Explore Japan
Guests joining Diamond Princess in Tokyo on 14 June 2026 will embark on a journey perfectly timed for Japan’s early summer, when landscapes are lush, gardens are vibrant and traditions come to life. Tokyo itself offers a captivating prelude, blending historic shrines, peaceful gardens and ultra-modern cityscapes. Once onboard, guests are welcomed into the graceful comfort of Diamond Princess, where attentive service, beautifully appointed spaces and a calm, unhurried atmosphere set the tone for a deeply enriching voyage.
As the ship traces Japan’s coastline, travellers will encounter ports that reveal the country’s remarkable cultural and geographic diversity. Northern destinations such as Hakodate or Aomori showcase historic architecture, scenic harbours and local seafood traditions, while ports like Kanazawa or Toyama invite guests into exquisitely preserved old towns, renowned gardens and artisan districts. A call to Busan, South Korea, adds an international highlight, offering colourful markets, coastal scenery and a vibrant fusion of old and new.
Further along the route, southern ports such as Kochi or Kagoshima introduce a softer, greener side of Japan, with castle towns, forested mountains and striking volcanic backdrops. A visit to Shimizu provides one of the journey’s most iconic moments, with sweeping views of Mount Fuji rising majestically above the coastline. Each day brings new discoveries ashore, while evenings onboard offer refined dining, entertainment and relaxation. This Diamond Princess sailing is a beautifully balanced exploration of Japan — rich in culture, scenery and unforgettable moments.
