It’s pink, it’s white, it’s a visual delight. But because ‘hanami’ (or, cherry blossom watching) is so understandably popular, the best hotels and experiences tend to disappear as quickly as the petals themselves. Families are securing their spots beneath the boughs over spring break now to avoid disappointment. This trip covers all the best parts of Japan: sumo, shinobi, ramen, and bamboo groves – and we’ve sculpted it to work perfectly for families.
