Sneak peek

Next stop: Japan! The world-famous bullet train whisks you across the country from metropolis to sanctuary and shows you a country like no other. In Tokyo, you cross the street with 3,000 people at once and find yourself back between flickering neon signs. In Kyoto and Kanazawa, you bask in the light of the Chochin lanterns that illuminate the geisha and samurai districts. And what's that nibbling at your backpack? The tame and curious deer of Miyajima like to get up close and personal, but you only have eyes for the red gate that seems to float atop the water. Shrines, bamboo forests, surreal castles – make sure to bring your bucket list. You'll be ticking tons of boxes on this trip!
