Compared with many far eastern lands, Japan remains an enigma ­ steeped in mystical art forms, ancient religion and curious daily rituals. Our tour begins in Tokyo, the dynamic capital, and continues to Kyoto, the spiritual and historical heart of Japan. YOUR ITINERARY DAY 1 - Depart on your scheduled flight to Tokyo. DAY 2 - Arrival in Tokyo. Transfer to your hotel for a three night stay. DAY 3 - Tokyo is a showcase city with wide bridges, deluxe hotels, spectacular theatres and elegant shopping plazas, but modern influences have not overwhelmed the old. Tea ceremonies, flower arrangements, festivals and old traditions are a constant reminder of the Japan of `Madame Butterfly' and `The Mikado'. This morning we have included a city tour. You will see Asakusa Kaman Temple, the Imperial Palace, the famous Ginza shopping district and the Meiji Shrine. DAY 4 - Free in Tokyo. Alternatively, you can join a full day optional excursion to the splendid volcanic cone of Mount Fuji, the highest mountain in Japan.
