In addition to featuring various summer-themed travel routes, the guide also provides detailed transportation information to help independent travelers plan their own Tohoku journeys. It also includes related travel itinerary information for reference. Starting in September, there will be a series of direct charter flights to major airports in northern Tohoku, making it easy to go and admire the region’s stunning autumn foliage.
