Japan - Private Travel

It is timeless and fleeting, orderly and unrestrained. Japan has the ability to find calm in the chaotic and to find beauty in the most simplistic. In its quest for perfection in everything, including luxury hospitality, this country tends to outdo itself, at rest or play: shopping along luxury high streets or seeking solace in ancient temples, taking the waters in a traditional onsen, or a tea ceremony in a formal garden, going for ramen or enjoying a seven-course meal, Japan is a land of bold extremes.

The simple and approachable food experience is a banquet of ingredients and textures - noodles and broths, umami and miso, seafood and sauces, tempura, and pickled vegetables.

There is a politeness here you won’t find anywhere else. Exceedingly gracious, hospitable, and helpful, the Japanese are masters of making you feel at home. While reserved and modest, they also know how to poke fun at themselves – and each other.

Truly modern in every sense, Japan has pioneered some of the best designs in the world, the most original fashion, an innovative culinary culture, and the fastest bullet trains to promptly get you where you want to be. At the same time, its traditional traits, firmly rooted in Buddhist and Shinto teachings, affect all aspects of life.

Regional variations of Japan’s gastronomy are an adventure unto themselves. Going well beyond sushi, the simple and approachable food experience is a banquet of ingredients and textures – noodles and broths, umami and miso, seafood and sauces, tempura, and pickled vegetables. Interestingly, this is also where you’ll find some of the best whiskey outside of Scotland.

From snorkeling and scuba diving in the south to hiking and world-class ski resorts in the north, Japan is also an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise. But for more moderate pursuits, set about touring the temples and shrines, taking time for a “nature bath,” or dipping into the geothermal spas – particularly those favored by the locals.
