The Emerald Tours Difference

Both seasons allow you to immerse yourself in Japan’s natural elegance, blending luxury and charm at every turn. Emerald Tours operate from March - May and October - November.
Japan's cuisine is a rich tapestry of regional flavors, from Osaka's street food to Kyoto's refined kaiseki and Hokkaido's fresh seafood. Whether at a Michelin-starred counter or a humble noodle stall, every meal reflects a deep respect for ingredients, balance, and tradition.
Discover the spiritual heart of Japan through its most iconic temples. In Tokyo, Sensō-ji stands as the city’s oldest Buddhist sanctuary. Journey to Nara to witness the majesty of Tōdai-ji, once among the Seven Great Temples. In Kyoto, stroll through the tranquil Zen gardens of Tenryū-ji, and admire the shimmering beauty of Kinkaku-ji, the Golden Pavilion, reflecting the harmony of nature and spirituality.
A visit to Hiroshima will be powerful and moving as you take in the Peace Memorial Park and Museum, a profound tribute to the city’s past and its message of peace. Complementing this experience are Hiroshima’s cultural treasures and local flavours, including the iconic floating Torii Gate on nearby Miyajima Island.
