Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto & Hiroshima)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Japan is an East Asian archipelago nation renowned for its seamless blend of ancient tradition and cutting-edge modernity. Tokyo, the capital, is one of the world's most dynamic megacities — famous for its neighbourhoods like Shibuya and Shinjuku, world-class food scene, and vibrant pop culture. Kyoto serves as the cultural heart of the country, home to over 1,600 Buddhist temples, Shinto shrines, geisha districts, and some of Japan's most celebrated gardens. Hiroshima, rebuilt after 1945, draws visitors to its powerful Peace Memorial Park and Museum, while also offering access to the scenic island of Miyajima and its iconic floating torii gate. Travellers come for the history, cuisine, street culture, cherry blossoms, and the sheer contrast between its serene and electric sides.

Self-Launched Tokyo, Kyoto & Hiroshima City Stays

A self-launched 9-day version of Globus's "Independent Tokyo, Kyoto & Hiroshima City Stays" — same three cities and headline sights, but booked yourself: hostel/budget hotel beds instead of tour hotels, self-guided walking routes and public transport instead of private guides, and shinkansen tickets bought à la carte. Expect to pay roughly a third of the packaged price while keeping nearly all the content of the original itinerary, with room to add a Mount Fuji or Nara day trip. All figures are approximate per-person estimates in GBP.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto & Hiroshima) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
