A Four Day Itinerary From Tokyo To Niigata & Nagano
The doors to the shinkansen close, and the serenity has already begun. As you look out the window, Tokyo seems like it must still be abuzz with the excitement we all love and expect, but you're already on your way to Nagano and Niigata prefectures for an escape of an entirely different design. Here in the mountains, and down to the other sea, a fantastic tapestry of Japan's natural boastables awaits. Four nights gives you a comfortable look into some of the region's best offerings.
