You may have noticed this year we are not running tours to Japan during the month of September like we usually do.

Instead, for 2024 we have chosen November as a captivating time to visit and here's why -

1. **Vibrant Autumn Foliage**: November marks the peak of the autumn foliage season in Japan, known as "koyo." Experience breathtaking landscapes as the leaves turn brilliant shades of red, orange, and yellow, transforming parks, gardens, and mountains into stunning vistas.

2. **Mild Weather**: With the scorching summer heat behind and the chilly winter temperatures yet to arrive, November offers pleasantly mild weather across most regions of Japan. It's perfect for exploring outdoor attractions comfortably without the extremes of temperature.

3. **Less Crowded Attractions**: Compared to the peak tourist seasons of spring and summer, November sees fewer crowds at popular attractions, allowing you to explore iconic landmarks such as Kyoto's temples and Tokyo's bustling streets with more ease and tranquility.

4. **Onsen (Hot Springs) Experience**: There's nothing quite like soaking in a warm, therapeutic onsen as the crisp autumn air surrounds you. November offers the perfect weather to enjoy this quintessential Japanese experience, providing relaxation and rejuvenation.

5. **Autumn Illuminations**: As the days grow shorter, cities come alive with dazzling light displays and autumn illuminations. Witness iconic landmarks bathed in mesmerizing lights, creating unforgettable nighttime spectacles.

In summary, November in Japan offers a magical tapestry of colors, flavors, and experiences that appeal to every traveler's senses. Whether you're seeking natural beauty, cultural immersion, or culinary delights, Japan in November promises an unforgettable journey."
