More Details
Room Type Explained

Single Room

Single room types are rooms for single room occupants.
One person will be occupying the hotel room throughout the tour.

Twin Room

Twin room types are rooms set for two people who will occupy one room, but will have two separate beds.

Double Room

A double room is a room that has one bed for two people to share.

Triple Room

A triple room is one room where three people may share the same room. It has three separate beds.

Japanese Style Room

A Japanese-style room traditionally does not have a western-style bed, it is a tatami floor room with futon bedding. However, if you prefer a western-style bed, you may request one though we cannot guarantee it.

Please note: If you would like to request neighboring rooms next to your traveling companions, you and your traveling companions must have the same room types in order to be next to each other. For example, if you have requested a double room, but your traveling companions have requested a twin, or triple room, then neighboring rooms cannot be accommodated. However, if both you and your traveling companions match in room type, then neighboring rooms will likely be arranged for your convenience.

Japan is now more accessible than ever, with an itinerary and must-see destinations and barrier-free accommodations chosen specifically with those travelers who rely on a wheelchair in mind.

Japan has been constantly making it easier for visiting travelers navigating by wheelchair in recent years, with steps that include barrier-free hotel accommodations, "non-step" trains and buses, as well as more accessible public restrooms and elevators.

The itinerary first begins in Tokyo, with a couple days of sightseeing the top must-sees in the city including the Meiji Shrine, Asakusa Sensoji Temple, Tokyo Skytree, and Akihabara Electric Town. The tour continues to Kyoto, stopping on the way in Hakone and Mount Fuji to enjoy the idyllic landscape, with additional trips to the Itchiku Kubota Art Museum and the fascinating Miho Museum. In Kyoto you will explore this ancient city in all it's grandeur with visits to the Silver Pavilion and the Gion Geisha District, as well as immersive experiences such as the Nishijin Kimono Show and a Green Tea Ceremony. The tour includes a visit to nearby Nara city, where you will enjoy the company of the friendly Sika deer in Nara Park, along with a visit to magnificent Todaiji Temple.
