Many of you are familiar with the festivities during cherry blossom season, but did you know that autumn is very much celebrated in Japan? For the Japanese, autumn is considered a beautiful—and underrated—season, and they pay reverence to the changing colour of the leaves (called "koyo") by immersing themselves in nature. This November, Tatler Travel, in collaboration with Japan Airlines, encapsulates the essence of the season with a highly-curated travel experience that takes you to the best places to enjoy the ephemeral autumn foliage as well as taste the unique flavour of fall.
Autumn On A Plate

Join us for an exclusive culinary journey in Japan centred on celebrating the season and the country's natural bounty. This 4-day, 3-night trip begins with a smooth flight aboard Japan Airlines. Upon arrival in Tokyo, guests will check into Hoshinoya Tokyo and indulge in off-menu experiences at acclaimed restaurants Inua and Narisawa. Both restaurants will serve special tasting menus and exclusive experiences created only for Tatler Travel.
We then make our way to the resort town of Karuizawa, known for its beautiful fall foliage. Our home for the weekend is the newly opened Shishi-Iwa House, an intimate retreat designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect, Shigeru Ban.
