Mitsui Ocean Fuiji - Cruise Destinations

The Mitsui Ocean Fuji offers an exceptional and culturally immersive cruising experience focused exclusively on the captivating coastlines and inland beauty of Japan. As the flagship vessel of the newly launched Mitsui Ocean Cruises, the ship specializes in elegant Japan-centric voyages that typically range from 5 to 12 days in duration, striking the perfect balance between discovery, comfort, and authentic local engagement.

Initial itineraries, running through January 8, 2025, featured six distinct inaugural cruises departing from key domestic ports such as Tokyo, Yokohama, Kobe, Nagoya, and other major regional gateways. These sailings are carefully crafted to showcase the country’s diverse geography, from the geothermal wonders of Beppu and the spiritual heartland of Shingu, to the cultural hubs of Kochi, Kagoshima, Takamatsu, and Hiroshima—each with its own unique charm and historical significance.

What sets these itineraries apart is their deep integration with Japan’s seasonal festivals and local traditions. Guests can time their journeys with unforgettable cultural events such as the Nebuta Festival in Aomori, Bon Odori celebrations, and coastal fireworks displays that illuminate the summer sky. Many cruises are thoughtfully scheduled to align with these events, creating opportunities for rich cultural immersion. Select voyages also include one-way routes and international side trips to South Korea’s Jeju Island or Busan, adding further variety for seasoned travelers.

Onboard, the experience is fully inclusive, covering Wi‑Fi, gratuities, premium beverages, and one expertly guided shore excursion in each port, often led by English-speaking guides. Emphasis is placed on celebrating Japanese culture both onboard and ashore—through authentic regional cuisine, traditional performances, and insightful enrichment programs that bring Japan’s ancient and modern traditions to life.

Whether you're discovering hidden fishing villages, wandering ancient pilgrimage routes, or exploring castle towns and contemporary art islands, a voyage aboard Mitsui Ocean Fuji offers a seamless blend of luxury, discovery, and local connection—all set against the backdrop of Japan’s stunning maritime scenery.
