Tokyo Kyoto
One of the most vibrant cities in the world, Tokyo is a veritable kaleidoscope of bright neon signs, buzzing traffic and chatter, and wafts of decadent sweet treats, aromatic grilled meats and temple incense. From the towering skyscrapers and futuristic billboards of Shinjuku to the ancient temples and nostalgic charm of Asakusa, Tokyo can feel like a sensory overload - in the best way possible. Get ready to match Tokyo's energy as you wander through the bustling neighborhoods, sample world-class cuisine, from sushi to ramen to yakitori, and stumble upon hidden gems tucked away in this unforgettable city.
A hop, skip, and bullet train ride away, Kyoto feels like a completely different world. An ethereal ancient city that was once the imperial capital of Japan, it still retains much of its tranquility and traditional charm. Visit the countless temples and shrines that dot the city, step into a picturesque Zen Garden for a moment of quiet contemplation and stroll down cobblestone alleys filled with ancient tea houses. A delightful destination to visit year-round, Kyoto is especially beautiful during Sakura season in the spring, when pink cherry blossom flowers burst forth throughout the city, and in the autumn, when the foliage paints the gardens and mountains in vibrant shades of red, orange, and yellow.
