Enjoy Japan’s Fall Colors
One of the many exciting aspects about this nearly two-month itinerary is the opportunity to explore 13 Japanese port cities during the autumn season when temperatures are cooler, and the weather is ideal for outdoor adventures and leisurely walks. With autumn comes vibrant fall colors, making it the best time of year to visit if you love autumn hues.
