The gardens are situated against the backdrop of present-day skyscrapers, making it a unique place to visit.

Note: the grounds have some areas with steps, cobblestones, and uneven pathways.

Proceed to Odawara for lunch at a local restaurant, visit Odawara Castle, which is a three-tiered, five-story structure first built in the mid-15th century. The original building was demolished in the 19th century during the change from the Edo shogunate to the Meiji government, as the castle was seen as a symbol of samurai rule.

The current building is a reconstruction completed in 1960; the moat and stone walls are original, and the top floor functions as an observatory.

Note: There is no elevator, however there are wheelchair-accessible areas and restrooms.

Guests are invited to appreciate the rich history and picturesque environment surrounding the hotel. The property features traditional Japanese hot spring baths, ideal for therapeutic relaxation, with access to the Miyanoshita hot spring, one of Hakone’s seven celebrated springs.

Hamarikyu is a typical example of gardens from the Edo Period. It features the only seawater pond in Tokyo which change levels with the tides and a teahouse on an island where visitors can enjoy the scenery. From 1704, when this teahouse was first built, the Shoguns, and other elites such as Imperial Court nobles, who never tired of the relaxed atmosphere and the wonderful view of the palace, used it continuously.

Next, it’s on to Tokyo Tower, Japan’s second highest structure, which was built in 1958 as a symbol of Japan’s rebirth. After riding an elevator to the nearly 500-foot-high Grand Observation Platform, you will be treated to an astounding view of the city. If the sky is clear, you can see Mt. Fuji.

In time, you will stop at Lake Ashi for a scenic cruise. The crystal-clear lake was formed about 3,000 years ago in the caldera left after the volcanic eruption of Mount Hakone. If the conditions are ideal, as they often are, you will see Mt. Fuji and its inverted reflection on the water.

Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. On the return to the hotel, you will stop at Odawara Castle, which was originally built in the mid-15th century. The structure was destroyed in the latter half of the 19th century when political power changed from the Edo shogunate to the Meiji government, and the castle was condemned as the symbol of the samurai.

The castle that now stands is a reconstruction from 1960. However, the moat and stone walls are originals. The castle is a three-tiered, five-storied donjon, and its top floor is an observatory.

Back at your hotel, a traditional Japanese Kaiseki (multi course) dinner will be served.

After breakfast and checking out of the hotel, you will return to Tokyo. Back in the city you will visit the Asakusa (Senso-ji Temple) which was founded in the early 7th century. Weather permitting you will enter through a gate decorated with a huge red paper lantern.

The architecture is stunning, as this temple is the country’s oldest and one of the most revered.

Your tour also strolls down Nakamise-dori, known as the “Street of Inside Shops,” an alley lined with vendors selling traditional food, souvenirs and handmade crafts.

A traditional Japanese style BBQ lunch will be served before you drive to your hotel where the remainder of the day is at your leisure. Dinner is on your own

Continue to The Tokyo National Museum, recognized as Japan’s oldest and largest national museum. It houses extensive collections of artworks and archaeological artifacts ranging from ancient art (11,000 BC) to the Edo period (early 19th century).

Experience a seamless fusion of ancient tradition and cutting-edge modernity with this exclusive pre-cruise journey through Tokyo. From the moment you arrive, personalized service and curated private transfers usher you into the heart of Japan’s vibrant capital. Each day immerses you in Tokyo’s most iconic treasures—from serene shrines and historic temples to the dazzling energy of Ginza’s luxury district and the breathtaking vistas atop Odaiba’s futuristic skyline while also allowing plenty of free time to explore other areas of the city at your leisure.

DAY 1

Upon disembarkation in either Tokyo or Yokohama you will be met by your guide at the port and begin your tour of Tokyo.

Visit the modern Odaiba area. When the sprawling metropolis, that is Tokyo nowadays, ran out of space, they inevitably turned toward the sea. Odaiba is a man-made island created by massive landfills, featuring many hypermodern and strange buildings memorably described as the result of a Pre-schooler’s architecture class. You will have the chance to enjoy it from above, during a visit to an observation deck, located in one of Odaiba’s most iconic buildings: the headquarters of Fuji Television.

Continue to the beautiful Hamarikyu Garden, an Edo Period Japanese garden surrounded by the Shiodome district’s futuristic skyscrapers. This provides a great example of how Japan is the land of contrasts. The garden was originally built as a feudal lord's Tokyo residence and duck hunting grounds during the Edo Period but later served as a strolling garden and as an Imperial detached palace before eventually being opened to the public in its current form.

