Japan Small Group Tours

Book one of our Deluxe Plus Small Group Tours for an unforgettable tour of Japan that offers an immersive experience with Japanese history, local culture, cuisine, top must-sees, and rich natural beauty.


Our Japan Small Group Tours consist of our Deluxe Plus Small Group Tours. All of our small small group tours showcase Japan’s culture, traditions, natural beauty, and cuisine in different ways, and we’re confident you can find the perfect Japan tour for you and your travel group. These tours have a maximum group size of 12 or 24 depending on the tours, with transport mainly provided by air-conditioned private coach, to give our guests a smooth and comfortable journey.

Our Small Group tours explore the whole of Japan, from Hokkaido down to Kyushu, with tours that take full advantage of seasonal delights to join tours that include popular annual festivals, cherry blossoms, and autumn leaves. Browse our Discover Japan Small Group Tours to find itineraries that feature historic, distinguished, beautiful and thrilling seasonal and cultural festivals - The Tokyo Sanja Festival, the Osaka Tenjin Festival, the Kyoto Jidai Festival, the Sendai Aoba Festival, the Karatsu Kunchi Festival, and the Hokkaido Winter Festivals. Our Small Group Tours of Japan include the top places on travelers’ must-see lists: modern Tokyo, traditional Kyoto, ancient Nara, breathtaking Hakone, iconic Mount Fuji, and eccentric Osaka, but depending on the tour you take, there are many other fascinating destinations that might pique your interest, each with their own distinct appeal. Step back in time to the Edo period as you walk the Old Nakasendo Road through the stunning Kiso Valley, or spend time up in Yudanaka with the adorable Snow Monkeys of Jigokudani. Some tours focus on the delights and eccentricities of specific regions, such as our tours through Hokkaido’s natural beauty, experiencing the local culture of Tohoku or Kyushu. Some tours offer an in-depth look at an aspect of Japanese culture, such as art and architecture, pottery, and gardens.

Each of our Japan Small Group Tours are designed for the most immersive and culturally enriching experiences, ranging from classes in traditional Japanese arts and cooking to visiting local markets and cultural events. While on our yours, you will, depending on the itinerary, find yourself making sushi in Tokyo under the guidance of an expert, feeding wild deer across from Todaiji Temple in Nara, riding in a large washtub off the coast of Sado Island, hiking over sacred Mount Haguro with Yamabushi “mountain monks”, trekking across the stunning Shiretoko Peninsula in snowshoes, or tasting your way through Dotonbori on a Street Food Tour.

Take one of our seasonal Japan Small Group Tours to enjoy the beauties of each season, which are a major part of the country's charm. The spring cherry blossoms are a wonder to behold, reimagining many parks and gardens into fantasy dreamscapes of pastel pink petals. The autumn leaves, while not as famous as the cherry blossoms, bring a vibrant splash of color to groves of maple, zelkova, and ginkgo trees. Browse our various itineraries to find the best Japan vacation for you!
