Tokyo Highlights

5 days · from $1,680 $1,480

Five days in the world's greatest city — Senso-ji at dawn, Shibuya at night, and a day trip to Mt. Fuji's doorstep at Hakone.

Tokyo rewards a well-planned first visit like nowhere else. This compact five-day itinerary balances the essentials — the old shitamachi lanes of Asakusa, the fashion streets of Harajuku, the neon canyons of Shinjuku — with breathing room to wander, and a Hakone day trip for open-air hot springs and, weather willing, Mt. Fuji itself.

  • Guided old-Tokyo morning: Senso-ji and the Nakamise arcade
  • Hakone day trip: lake cruise, ropeway and onsen
  • Reserved counter seats at a Shinjuku izakaya
  • Japan visa documentation handled by our desk
