Overview

This curated itinerary offers a unique journey through Japan with a special focus on Niigata—one of the country’s most culturally rich yet often overlooked regions. Begin in Tokyo with a stay at Mitsui Garden Hotel Gotanda, then travel to the historic city of Kanazawa for two nights at Tokyu Stay Kanazawa, where traditional districts and artisanal crafts await.

The highlight is a 3-day, full-board World of Rice tour in Niigata. Explore scenic rice terraces in Echigo Yuzawa, make Sasadango (a traditional mochi sweet), and unwind in a peaceful hot spring hotel. In Niigata City, enjoy a guided walking tour, create your own sushi with premium local seafood and rice, and take part in a sake tasting experience in Japan’s leading sake region.

Finish your journey with three relaxing nights at Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Shinjo, combining comfort with Kyoto’s timeless charm. With all hotels on a room-only basis (except Niigata), you'll have the flexibility to discover Japan’s diverse culinary scene on your own terms.
