I am arranging another tour to Japan in January. It will be for about 10 nights and will cost around $2500(will be confirmed) ex Cairns inc Airfares, Accommodation, Buses, Taxis, Train Passes, Entry Tickets etc. you will need extra money for Food, Piss, and prezzies for the Wife! Food is a little cheaper in Japan and yes they do have cooked and western food! grog is about 1/2 the price.

I speak Japanese, and got to Japan many times a year, and take groups over every year. I am not a professional tour guide; I do this because I like Japan and Cars.

Tour will be full on. No lazing by the pool, basking in the sun.

Itinerary is yet to be confirmed but will go something like this,

Tokyo Auto Salon

Toyota Factory Tour

Toyota Automotive Museum (not just Toyotas have many exsotics, vintage, rare from all over the world)

Toyota technology Museum

Nagoya Motor Auction

Mazda Museum and Factory Tour

Hiroshima Piece Park and Miyajima Island

Yamato Battleship Museum (26mtr long model of the biggest battle ship here)

Kyoto (see a bit of Japanese culture)

Tokyo Fish Markets (sushi for breakfast if you are game)

Honda Motegi Race track and Museum and Go Cart Racing

500+ Private Car Museum (they even have a Factory 13b powered hj Expensive Daewoo Mazda road pacer )

Tokyo Tour inc Tokyo Tower and Toyota Automotive theme park

If you are interested PM me and I will go thorugh it with you.

I should have given more details about tokyo atuo salon for those that havent heard about it. Bacily it is the Performance Car and Parts show of Japan. All the tuning houses are there, and so are some pretty wild cars.

I really get a kick out of doing it. Many people have a very differant idea of Japan in thier minds. We go to see alot of car stuff, but also see Japanese Culture as well. Food is Great and if ya like dinking it is about half the price over there, and can buy it anywhere. Its sort of like a 10 day car show.

Well not good news, rang Subaru Factory today and the Vistor Centre will be closed January to March, so no Subaru Factory tour. There will be the Suabru Display at the Tokyo Auto Salon I am sure, and they have the Subaru drivers come in for interveiws etc.
