✈️ UK – Tokyo (4 nights): Fly from the UK to Tokyo, where you’ll be met on arrival and transferred to your hotel in one of the city’s traditional neighbourhoods. Over the next four nights, immerse yourself in Japan’s captivating blend of ancient tradition and cutting-edge modernity. Enjoy a mix of guided tours and free time to explore at your own pace.
Visit the city’s oldest temple, Sensō-ji, cruise along the Sumida River, and wander through serene shrines and manicured gardens. Experience the iconic Shibuya Crossing, shop in stylish districts, and discover Tokyo’s famous street food and world-class restaurants. From peaceful temples to neon skylines, Tokyo promises a feast for all the senses.
🚝 Tokyo – Hakone (1 night): Travel by train to Hakone, set within a stunning national park in the shadow of Mount Fuji. Take a scenic cruise across Lake Ashinoko, admire the mountain views and relax in an onsen (hot spring). You’ll spend the night in a traditional Japanese ryokan, where you can experience tatami mats, paper screens, and exquisite kaiseki cuisine, for a true taste of Japan’s hospitality.
🚝 Hakone – Kyoto (3 nights): Continue by rail to Kyoto, the City of Ten Thousand Shrines. Once Japan’s imperial capital, Kyoto is the heart of its cultural heritage. Visit its most iconic temples and shrines, take part in a traditional tea ceremony, and stroll through tranquil Zen gardens. Explore Nishiki Market, known as “Kyoto’s Kitchen” and wander through Gion, the historic geisha district where time seems to stand still.
🚝 Kyoto – Hiroshima (2 nights): Next, travel to Hiroshima, the City of Water, where you can reflect at the Peace Memorial Park and visit the Atomic Bomb Dome, one of the few structures that survived the 1945 blast. Enjoy panoramic views from Orizuru Tower and take a short trip to nearby Miyajima Island, home to the famous “floating” torii gate of Itsukushima Shrine.
🚝 Hiroshima – Osaka (1 night): From Hiroshima, continue to Osaka, Japan’s food capital and a lively, fun-loving counterpart to Tokyo. Visit Osaka Castle, enjoy a boat trip along the city’s waterways, and explore the neon-lit streets of Dōtonbori, where restaurants, street food stalls and entertainment line every corner.
🚝 Osaka – Takayama (2 nights): Head back east aboard the famous bullet train before switching lines to reach Takayama, set amid the scenic Japanese Alps. This beautifully preserved Edo-period town offers a glimpse into traditional Japan. Wander the old merchant streets, visit a historic government building from the samurai era, and take a sake brewery tour. Don’t miss the Hida Folk Village, which is an open-air museum showcasing life in Japan’s rural past.
🚝 Takayama – Tokyo (1 night): Return to Tokyo by train for one final night in the capital. Enjoy the city’s endless dining options, lively bars and karaoke joints, or pick up a few last-minute souvenirs before heading home.
✈️ Tokyo – UK: On your final day, you’ll be transferred to the airport for your flight back to the UK, marking the end of your unforgettable journey through Japan.

eShores have organised three holidays for us and we have just booked our fourth. I have found them to be efficient and helpful. When we had health issues when abroad they were very helpful, and when there was a mishap with a booking, they were proactive and transparent, and provided a fair resolution.
Fantastic service, its the second time booking with Michelle, she has been brilliant, if this next holiday lives up to the last one, it will be fabulous.
Excellent service, competitive prices, nothing to much trouble sorting out any extras required, the agent I dealt with, Kadie, was extremely helpful, professional & polite.

A wonderful company to do business with. No question or request is too much trouble. The holidays created are top notch. Support whilst away is excellent. Would highly recommend.
From my first conversation with Dave I immediately felt in safe, sensible hands. We have booked what will be a very different type of holiday and are confident that his recommendations and research will pay off
Approachable and professional

We were recommended Kadie by friends and has now been our holiday representative for the last 4 years travelling throughout Asia, she is always so helpful, friendly and available to answer queries. Everything always runs very smoothly. Thank you Kadie, we would always recommend you too
Asked for a specific itinerary for Sicily - Emma came up with one, plus all transfer options; we then did some changes and she put together exactly the holiday we wanted! Very easy and pleasant to talk to; very professional.
I always feel that eShores listen to what I want from my trip and put together a package that suits my needs. Anna has been charming to deal with. She put together a wonderful tour of Malaysia and Borneo for me and has just arranged a trip to Costa Rica for me which I am…
Book every time with Dave at eshores always excellent service, wouldn't go anywhere else
We haven't had the holiday yet but the booking process was excellent. Looking to see several of the smaller islands of Greece the suggested itinerary met our requirements exactly. Each location had an option of three different hotels but our in depth research of each island just confirmed that the suggested one was the best.…
Used Eshores earlier this year for a trip to Venice and Florence. Excellent holiday. All arrangements by Eshores were brilliant. Have recently booked another holiday with them. Again, easy to deal with. They take care to ensure everything arranged to your wishes.
Claire at eShores was friendly, professional and creative in setting up a multi-centre holiday over Christmas and New Year, including all international and inter-Caribbean flights. Nothing was too much trouble and our whims and wishes were all taken into account. Ongoing support is excellent. We cannot recommend eShores highly enough.
Good communication, prompt service, love the way the quote is laid out all details are included also with the option of upgrading your hotel. So far so good.
Very friends staff always available to answer my questions re availability and costs . Willing to research my requests and advise possibilities .
We have now used eShores probably 6 times and every time they have been so informative and helpful, thoroughly recommend
