— Itinerary Overview —

  • Tamahara Ski Resort (Plans A & B: winter departures only)

A popular day-trip ski resort from Tokyo. Small but well-equipped, with a children's snow play area featuring sleds, snowboards, and shovels, plus a conveyor belt slope. Great for all ages.

  • Tamahara Lavender Garden (Plans C & D: summer departures only)

The same grounds transform each summer into Kanto's largest lavender garden. At 1,300m elevation with ~50,000 lavender plants, it stays cool even in midsummer — a popular highland retreat. Stroll through purple lavender fields and pick up a lavender soft-serve ice cream. Lavender products available on-site.

  • Fukiware Falls (Plans E & F: autumn departures only)

Fukiware Falls (7m high, 30m wide) formed from eroded riverbed rock — often called the "Niagara of the Orient." In autumn, gold and crimson foliage frames the powerful falls.

※ Expected foliage season: late October to early November

  • Numata Castle Ruins Park (Plans G & H: spring departures only)

Numata Park features ~210 Yoshino cherry trees centered on the iconic "Goten-zakura." An annual cherry blossom festival in mid-April hangs lanterns beneath the blooming trees, adding a nostalgic glow.

※ Expected cherry blossom season: early April to mid-late April

  • Harada Farm

A well-known sightseeing fruit orchard in Gunma — dubbed the "Fruit Village" — about 1.5 hours from Tokyo. Strawberries grow in greenhouses through autumn, winter, and spring; cherries, peaches, grapes, and apples in summer and autumn. Pick fresh seasonal fruit straight from the source.

※ Strawberry: late Oct – early Jun (following year) / Cherry: early Jun – mid-Jul / Peach: mid-Jul – early Sep / Grape: mid-Aug – mid-Oct / Apple: late Aug – early Dec

※ Fruit type depends on season and farm conditions. If Harada Farm is unavailable, an alternative farm will be arranged at no extra cost.

  • Kawagoe

Once the castle town of the Kawagoe Domain in the Edo period, Kawagoe has preserved its historic streets and temples — earning the nickname "Little Edo." Designated a Preservation District for Traditional Buildings, the city draws visitors year-round.

  • Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine (Plans C, D, E, F, G, and H only)

With a 1,500-year history, Hikawa Shrine holds important cultural properties and is renowned for blessings related to love, marriage, and family. Try the unique tai-shaped fortune draw at the pond. In spring, a 300-meter cherry blossom embankment along Hikawa Bridge next to the shrine creates a romantic scene.

※ Expected cherry blossom season: early April to mid-late April

Head to the large lavender garden located on the plateau of Gunma Prefecture. In summer, about 50,000 lavender plants bloom, turning the entire hillside into a dreamy purple sea of ​​flowers. It is a representative flower-viewing and summer-avoiding spot in the Kanto region.
