About the region Japan presents a unique landscape for the Jewish traveler, where ancient shrines and ultra-modern skyscrapers coexist. The journey begins in Tokyo, the bustling capital, where the tour explores prominent districts like Shinjuku, Ginza, and the historic Asakusa. Beyond the urban centers, the route travels to the Fuji Five Lakes region, offering views of Mount Fuji and the vibrant autumn colors of Lake Kawaguchiko. While Japan has a small resident Jewish community with established centers like the JCC in Tokyo and the historic Ohel Shelomoh Synagogue in Kobe, Gaya Tours provides its own comprehensive infrastructure to ensure an immersive experience across these diverse regions.
What to expect Participants can look forward to a program that emphasizes both education and relaxation. A cornerstone of the Gaya Tours experience is the culinary program; instead of relying on local options, guests enjoy Glatt Kosher cuisine prepared by private chefs in a dedicated kitchen. This allows for the exploration of Japanese flavors within a strictly kosher framework. The itinerary is packed with exclusive workshops, including traditional Japanese woodwork, a Soba making session, and a Wagashi workshop.
Daily excursions are balanced by stays in premier 5-star hotels, such as the Hilton Tokyo. From the digital art installations at TeamLab Planets to the serene bamboo forests and the historic Imperial Palace, the tour provides a comprehensive overview of Japan’s heritage. Nature lovers will appreciate the visit to the Hakone Open Air Museum and the Kubota Itchiku Museum, while those interested in local industry will value the visits to traditional sake breweries and the Tsukiji Fish Market.
