Japan cruises

See the best of Japan on a cruise. Whether you’d like to take in the big city lights and the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, take in the beauty of the cherry blossoms in bloom, explore the ancient temples and shrines in Osaka and Kyoto, get up close to the iconic Mt Fuji, or go off the beaten track to the Okinawa Islands, there’s a Japan cruise with your name on it.

For longer trips, you can choose to cruise to Japan from Australia, or for shorter getaways, enjoy easy roundtrip cruises from Tokyo as you circle Japan and take in all the best sights. Cruises to Japan during cherry blossom season is perhaps one of the most popular time to visit the country and tick off this bucket list experience.
