Japan is a country that effortlessly combines ancient traditions with modern energy, and this trip lets you explore both sides. You start in Kyoto<\/strong>, the cultural heart of the country. Here you walk through narrow streets lined with wooden houses, visit temples and shrines that have existed for hundreds of years, and sample local specialties in small stores and tea houses. It feels like stepping back in time as daily life goes on around you. Every corner of Kyoto has a story, from the thousands of torii gates of Fushimi Inari to the serene gardens of the Golden Temple, and it is a place where culture and history become tangible. <\/p>

From Kyoto travel on to the area around Mount Fuji<\/strong>, with stunning views from Kawaguchiko and the surrounding lakes. Here nature is at its best: reflective lakes, small traditional villages such as Oshino Hakkai and the peaceful atmosphere of the countryside make it a beautiful counterpart to the urban bustle. Depending on the season, you can enjoy cherry blossoms, autumn colors or just the clear sky and imposing silhouette of Japan’s most famous mountain. It’s a place to catch your breath, walk along its banks or just watch the landscape slowly change as the day passes. <\/p>

In addition to culture and nature, the trip also offers the chance to explore Japan’s marine life<\/strong>. From the Izu Peninsula<\/strong> you can do several dives around Mikomoto Island,<\/strong> which is known worldwide for its large schools of hammerhead sharks and the rich fish life brought by the Kuroshio current. The dives are mainly drift dives with the chance to see lots of pelagic life, impressive schools of fish and of course hammerhead sharks! <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
