About This Cruise
The 10 Night Japan Explorer is a 10-night round-trip itinerary aboard Princess Cruises Sapphire Princess. You board and return in Tokyo, calling at 10 ports across 2 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Japan (Tokyo, Nagoya, Kobe/Osaka and 3 more), South Korea (Busan), Japan (Hiroshima, Tokyo, Nagasaki), South Korea (Busan) and Japan (Sakaiminato, Aomori, Tokyo).