After lunch at a local restaurant, you will visit the Meiji Shrine. Dedicated to the Emperor Meiji, the father of modern Japan, the beautiful shrine stands in a dense forest glade of some 120,000 trees of 365 different species, at the very heart of Tokyo. You enter the shrine through twin 40-feet tall Torii gates, one of the largest in all Japan. This shrine is a popular place for traditional Japanese weddings, if you are lucky, you might get see one.

Continue to your hotel for check-in. The remainder of the day is at your leisure with dinner on your own.

Your room type provides access to the Executive Lounge.

DAY 2

Following breakfast at the hotel, depart on a half-day tour of the city.

Visit the Edo Tokyo Museum which, offers a fascinating journey through the rich history of Japan's capital, from its origins as Edo during the feudal era to its transformation into modern-day Tokyo. With impressive life-size reconstructions, historical artifacts, and interactive exhibits, the museum vividly brings to life the culture, architecture, and everyday life of the city across the centuries. It’s a must-visit for anyone interested in understanding Tokyo’s unique heritage and evolution.

Continue to the Ginza area, one of the most luxurious shopping districts in the world. The streets in Ginza are lined with numerous departments stores, boutiques, restaurants, and bars. Upon arrival you will enjoy some free time to browse, shop or perhaps visit some of the free galleries.

You can choose to either remain in Ginza and make your own way back to the hotel or return with the group.

The remainder of the day is at your leisure with lunch and dinner on your own.

DAY 3

Following breakfast at the hotel, you will begin yet another half-day tour of Tokyo, allowing you to see the city from a different perspective.

You will first journey to the Asakusa area – part of Tokyo’s Old Town. Visit the Asakusa Senso-ji Temple, which was founded in the early 7th century. Weather permitting, you will enter through a gate decorated with a huge red paper lantern to view the shrine. The architecture is stunning, as this temple is the country’s oldest and one of the most revered. One of the highlights is a walk down Nakamise-dori, known as the “Street of Inside Shops,” an alley lined with vendors selling traditional food, souvenirs, and handmade crafts.

Stop for photos at the Imperial Palace Plaza (no interior visit), where Japan’s Emperor and Empress reside. Surrounded by a moat, the palace was formerly known as Edo Castle, and samurai warriors lived there in the 17th through 19th centuries. In the large plaza in front of the palace, you can view the famed Nijubashi—two bridges that form an entrance to the inner palace grounds. The stone bridge in front is called Meganebashi (Eyeglass Bridge) for its looks.

You can choose to either remain in the area and make your own way back to the hotel or return with the group.

The remainder of the day is at your leisure with lunch and dinner on your own.

DAY 4

Enjoy one last breakfast at your hotel before checking out and transferring by private vehicle to Narita or Haneda International Airports. Your transfer time will be based on the flight details provided and relayed while you are on the program. Check out time is 11:00am. Should you have a late departing flight, luggage storage will be available at the hotel.

Note: A private van or SUV will be used to transfer couples or parties of two between the airport and the hotel. Vans hold a maximum of four pieces of large luggage (total) plus one carry-on sized bag per person. A sedan will be used for solo guests, which can hold 2 large suitcases and a carry-on. If you will have more luggage, a larger vehicle may be required for additional cost. Please advise your booking agent at least 14 days before sailing if a larger vehicle is required. Transfers are with driver only.

SPECIAL NOTES TO CONSIDER:

•In general, hotel rooms in Japan are smaller than hotel rooms elsewhere around the world. Per Japanese culture, standard typical bedding is two twin beds. Although every effort will be made to obtain rooms with one bed for couples, this cannot be guaranteed. Should you require two beds, kindly make sure to advise this when booking your program.

•Guests on group bookings are not eligible to earn “Hilton Honors Points” or receive Hilton Honors benefits.

•If you require special dietary accommodation for medical or religious reasons (not simply personal preference), please reach out to the Regent Reservations Team at least 95 days before your departure. Ensuring that your land program extension includes this information helps our local vendors provide a seamless and pleasant dining experience.

•By law, to alleviate traffic congestion, there are designated drop-off points for tourist buses. In many cases these points are a long walk from the entrance of the attraction.

•Japanese culture is unique and conservative and as such loud talking, smoking and eating while walking in the streets are frowned upon

•Guests with wheelchairs or scooters must advise in advance and have someone traveling with them to push, lift and/or carry these items as drivers and guides will not be able to assist. By law guests are not permitted to remain in the tour coaches at the various stops.
