Japan has come to the fore as one of Goway’s major destinations, due in part to the image of Japan as an affordable and attractively varied destination. However, the increased demand also reflects Japan as a safe and civilized country for travellers. The combination of the traditional and the progressive aspects of Japan give it an excellent overall appeal in the North American market.
Goway’s tours take into account the need to see the well known and highly popular cities such as Tokyo and Kyoto as well as the need to see the lesser known but equally attractive parts of Japan such as Hakone, Takayama and Kanazawa.
Japan is very easy to get around due to the excellent and efficient rail service; travelling from one city to another is very quick and eliminates time involved checking in at airports for flights.
Goway offers 3 day stopovers in Tokyo, Kyoto, Nagoya and Hiroshima. Additional nights can be added as necessary to extend the stay, and excursions can be taken to traditional sites such as Nikko from Tokyo and Nara from Kyoto.
For travellers looking to join the Tokyo and Kyoto packages, Goway offers a 2 day Hakone National Park package starting in Tokyo and finishing in Kyoto from $573.
More intensive planned itineraries include the 9-day Classic Japan Getaway which visits Tokyo, Hakone, Kyoto and Hiroshima with travel between cities by Bullet Train. The package includes air travel with Japan Airlines, hotel accommodation, breakfast daily and sightseeing and transfers. Prices start from $3439 from Vancouver.
Also available is the 9 day Japan in Depth tour which visits Tokyo, Hakone National Park, Takayama, Kanazawa and Kyoto. Prices start from $3689 per person from Vancouver.
Goway also offers accommodation at Traditional Japanese Inns known as “Ryokan”. They offer an insight into how the Japanese would spend their leisure time. These vary in price depending on the style required and Goway has a good selection in Kyoto and Hakone National Park. Breakfast and dinner are always included as is genuine warm Japanese hospitality.
