Fully Escorted Tours
Every year JTB Australia offers a limited number of fully escorted small group tours to Japan. Each of these focuses on a specific area or special interest in Japan, such as the Cherry Blossom season; Ice Festivals, Behind the Scenes (off the beaten track) Nature tours, Kyoto Autumn Gardens, and more. These tours are limited to 25 participants and very popular, and often book out long before departure.
Please call one of our travel consultants for more details.
