the shrine.
More active option: Carry on from Yotsutsuji around the summit loop of Mount Inari, about another hour, with your guide.
Free time: Afternoon and evening free
Activity: Breakfast is early today, from about 6:15 am, and we leave at about 6:40. About 2 hours at Fushimi Inari, 45 minutes in Nishiki Market and about 3 hours for the cooking class and lunch.
Nara, then Kiyomizu-dera late in the day
Kyoto to Nara and back by train, then Kiyomizu-dera and Higashiyama
- Breakfast and lunch
- Stay in Kyoto
- By train
After yesterday's early start, a later one. Nara was Japan's capital in the 8th century, before Kyoto, and its temples are older and bigger.
Morning
We leave the hotel at about 8:15 for the Kintetsu limited express, about 35 minutes, and walk through Nara Park to reach Todai-ji at about 9:30, before the late-morning crowds. Inside the vast wooden hall sits the bronze Great Buddha, about 15 metres tall. The deer of Nara Park, around a thousand of them, wander between the temples and bow for rice crackers.
Afternoon
We walk on to Kasuga Taisha, its paths lined with stone lanterns, then sit down to lunch in Naramachi, the old merchant quarter. We are back in Kyoto by about 2:30 pm, with two hours to rest at the hotel. Then we finish at Kiyomizu-dera in the late afternoon, after the coaches have gone: its wooden stage looks out over the city from the Higashiyama hills, and the stone lanes of Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka lead back down.
Evening
The evening is free.
Included
- Kintetsu limited express from Kyoto to Nara and back
- Todai-ji and the Great Buddha Hall
- Nara Park and Kasuga Taisha with your guide
- Sit-down lunch in Naramachi
- Kiyomizu-dera, Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka in the late afternoon
Easier option: Skip Kiyomizu-dera and keep the late afternoon and evening free.
Free time: Two hours to rest at the hotel in the afternoon; evening free
Activity: The longest day on foot, about 9 to 10 km, broken by lunch and the afternoon rest. About an hour at Todai-ji, 90 minutes in Nara Park and Kasuga Taisha, and 90 minutes at Kiyomizu-dera, with stone steps.
Kinkaku-ji, a tea ceremony, then Osaka
Kinkaku-ji and a tea ceremony in Kyoto, then by road to Osaka and Dotonbori
- Breakfast and dinner
- Stay in Osaka
- Drive about 1 h
Morning
A slower last morning in Kyoto. We are at Kinkaku-ji, the Golden Pavilion, when the gates open at 9 am, so the view across the Mirror Pond is clear before the crowds build. Then a tea ceremony in a traditional tea room, where the host shows you how to whisk your own bowl of matcha, followed by a short class making wagashi, the seasonal sweets served with tea.
Afternoon
Lunch is on your own near the hotel. Early in the afternoon our vehicle takes the group and the suitcases to Osaka, about an hour by road, and we check in to a hotel near Namba with time to rest.
Evening
In the evening, the farewell: a street-food walk through Dotonbori under the neon and the Glico running man sign, past the moss-covered statue in Hozenji Yokocho, tasting takoyaki, kushikatsu and okonomiyaki as we go, and ending around one table for a last dinner together.
Included
- Kinkaku-ji at opening with your guide
- Tea ceremony and a wagashi class
- Transfer to Osaka with your suitcases
- Dotonbori and Hozenji Yokocho street-food walk
- Farewell dinner
Free time: Lunch on your own; a free hour in Osaka before the evening walk
Activity: About 45 minutes at Kinkaku-ji, 90 minutes for the tea ceremony and wagashi class, and about 2 hours on the Dotonbori walk and dinner.
A free morning in Osaka and home
Osaka to Kansai International Airport
- Breakfast
- Drive about 1 h
Morning
The morning is yours. Osaka Castle, rebuilt in 1931 on its original stone walls and now a museum, is about 20 minutes away by metro, and Kuromon Market is a short walk from Namba for a last snack of fresh fruit or grilled seafood. Your guide will point you in the right direction or walk with anyone who wants company. Check-out is usually at 11 am, and the hotel holds your bags. Our vehicle then takes you to Kansai International Airport (KIX), about an hour by road and across the bridge onto the airport island, timed to your flight. For an international flight, book one leaving after about 2 pm to keep the free morning; if you fly earlier, we leave earlier. If you are flying from Osaka Itami (ITM), staying on in Osaka or travelling on by train, tell us when you book and we arrange the drop-off to match. Your guide says goodbye at the hotel.
