Abercrombie & Kent is responding to demand for Japan as the country’s border restrictions eased this week, developing a number of new luxury journeys through the country.
Working closely with its office in Tokyo, A&K says it is able to bring guests its most immersive Japanese experiences yet. Guests can relish a behind-the-scenes visit to a sumo stable, a kodo taiko drumming workshop, an itamae master sushi class, private tea ceremonies in historic Zen gardens, geisha performances, and hands-on demonstrations in the arts of samurai and ninja.
The portfolio features four suggested Tailor-Made Journeys, an intimate Luxury Small Group Journey and a Cherry Blossom Luxury Expedition Cruise, with two new journeys: Art & Culture in Japan, and Winter in Hokkaido.
