Overview
Explore the highlights of Japan on a culture-packed tour! Our Cruise & Tour journeys bring together all the joy of a cruise onboard the majestic Azamara Pursuit with all the exciting exploration of a Wendy Wu Tours land itinerary. On this one, you'll begin by discovering the wonders of Kyoto and Tokyo, before boarding your Azamara cruise to circumnavigate Japan's largest island, Honshu, and delving even deeper into its history and culture.
Tour experiences:
- Sake Tasting, Embark on a tour of a sake brewery, where you'll see first hand the traditional process used to brew the rice wine that is Japan's national beverage, all before enjoying some tasters.
- Learn to make Sushi, Discover the history and etiquette of making and appreciating sushi with a hands-on lesson before sitting down with your instructing chef to enjoy Japan's most famous cuisine. It's the taking part that counts!
- Bathe in an Onsen, There are around 25,000 hot spring sources across Japan, so it's no surprise that onsens are such a huge part of Japanese culture. Bathing in the geothermal waters, lauded for their medicinal qualities, is used for relaxation, healing and both literal and metaphorical cleansing. What better way to unwind after a day of exploring than making like a local and soaking.
