Join Wild Women as we introduce Japan for the very first time and unlock the mystical. Renew your senses and spirit on this adventure that offers a big taste of Japan’s traditions, menu, topography, ancient wisdom and pilgrimages.
This is the Japan you didn’t know you were dreaming of and you’ll be experiencing it all in the camaraderie of Wild Women who are just as curious and tempted by Japan’s secrets as you are!
Considered to be one of the most attractive countries in the world to visit, Japan is a timeless place where ancient traditions collide with modern life, and travelling with a small group of like-minded women is the best way to experience it!
We'll spend time at the beginning in Kyoto, the cultural heart of Japan, and at the end in Tokyo, a mixture of ancient and modern. In between, we will hike some of the best parts of the Nakasendo Way, which linked the two cities during Japan's feudal period.
