Destinations

Tokyo, Japan

Explore the vibrant neighborhoods of Shibuya and Shinjuku, and don't miss the iconic Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa. Try ramen, sushi at Tsukiji Outer Market, and grab a convenience store onigiri for the full Tokyo experience.
Kyoto, Japan

Kyoto is Japan's cultural heart — walk through the thousands of torii gates at Fushimi Inari and stroll the geisha district of Gion. Don't leave without trying kaiseki cuisine or matcha sweets in the Higashiyama neighborhood.
Osaka, Japan

Osaka is Japan's street food capital — head to Dotonbori for takoyaki, okonomiyaki, and endless neon-lit energy. It's an easy day trip or stopover from Kyoto before flying home, and Osaka Castle is worth a quick visit.
