A trip to Japan on foot: Alps and Nakasendo from Mexico has two parts: the journey itself — the Japanese Alps, Shirakawa-go and the old Nakasendo road between post towns — and the costs that depend on you, such as flights and meals. Wandernow's 11 days / 10 nights trip is $4,729.00 US dollars as a single payment or $5,140.00 US dollars in instalments, per person, in a small Spanish-speaking group.
