Small ship cruising holidays in Japan

Small ship cruising holidays in Japan see tradition and modernity go hand in hand. Sail in luxury between ports such as Osaka, the foodie capital, and Hiroshima, with regular shore excursions, sumptuous meals and depending on the itinerary, specialist onboard talks. Smaller vessels such as these minimise the impact on the community and the environment, and make for a far more pleasant way to cruise.
