✈️UK to Tokyo (4 nights): As you step off your flight from the UK and set foot in Tokyo, you’ll feel immediately captivated by the intriguing blend of ancient traditions and cutting-edge innovation this city has to offer. Some of the main attractions include the historic Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa and the world-famous Shibuya Crossing, where pedestrians crisscross in all directions. There are a huge range of culinary wonders on offer throughout the city, from the tiny izakayas to world-renowned sushi restaurants. If you have time, head to Tokyo Disneyland or indulge in a tranquil tea ceremony in one of the many traditional tea houses.
🚆Tokyo to Shizuoka (2 nights): After your stay in Tokyo, it’s time to escape the hustle and bustle of the capital and spend a couple of nights in the coastal city of Shizuoka. Catching the bullet train out of Tokyo, you’ll find yourself between the iconic Mount Fuji and the stunning Suruga Bay, with a breath-taking backdrop of beautiful landscapes surrounding you. Some of the must-see sights in Shizuoka include exploring the tea plantations, embarking on the walking trails that lead you to the base of Mount Fuji and visiting the temples and shrines, such as the Shizuoka Sengen Shrine. As a coastal city, the fresh seafood here is wonderful, so make sure you try some of the locally caught fish.
🚆Shizuoka to Osaka (2 nights): Jumping back on the bullet train, your next stop is Osaka, Japan’s third-largest city and a bustling urban hub that is known for its stunning cuisine. Try the street food including takoyaki (octopus balls) and okonomiyaki (savoury pancakes). Don’t miss a visit to Osaka Castle, a beautiful historic structure surrounded by lush gardens and the neon lights of Dotonbori famed its food and its energetic nightlife.
🚆Osaka to Hiroshima (2 nights): Hiroshima is a city forever etched in history following the devastating atomic bombing in 1945. You’ll journey here via the efficient bullet train. The main highlight of the city is the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, where you can pay your respects to the tragic events of August 1945. Within the park, wander around the Peace Memorial Museum and make sure you visit the Atomic Bomb Dome. Elsewhere in the city make sure you take in the Hiroshima Castle and the peaceful Shukkeien Garden with its landscaped lawns, teahouses and central pond.
🚆Hiroshima to Okinawa (beach) (4 nights): For the final leg of your journey, you’ll fly to the tropical paradise of Okinawa for some beachside downtime. The region is home to numerous pristine beaches both on the mainland and on the nearby islands, each offering something a little different. One of the most popular spots is Onna Village, located on the western coast of Okinawa Island, and known for its picturesque beaches and beachfront luxury resorts. Or you could head to the stunning Kouri island, known for its crystal-clear waters and its heart-shaped rock formation. Or head to Nishihama Beach on Hateruma Island, part of the Yaeyama Islands with its incredibly fine white sand and turquoise waters.
✈️Okinawa to UK: All good things must come to an end, and on your final day, we’ll take you to the airport for your return flight home to the UK.

Leanne was a delight to work with, proactively suggesting options, whilst remembering they had to be practical. What I appreciated most was how responsive and efficient Leanne was. Everything was handled promptly. Even though we haven’t taken the trip yet, I already feel confident that things will run smoothly thanks to the excellent groundwork that Leanne put in place.

I’ve now lost count of the trips I’ve booked with Gavin at e-shores and how he always manages to know exactly what we like and gets a great price - always the same or less than I research myself. Our latest was Greek island hopping to Mykonos, Paros, Naxos and Santorini and the hotels Gavin booked were all outstanding and the typically small, boutique hotels with less crowds. We went out of season (1st - 13th Sept) and everything went smoothly from the airport transfers, the welcome we had at each hotel and the beauty of each island having its own magic. Looking forward to the next trip already booked through Gavin in November! Thank you everyone-shores - the Napiers!

Claire Smith offered invaluable support in arranging our travel by air to Portugal pluse trains around the country, offering a choice of three hotels in every stop. She expanded our initial thoughts of Lisbon and Porto to include fantastic destinations that we would not have thought of - Guimaraes, Aveiro and Sintra. And she suggested tours we might enjoy. She listened. She selected hotels on the basis of what we told her we would like, from the feel of them to their location and the facilities they had. She was on the end of the phone when I needed her and made me feel there would be help at the end of the phone in an emergency abroad. We're looking forward to our getaway, secure in the knowledge it has been tailor maide to our requirements.

As always, fantastic service from Rob at eShores. He responded quickly to any requests and provided excellent support throughout the booking process. This is the second trip we’ve booked with him, and we’ve even recommended him to family members who are now also booking their holidays with Rob. Highly recommended

Our travel consultant, whom we have worked with for a few trips now, was given a wide ranging, complex and extensive overseas tour itinerary to quote for my wife and I. Not only did she return the quote within a matter of days but it was an amazing price and the hotels of our choice were mainly booked. The administration backed up the agreed quote with all relevant documents and we paid the deposit. All was done with the utmost efficiency, accuracy and speed. Wiil be back!!
