Walking tours are one of the best ways to explore a country in a new light. Walk Japan features fully-guided trails for travellers who enjoy strolling through streets, forest trails and foot paths to discover lesser-known parts of Japan.
The seven-day, six-night Tokaido Trail starts in Tokyo and finishes in Yuya Onsen. The tour follows the most interesting and enjoyable parts of the ancient highway at an easy walking pace at distances of between 10km and 14km each day. Trek through towns and along paths seemingly forgotten since the days when it was the major transport artery through Japan, chance upon relics and gain insights into travel and daily life in old Japan.
With a maximum group size of eight, accommodation will be provided at Japanese inns and hotels, along with luggage transfers, entrance fees, and transport for some days of the tour. Daily breakfast and dinner are included, as well as three lunches.
The next available tour is from November 22 to 28, and is priced at 384,000 yen (US$2,910) per pax.
