Japan Family Vacations & Tours

The combination of traditional and futuristic is found in a culture that celebrates heritage while looking toward the future as you explore together during a Japan family vacation.

Nature fuses into the edges of modern technology, and customary inns are hidden in the mountains, leading to secluded hot springs. Gourmet restaurants offer exquisite dishes steeped in the past, and geishas wander the cobblestone streets between traditional houses.

Experience a tea ceremony, sample sushi, and ride on the famous bullet trains for new experiences that will immerse you and your family in the essentials of Japan and beyond. Speak with a local Japan travel expert after discovering the possibilities for your trip with our sample itineraries.

Japan Travel Review: Tokyo, Kyoto, Kintsugi, Meditation, 1 Week

Zicasso’s travel specialist helped us put together a great family trip to Japan. He created the perfect itinerary based on our likes/dislikes and was easy to communicate with. We enjoyed our tour with our guide in Tokyo and were especially delighted that the travel specialist personally guided us around Kyoto. Both he and our guide showed us parts of these cities off the beaten track. The travel specialist is incredibly knowledgeable about Japan and his passion for the culture is contagious.

Japan Travel Review: Tokyo, Kanazawa, Kyoto, Koyasan, Mount Fuji, Hakone, Culture, Art, 2 Weeks

Japan was a dream. The trip was so well planned and everything worked better than we had imagined. There were zero problems.

Zicasso’s travel specialist was also the best travel agent ever! The best communicator—all questions were answered immediately. I had an extremely complicated itinerary; she made it much better. She suggested the coolest things/ways in culture, art, and what to do.

My wife and I did not expect such a smooth and easy trip in a land where we only knew about eight words. As quoted from many YouTube videos, “Highly recommended” (add “very” to that).

Japan Tour Review: Sword-Making Workshop, Tea Ceremony, Maiko Experience, 13 Nights

Zicasso’s travel specialist and her team get our very highest rating. Ten out of 10 isn’t high enough! From helping us navigate a medical emergency in Japan to making on-the-fly changes to our plans, to hotel and activity selections, attention to detail, and prompt communication, the tour operator was the best. We would absolutely use them again and plan to recommend them to friends and family.
