The Journey
The world’s largest city, and somehow its most orderly: sushi at dawn, neon at night, and a shrine around every corner.
A full day at sea: the pools, the spa, a long lunch, and the horizon doing all the work.
Scenic cruising: the ship eases through the day’s best water with the deck rails lined.
A quiet day between ports, the deck unhurried and the water in every direction.
Edo-period streets, a samurai quarter and Kenroku-en, one of Japan’s three great gardens.
Sake country on the Japan Sea, with Sado Island offshore.
Samurai houses at Kakunodate and the deepest lake in Japan up the valley.
Apple country and the Nebuta museum’s glowing festival floats.
Hokkaido’s southern port: a morning market of crab and uni, and the night view from the ropeway.
Iwate’s dramatic Sanriku coast, cliffs and clear coves.
The city of trees, gateway to Matsushima’s pine-covered islands.
The port for Tokyo’s north: Hitachi Seaside Park’s blue nemophila hills in spring.
The world’s largest city, and somehow its most orderly: sushi at dawn, neon at night, and a shrine around every corner.
Mount Fuji across the bay on a clear morning, and tea fields rolling to the shore.
Time to slow down: a lounger, the observation deck, and open ocean to the rail.
Palm trees, hot sand baths and a smoking volcano across the bay: Japan’s Naples.
A harbor of resilience: churches, gardens and one of Japan’s most moving museums.
Scenic cruising: the ship eases through the day’s best water with the deck rails lined.
The Peace Park says everything; Miyajima’s floating gate, an hour away, says the rest.
Castle town on Shikoku’s Pacific coast, with Japan’s liveliest street market.
Rebuilt, polished, and pouring the world’s most famous beef beneath Mount Rokko.
Nothing on the schedule but the sea. This is the part of the sailing people book it for.
The world’s largest city, and somehow its most orderly: sushi at dawn, neon at night, and a shrine around every corner.
