The combination of traditional and futuristic is found in a culture that celebrates heritage while looking toward the future as you explore together during a Japan family vacation.

Nature fuses into the edges of modern technology, and customary inns are hidden in the mountains, leading to secluded hot springs. Gourmet restaurants offer exquisite dishes steeped in the past, and geishas wander the cobblestone streets between traditional houses.

Experience a tea ceremony, sample sushi, and ride on the famous bullet trains for new experiences that will immerse you and your family in the essentials of Japan and beyond. Speak with a local Japan travel expert after discovering the possibilities for your trip with our sample itineraries.

Japan Travel Review: Local Cuisine, Train Ride, Culture,...

Overall, we had the most informative and enjoyable trip of a lifetime.

Two people in particular should be commended. One of our Zicasso trip planners provided excellent pre-trip advice. He promptly responded to all of our emails and made itinerary changes when we requested them. Our first guide was the most incredible human being; prompt, kind, generous, and efficient. Her restaurant selections were all five-star. The information she provided was most enlightening. She was careful to explain, in advance, our daily activities, including important timelines.

We just returned from a fantastic trip to Japan, our third family adventure with Zicasso. Our travel company provided excellent support throughout the planning process and outstanding resources for use during our trip. The accommodations in three cities were amazing and the mix of one-day guides, plus flexibility to wander and discover on our own, was ideal. Our entire experience was seamless. Thank you!

Japan Tour Review: Tokyo, Kanazawa, Kyoto, Nara, Osaka,...

Zicasso's travel specialist and her team planned an absolutely outstanding 16-day trip for me and my family. We visited Tokyo, Ghibli Park (near Nagoya), Kanazawa, Kyoto (with day trips to Nara and Osaka), and then wrapped things up with two nights at a beautiful and luxurious ryokan in Hakone.

Communication leading up to the trip was clear and efficient, and whenever we had a question during the trip, we were able to get quick answers from our travel company's rep in Japan.

I would absolutely book another trip with this company.

Japan Tour Review: Arashiyama Forest Walk, Origami Experience,...

As a family of four with a deep passion for travel, visiting Japan had been on our bucket list for years, and this year, we indulged ourselves with a Zicasso trip. It was nothing short of magical!

From the very start, the planning process was thoughtful and personalized, and the detailed preparation we received before our departure made us feel confident and excited.

Once we arrived, every part of the trip felt curated with care to our needs and family interests, with our personal highlight the origami experience our son had been dreaming about!

From biking through the vibrant streets of Tokyo to soaking in the beauty of the bamboo forest in Arashiyama to walking through the living history of Kyoto or admiring the Osaka Castle, every day of the trip was unique!

A special thank you to the Zicasso travel company's entire team, who were always just a message away. When we had to adjust cities and accommodations due to our flight schedule mid-trip, our travel specialist stepped in with calm and expert support, turning what could have been a stressful situation into a smooth transition. We truly felt cared for every step of the way.

Whether it was indulging in sushi at nearly every turn, embracing our inner geeks at Nintendo World (not even the rain could stop us!), or simply being present in the magic that is Japan, this Zicasso trip was unforgettable!
