Adult Trip to Rural Japan

Takayama Cultural Exchange | November 2–13, 2026 
Fall in Love with Japan
This is not a traditional tour.
The Denver Takayama Sister City Committee invites you to experience Japan through the relationships built over more than sixty years of friendship between Denver and Takayama.
Travel alongside fellow Denver-area participants as you explore historic cities, ride Japan’s famous Shinkansen bullet train, enjoy authentic regional cuisine, and experience the warmth of local hospitality. Most importantly, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of Japan through the unique lens of Denver’s official sister-city partnership.
Whether this is your first visit to Japan or a return journey, this exchange offers cultural access and local connections rarely available through conventional travel programs.
