Your journey begins in Seoul, where the city’s history comes into view at Gyeongbokgung Palace. You’ll watch the Changing of the Guards ceremony, then put on traditional hanbok to explore the narrow lanes and historic houses of Bukchon Hanok Village. A kimchi-making demonstration offers a practical introduction to a much-loved Korean dish, while a walk beside Cheonggyecheon Stream brings a quieter pause in the city centre.
Next, you'll board Celebrity Millennium and sail to Jeju Island, where its volcanic peaks and rugged coastline are often likened to the tropical landscapes of Hawaii. From there, the cruise also calls at Hiroshima, where Peace Memorial Park offers time for reflection, and Osaka, with two days to explore the city or visit nearby Kyoto. At sea, full-board dining, an included drinks package and the ship’s restaurants, bars and pool give you time to unwind between ports.
After disembarking in Tokyo, you'll visit Senso-ji and browse the food stalls along Nakamise Street before taking in the city from Tokyo Skytree. A sushi-making masterclass turns lunch into an experience of its own, followed by the spectacle of Shibuya Crossing. Beyond the capital, a cruise on Lake Ashi and a ride on the Komagatake Ropeway bring you to viewpoints for Mount Fuji, weather permitting.
Your final stop is Nagano, which includes a stay at a traditional ryokan with time to enjoy its onsen. Then take the bullet train to Kyoto, where the itinerary includes Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi Inari’s rows of vermilion gates, the Golden Pavilion and Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. A maiko performance at dinner adds a memorable touch to your last evening.
