Experience the spectacular wildlife of Japan on one of Adventure Life's 4 Wildlife Viewing Tours in 2025 and 2026. From majestic mountains to stunning coastlines, Japan is a land of diverse landscapes and unique flora and fauna. Encounter native animals such as Japanese macaques, sika deer, foxes, black bears, wild boars, and various species of birds in their natural habitat. Get up close with dolphins off the coastline or visit one of Japan's many national parks for a chance to catch a glimpse of snow monkeys in winter or an eagle soaring above. Our wildlife viewing tours start at $11,270, taking you through multiple regions over a period ranging from 14 to 25 days.
