Top Tokyo Active & Outdoor Classes in 2026

In recent years, the teachings of Zen meditation (zazen) have become increasingly well-known around the world. However, there are surprisingly few places where one can experience authentic zazen. This activity offers a true digital detox and Zen experience—an immersive overnight stay at Shogakuji Temple, a Soto Zen temple nestled deep in the mountains about two hours from Tokyo. Over the course of two days and one night, participants can fully engage in traditional Soto Zen practices surrounded by rich natural beauty. During your stay, you’ll follow the same practices as Zen monks: sitting meditation (zazen), sutra copying (shakyō), and enjoying tenzo ryōri, traditional vegetarian temple cuisine. As an optional feature, you can hand over all digital devices—smartphones, computers, etc.—at check-in to enjoy a complete digital detox experience. Your guide is a local native English speaking guide so you will have no worries of communication.

Encounter the Spirit of Edo in Tokyo’s Fukagawa. Just six minutes from the bustle of Tokyo Station, nd serenity at the venerable Tomioka Hachimangu Shrine. Here, you will witness a sacred Miko dance and immerse yourself in the luxury of experiencing Kabuki, one of Japan’s most celebrated traditional performing arts. The lingering impression is elegantly completed by a seasonal Edo-style dish crafted with masterful skill. A once-in-a-lifetime story of beauty—experienced with all five senses, and with the heart.
