The same Tokyo, but a different itinerary. In addition to visiting must-see areas like Odaiba, a sub-center of Tokyo, and Karuizawa, you’ll also enjoy free time exploring the streets of Omotesando and Roppongi. The trip takes you deeper into Kusatsu Onsen, Japan’s top hot spring destination, as well as lesser-visited spots on regular Tokyo group tours such as the Daruma dolls at Takasaki Daruma House and the Ishidan Hot Spring Street in Ikaho. Though the itinerary is rich, it’s not rushed, and even reserves a full day to explore Tokyo Disneyland. It’s perfect not only for first-time visitors to Tokyo but also offers fresh experiences for those returning.
