Over the course of 12 days, you’ll navigate through vibrant Tokyo, the serene landscapes of Sapporo, the poignant history of Hiroshima, and the culinary delights of Osaka. Each city unfolds its unique charm, providing a mosaic of culture, history, and gastronomical wonders that define this beautiful nation.

Highlights of the Destination

  • Tokyo’s iconic skyline and historical temples, blending the ultramodern with the serene.
  • Sapporo's world-famous beer and the enchanting Sapporo Snow Festival with its giant ice sculptures.
  • Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park, a poignant reminder of resilience and hope.
  • Osaka's lively street food scene, crowned with the legendary takoyaki and okonomiyaki delicacies.

Travel Tips for Japan

  • Invest in a Japan Rail Pass for convenient travel between cities – it’s efficient and cost-effective.
  • Learn a few basic Japanese phrases; locals appreciate the effort and it enhances your experience.

I and my husband went for honeymoon to Japan in October 23. The whole trip was curated for us to every minute detail as we asked from Pranav. Their 24*7 support is prompt and we received every detail regarding our activities in a day advance. The whole process was hassle free. I would definitely recommend Pickyourtrail as they have something for everyones budget.

I recently booked a trip to Japan through Pickyourtrail (PYT), and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. The PYT team was outstanding in every aspect of the planning process, from managing pre-vacation checks to handling the visa booking process. Their support continued seamlessly during the trip with regular connects, even in Japan's timezone, which made me feel well-cared for throughout my journey. They were instrumental in managing my budget, offering practical advice to keep costs down without compromising on the quality of the experience. One of the highlights was their guidance on the visa processthey provided a comprehensive list of required documents and even shared essential templates, making what could have been a stressful process remarkably smooth. Moreover, the team suggested that I book my flight tickets independently, which significantly helped in reducing the overall trip cost. This thoughtful advice further emphasized their commitment to providing a budget-friendly and personalized travel experience. Overall, PYT delivered a fantastic service, and I highly recommend them for anyone looking to plan a trip with ease and confidence.
