Japan travel: three weeks of joy

Finally Japan!

It is gonna be expensive? How are we gonna manage with that knotty subway in Tokyo? Is the travel Japan so different than travel other places?…and it was getting bigger and bigger in my head! 
But when we finally decided to buy a three weeks tour holiday from a travel agency specialised in this kind of custom-made holiday package all my worries vanished.
We choose what to see and where to go and they customised the whole trip for us and what we get was a real three-weeks-long joy!

Now, as you know, Japan is everything about efficiency and reliability so you can definitely find your way; is just to have everything already arranged for you makes the life so cushy, so relaxed …and when it comes about holidays, that s the all point, isn't it?


We had a great start with several days in Tokyo - free program but for an overnight trip to Nikko and we gloriously end up our holiday in the beautiful city of Kyoto, again with several days at our convenience but for a day trip to Nara!
In between we traveled by bus and train following a spectacular route through the Northern Alps; we had an amazing trip and I plan to share some of those beautiful pictures within my next posts about Japan.
Interested? Stay tuned! 
Meanwhile, some randomly chosen picture.
