A special note about Japan
When the time is right Inspirational, evocative, innovative and intriguing, Japan has always been a favorite destination for our guests. Our hearts, indelibly touched by the beauty of the country and its people, respectfully go out to them during this time of hardship as the nation strives to rebuild lives and communities. While we have put our travel plans for Essence of Japan on hold for the near future, we are anticipating returning with our guests in 2012. In Japanese culture, Nemawashi, the term for quietly laying down the foundation for a proposed change or project before it is formally carried out, is an important step for the successful implementation of the change. We followed their cultural lead by enhancing our existing trip with this newly enriched itinerary and are awaiting their readiness before we resume our journeys to their revered country. If you would like to join us on Essence of Japan in 2012, please call us so that we can reserve a space for you. We will contact you with the specifics at a later date. When the time is right, we hope you can join us in Japan.