Included
- Drop-off at Kansai International Airport (KIX)
Optional experiences
- Osaka Castle (on your own)
Free time: Morning free
Activity: Book an international flight leaving after about 2 pm to keep the free morning.

Wildlife and weather: Spring and autumn are mild and mostly dry. Cherry blossom (late March to early April) and Kyoto's autumn colour (mid-November to early December) bring crowds and higher hotel prices. The rainy season runs from about early June to mid-July, summer is hot and humid, and typhoons can disrupt trains from August to October. Mount Fuji is often hidden in cloud, most of all from late spring through summer.

Questions
Prices in these answers apply from Dec 2, 2026. Black Friday offer: 5% off the small-group price for requests received by Dec 1, 2026. From CAD 4,590 per person. From Dec 2, 2026: from CAD 4,830.
What does the price include?
Eight nights in central hotels and a Hakone ryokan, all breakfasts, 5 lunches and 3 dinners, airport transfers at both ends, reserved bullet train seats, the Hakone Free Pass, suitcase forwarding from Tokyo to Kyoto, a See Sight Tours guide throughout, and every visit in the day plan, including Shibuya Sky, the cooking class and the tea ceremony.
How big is the group?
The small-group trip runs with 7 to 12 guests. That is small enough to sit together at one sushi counter or izakaya table, move quickly through stations, and hear the guide in a busy shrine.
Who leads the trip?
A See Sight Tours guide travels with the group from the first evening in Tokyo to the farewell dinner in Osaka, handling trains, tickets and timings. Where a site requires its own local guide or host, as at the tea ceremony and the cooking class, they join for that part. We introduce your guide before you travel.
How fit do I need to be for this Japan tour?
Moderately fit. Expect 4 to 6 hours on your feet most days, about 8 to 12 km, with stairs in stations and at shrines. The steepest part is about 45 minutes uphill at Fushimi Inari, and you can stop at the first gates instead. Your suitcase is forwarded, so you never haul it up station stairs.
I am travelling solo. Is there a single supplement?
Yes, a room of your own is from CAD 975 more, about 20 percent of the trip price, shown before you book. Solo travellers are welcome on every departure. If you would rather share a room, ask us when you book and we will tell you whether a roommate match is possible on your date.
When is the best time to visit Japan on this trip?
Late March to May and October to early December, when days are mild and mostly dry. Cherry blossom in early April and Kyoto's autumn colour from mid-November are beautiful but crowded and pricier. We avoid the early summer rainy season, the August heat and Golden Week at the start of May.
Will we see Mount Fuji?
Possibly, but no one can promise it. Fuji is often hidden in cloud, most of all from late spring through summer, and clearest on cold mornings from late autumn to early spring. We look for it from the Hakone Ropeway, the Lake Ashi cruise and Onshi-Hakone Park, and from Shibuya Sky on clear days.
Do I have to carry my suitcase on the bullet train?
No. On the evening of day 3 your suitcase goes by courier from the Tokyo hotel to the Kyoto hotel, and it is waiting when you arrive on day 5. You take a small overnight bag to the Hakone ryokan. From Kyoto to Osaka your suitcase rides in our vehicle.
How does booking work?
Prices are per person sharing a room, with taxes included: the small group starts from CAD 4,830 and the private trip from CAD 8,695. Choose your start date and send a request to book. We confirm your place within 24 hours, and no payment is taken until we have confirmed.
Can we travel privately or on our own dates?
Yes. The private version is for your party only, on a date you choose, with your own guide and the same hotels and experiences. If you would rather travel independently on your own dates, without a guide, send us an inquiry from the dates section and we will quote the hotels, trains and forwarding separately.
Do I need a visa for Japan?
Citizens of Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and most European countries can visit Japan visa-free for short tourist stays. Rules differ by passport and can change, so check before you book. Fill in Visit Japan Web before you fly to speed up immigration and customs on arrival.
How is this different from your 13-day Japan trip?
This is the short first-timer route: Tokyo, Hakone, Kyoto with Nara, and Osaka in 9 days, travelling by bullet train. Our 13-day Japan trip goes from Tokyo through the Japanese Alps, with Kamikochi, Takayama, Shirakawa-go and Kanazawa, before four nights in Kyoto.
