THE JAPAN CRUISE HACK NO ONE TALKS ABOUT 🍁🇯🇵
Seriously, this might be one of my favorite cruise travel hacks.
Fewer people talk about cruising Japan in the fall, but you get cooler sightseeing weather, lighter crowds, gorgeous scenery and some pretty spectacular days in port.
Aomori was the perfect example. We booked a smaller-group excursion with Shore Excursions Group and managed to see Oirase Stream, Lake Towada AND Hirosaki Castle in one day, with the peace of mind of their return-to-ship guarantee.
And here’s another little cruise hack: you don’t always have to book your excursions through the cruise line. Smaller-group independent tours can often give you more options at a lower price.
Want to shop smaller-group shore excursions for your next cruise? Not just Japan, but destinations all over the world.
Comment JAPAN and I’ll send you my link to start shopping. 🇯🇵
