Winter in Japan with clear blue skies during the day and at night, the city lights up with magical illuminations. Just one of the seasonal delights adopted from the Christmas holidays and the most popular attraction during winter. Make sure that you take in the various light displays and other seasonal attractions available only at this time of year. December in Tokyo is pretty chilly, but don’t worry – you can warm your soul with delicious hot pot or Shabu Shabu and enjoy a bowl of matcha green tea while you learn about the tea ceremony. Did you know that Starbucks in Japan is particularly famous for their seasonal drinks, why not check out the special while you’re here! What’s a visit to Japan without a trip to one of the famous karaoke booths, where you can sing your heart out solo or invite your new friends to join in.
With the weather changing and autumn on its way, why not try the Japanese hot pot dish. The name Shabu Shabu comes from the sound of stirring the thinly sliced meat and vegetables in the cooking pot. By cooking it on the table, and dipping in different cold sauces, you can tailor each mouthful to have a different taste. 
We're sure you've heard of karaoke, but have you experienced Japanese style karaoke? In a private booth for your group, two microphones and take it in turns to sing along to your favourite songs. If you are brave enough, why not whip out those Japanese songs you know to impress your new friends! 
Christmas in Japan is not what you might expect. As it's not a traditional holiday, you'll find some funny and interesting takes on this seasonal celebration. Did you know for example that many people eat fried chicken on Christmas Eve in Japan. There is however one thing that Japan has made their own - Christmas illuminations. They're truly worth a visit, with large areas of the city lit up throughout the whole of December and January, but the best places to view them are just outside of Tokyo. Big displays that will take your breath away. 
Tokyo Skytree being 634 meters high makes it the best spot for panoramic views of Tokyo. Just a short train ride away is Asakusa with its old town atmosphere. We'll visit the ancient temple Senso-ji and Nakamise street where street food and souvenirs are sold. A short walk away you'll find Kappabashi ("Kitchen Town"), which has all kinds of kitchenware, as well as the amazing plastic food samples for sale! 
Are you familiar with Studio Ghibli? The animation studio behind favorites such as Totoro, the Cat Bus, etc. Even if you're not, you can still enjoy this amazing museum dedicated to showcasing the art and techniques of animation. The architecture of the buildings alone will bring out your inner child. On top of that you can enjoy themed sweets in their cafe, a theatre showing short films exclusive to the museum, and a nice souvenir shop for you hardcore fans who want to get memorabilia from your favourite films. 
Starting at Asakusa, we'll be hopping onto a cruise boat to relax and unwind, whilst making our way down the Sumida River. Take in the sights from a different viewpoint, as we head towards our next destination - a man-made island in Tokyo Bay called Odaiba. The island is a popular destination for entertainment; it has restaurants and shopping malls, a ferris wheel, big statues and interesting museums. Once there we'll go for a short walk and, if you fancy it, warm up with hot drinks or snacks before getting ready for a spectacular fireworks display. 
Join us for an afternoon of Japanese culture, held in a traditional setting. Let's start by getting into the right mood and get dressed up in the traditional garment Yukata (a type of Kimono). Then it's time to learn the art of serving and drinking green Japanese matcha tea. Enjoy watching the performance whilst eating a Japanese sweet (Wagashi), often served together with the rich green tea. The content of the course and the type of activities included might change depending on the situation.
