The catalogue — four, ever
Four journeys a year
Japan has four seasons and treats each one as a national event. So do we — one journey per season, twelve travellers per journey, no exceptions and no waiting-list arithmetic.
Spring · Flagship · 10 days
The Long Spring
Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo — the classic route, walked slowly, under the blossom front. Street counters and golden pavilions, a ryokan night, and the 6 a.m. ramen that becomes a personality trait. This is the journey the company was built around.
- Route
- Osaka — Kyoto — Tokyo
- Departures
- Late March & mid April
- From
- €3,900 per traveller
Summer · 9 days
The Green Hour
The Japan the postcards skip: lakes at the foot of Fuji, cedar trails in the Alps, and Kanazawa's gardens at their deepest green. Early starts, long lunches, mountain air that resets your standards for it.
- Route
- Fuji Five Lakes — Alps — Kanazawa
- Departures
- June & early July
- From
- €3,400 per traveller
Autumn · 8 days
The Momiji Hunt
Maple season, chased properly: Kyoto's temple gardens at first blush, Nara's deer among the ginkgo, and a night on Koyasan with the monks, where autumn does its best work in silence.
- Route
- Kyoto — Nara — Koyasan
- Departures
- Mid & late November
- From
- €3,200 per traveller
Winter · 8 days
The Quiet North
Hokkaido under two metres of the world's softest snow. Sapporo's food halls, Otaru's gaslit canal, onsen steam in minus twelve, and the particular joy of powder falling on a completely silent street.
- Route
- Sapporo — Otaru — the snow country
- Departures
- January & February
- From
- €3,600 per traveller
