Japan is an East Asian island nation renowned for its seamless blend of ancient tradition and cutting-edge modernity. Tokyo dazzles with its neon-lit neighborhoods, world-class food scene, and pop culture energy, while Kyoto preserves centuries of history through its thousands of temples, shrines, and geisha districts. Hakone offers dramatic views of Mount Fuji alongside hot spring ryokans and open-air sculpture parks, and Nara is famed for its friendly free-roaming deer and monumental Buddhist landmarks like Tōdai-ji. Travelers are drawn here for the depth of cultural experiences, exceptional cuisine, efficient rail travel, and the contrast between serene natural landscapes and buzzing urban life.

9-Day Japan Classic Self-Launched: Tokyo, Hakone & Mt. Fuji, Kyoto, Nara

A self-launched version of Intertrips' 9-day Tokyo–Mt. Fuji–Kyoto group tour, done independently using Japan's brilliant public transport. You'll cover the same highlights — Tsukiji and Sensoji in Tokyo, the Komagatake Ropeway and Lake Ashi views of Fuji in Hakone, Fushimi Inari and Kinkakuji in Kyoto, plus a Nara day trip for the deer park and Todai-ji — but instead of a 4* group hotel chain and coach transfers you'll stay in well-located hostels and budget business hotels, ride the Hakone Free Pass and shinkansen, and book only the excursions you actually want. Costs are realistic budget-traveller estimates in GBP, excluding international flights.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Japan (Tokyo, Hakone, Kyoto, Nara) 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: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
