Expedition cruise lines are a great fit for adventure-seeking travelers, featuring exciting destinations like the Galapagos Islands, Antarctica, and the Norwegian coast. During the cruise, there will usually be plenty of interesting lectures given by experts on the destination being visited. Often, shore excursions are included in the cost of the cruise.

River Cruise Lines

Becoming more and more popular, a river cruise is an immerse and destination-focused vacation experience, on a small and luxurious vessel.

River cruises sail through the inland waterways of some of the world's most interesting vacation destinations (i.e. Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and North America), and provide their guests with a greater opportunity to spend time visiting more unique ports of call than a traditional cruise typically would.

Because the destination is the star of a river cruise, (typically guided) shore excursions are included at no additional charge by many River cruise lines. There are usually many interesting lectures given during the cruise, by experts on the history and culture of the region being visited.

Among the famous rivers that one may take a river cruise on are the Rhine, Mississippi, Seine, Danube, Mekong, Nile, Yangtze, Amazon and Douro.

Things to do near Tokyo, Japan

These are just a few of the more popular tourist attractions in Tokyo, along with a brief description:

♦ Tokyo Skytree

For the best view of Tokyo, consider paying a visit to the Tokyo Skytree. To give you an idea of how tall this tower is, it ranks as the second tallest structure next to the famous Burj Khalifa building. You can purchase tickets to access the two observation decks, which provide you with breathtaking panoramic views of the city. The Tokyo Skytree also features a gift shop, café, upscale French-Japanese restaurant, and gallery. There is also a large aquarium located at the tower’s base. If you stick around until the sun goes down, you can see the tower all lit up, which is a true feast for your eyes!

♦ Imperial Palace

Tokyo is home to the Imperial Palace, home to the emperor of Japan. While you must fill out an application if you want to tour the inside, visitors can openly visit the gardens and admire the beautiful foliage (this is a great place to come when the cherry blossom trees are in full bloom). The gardens are open from 9AM to 4:30PM, with closings a half hour earlier in the winter and a half hour later in the summer (subject to change). You can easily access the Imperial Palace gardens by metro.

♦ Meiji Jingu

If you’re looking for an escape from the thriving city life, consider making a stop of Meiji Jingu. This shrine is a dedication to Emperor Meiji, the first emperor of modern-day Japan, and his wife Empress Shoken. There is a peaceful walking path you can take to get to the shrine, which is a great way to spend time outdoors and get in some light exercise during your vacation. There is also a small exhibition where you can view some of the Emperor’s personal assets. A relaxing forest surrounds the main complex of shrines, making for a very relaxing getaway.
