From $5499—7-day fully guided Japan tour, $2500-$2781 off
Tokyo, Fuji Five Lakes, Kyoto and Osaka in one clear, well-paced introduction to Japan's highlights.
Why We Love This Deal
Japan is easy to dream about, but harder to piece together yourself. This is where Japan specialists Wendy Wu Tours come in. Their classic 7-day itinerary gives first-timers a balanced way in, covering Tokyo, the Fuji Five Lakes, Kyoto and Osaka in an order that makes sense. Each stop shifts the experience. Tokyo brings neighbourhoods, movement and scale. Fuji opens everything out, with lake scenery and views of the mountain. Kyoto slows the pace, with temples, gardens and older streets. Osaka closes on a more social note, centred around food and the city at night. This land-only tour suits members who want flight flexibility, while everything else is sorted. The route, touring, transfers, tickets, and all meals are included, so members are not working out trains, transfers, or timing as they go.
This Wendy Wu Japan land only tour starts from $5499 per person for Travelzoo members. Members save $2500 per person on regular prices, with savings reaching $2781 per person on one exclusive departure, or up to 34% off. A low $99pp deposit secures these prices.

Itinerary highlights
In Tokyo, the journey begins amid a mix of tradition and modern life, where visits to Asakusa’s Senso-ji Temple, views from Tokyo Skytree, and time spent in districts like Shibuya and Ginza reveal the city’s constant movement and contrast.
Around the Fuji Five Lakes, the pace opens out, where Lake Ashi, ropeway viewpoints and clear-sky views of Mount Fuji create a slower, more scenic contrast, with time to take in the landscape from multiple angles.
Through Kyoto, the focus shifts to culture and heritage, where temple visits, a traditional tea ceremony and walks through bamboo groves and shrine-lined paths bring a more considered, historic atmosphere.
In Osaka, the journey builds in energy, with street food districts, bright signage and lively neighbourhoods like Dotonbori creating a vibrant, fast-paced finish.
