Discover a different side of Japan beyond the country’s classic sightseeing routes.
Japan Beyond the Classics is designed for travelers who want to explore smaller cities, mountain regions, traditional towns and local communities while still connecting with some of Japan’s essential destinations.
The journey can combine the Japanese Alps, historic post towns, traditional neighborhoods, regional cuisine, scenic rail journeys and relaxing onsen experiences. From Matsumoto and Takayama to Kanazawa and Kinosaki Onsen, each destination offers a more intimate perspective on Japanese culture and everyday life.
Rather than following a fixed itinerary, the route can be adapted according to season, travel style and your clients’ interests. Rural experiences, local guides, cultural activities and selected accommodations can be incorporated into the program.
Ranica Travel provides the local knowledge and operational support required to combine lesser-visited destinations with smooth transportation, accommodation and ground arrangements throughout Japan.
