Japan Luxury Small Group Tours

Join a Luxury Small Group Tour for a journey to some of Japan's top destinations, with quality hotels and transportation, plus rare immersive experiences unlike those you'll find on other tours.


Experience Japan in luxury on one of AJT’s Japan Luxury Small Group Tours. Japan is one of the most incredible countries on earth; a fascinating mix of traditional and modern culture, where you can see iconic castles and shrines and small towns in the countryside after having just taken the first class Shinkansen bullet train from a bustling futuristic metropolis. On our Signature: Essence of Japan Luxury Small Group Tours, you will be able to explore Japan’s most incredible destinations, with tour group sizes topped at 16 people. Browse the iconic landmarks, upscale neighborhoods, and fashionable shopping districts of Tokyo, behold beautiful Hakone and breathtaking Mount Fuji, discover Kyoto and Nara’s most important UNESCO World Heritage temples and gardens, travel out to the sleepy mountain village of Shirakawa-go to see its UNESCO World Heritage Site, stroll through Kanazawa’s breathtaking Kenrokuen Park, and explore Old Town Takayama, which still breathes with the classical atmosphere of the old Edo period. Our Signature: Classic Japan Tours add the Peace Park of Hiroshima, the Floating Gate of Miyajima Island, the modern art galleries of Naoshima, the Kurashiki Canals, and Himeji Castle.

A major part of the AJT Luxury Small Group Tours are special experiences more unique than what you would find on most regular tours. Ride a Rickshaw through the backstreets of Tokyo’s old Asakusa district, and join a sushi-making experience near Tsukiji Outer Market. Study Zen Meditation and Japanese Tea Ceremony at Kodaji Temple in Kyoto, try on a stylish traditional kimono, dine on Kyoto cuisine in the company of a Maiko (apprentice Geisha), and learn Japanese calligraphy and ikebana (flower arranging), in an old Kyoto townhouse. Take a tour of a brewery in Saijo and taste their premium sake, and dine on mouth-watering Wagyu beef in Kobe. Regarding special experiences, we have seasonal departures throughout most of the year, with itineraries during spring and autumn celebrating the two prettiest times of the year to travel Japan. Strolling through Japan’s most sought-after destinations when the cherry trees are glowing with pale pink blossoms or the maple trees are decked in bright leaves, covering the parks and gardens in pink petals or autumn colors, will make your luxury group tour to Japan feel that much more special. Select tours include the enchanting Takayama Spring or Autumn Festival, considered one of Japan’s most beautiful festivals. And these seasonal tours include some of the best locations in the country to view the wonders of each season.

Nothing says “luxury tour experience” like top-tier tour accommodations, and these luxury small group tours feature not only exquisite lodging in excellent Western hotels with fine dining options and access to local restaurants, but also elegant ryokans (old-fashioned Japanese inns). In addition, you will be transported to these destinations in comfort on board a private coach, although the tours often include a trip on a Shinkansen bullet train, so you can experience travel on this technological marvel. Your Japan luxury small group tours are assisted by one of our friendly English- speaking tour guides.
