They can be a completely tailor-made trip through Japan to suit your interests and preferences. However, it can be daunting to start from a completely blank canvas, and that is why we have created Private Tour Model Itineraries for you!
You can take the model itinerary as is, or combine or modify it, in other words, we will tailor make the holiday to suit your needs. There are some great tour Extension Itineraries available too, and they can also be added before or after joining any of our Small Group Tours.
Like our popular Small Group Tours, these itineraries are packed with unique and authentic experiences, the Journey to the East way.

Vivien Hewitt, Western Australia
This was my first trip with JTTE and already I am looking at the program for next year thinking about another one. I liked the fact that it was a small group, the organisation was spot on and the food everywhere was outstanding.
