Overview

Spring is a time of transition in Japan. It’s known as the season of farewells and new beginnings as schools, companies, and other institutions prepare for new terms. This season is gently tinted by cherry blossoms, Japan’s celebrated sakura. While Japan is home to many famous cherry blossom spots, there are also hidden groves on remote islands in the Seto Inland Sea. This leisurely tour takes you to Sagi Island in Hiroshima, a lesser-known destination. A local guide takes you to several hilltops wreathed in sakura, with breathtaking views and evocative ancient Buddhist statues.

Features

• Visit a beautiful island with a knowledgeable local guide.
• Cycle around the island visiting cherry blossom groves and historic sites.
• Experience the tranquil life of the Seto Inland Sea like a native.
