Ultimate Japan: Experience Japan through sport, culture and local life

Japan is a country that has to be experienced to be understood. The energy of its cities, the food, the traditions, the people — and a sporting culture unlike anywhere else in the world.

Ultimate Japan is a 10-day journey designed to show you the country through sport.

Instead of simply visiting the major sights and ticking destinations off a list, you'll experience Japan from a different perspective. You'll step inside its sporting culture, discover the rituals and traditions surrounding the action, explore incredible cities and share it all with a group of fellow sports fans.

Sport in Japan is an experience in itself. The atmosphere, supporter culture and matchday traditions can feel completely different from what you're used to back home. And that's exactly what makes this trip special. You'll get the opportunity to experience that culture first-hand while discovering everything else that makes Japan such an unforgettable destination.

But Ultimate Japan is about much more than what happens inside the stadiums and arenas.

Discover Tokyo by bike, play futsal with local people and explore Japan's football culture through a Captain Tsubasa experience and a stadium tour.

You'll also experience another side of Japanese culture with a Kintsugi or Sushi Workshop, before leaving Tokyo for a full-day trip to Kamakura or Nikko.

Your Accommodation

Your base throughout the trip will be APA Hotel Asakusabashi Ekikita or similar, with nine nights of accommodation and daily breakfast included. Accommodation is based on two guests sharing a Standard Double Room. Guests travelling alone or requesting a private room must select the Single Room Supplement when booking.

It's a trip built around sport, but also around experiencing the city and culture behind it. And you don't have to pay for the entire trip upfront. You can secure your place with a deposit payment, giving you the flexibility to reserve your spot now and pay the remaining balance later.
