Four Seasons has added three new journeys to its growing collection of curated itineraries: a nine-day sweep of Japan's big three cities, an 11-day Thailand trip stretching from Bangkok to Koh Samui, and a seven-day deep dive into the Hawaiian island of Lanai. Each one chains together stays at several Four Seasons properties with a single point of contact handling the logistics, so guests move between hotels without re-planning anything mid-trip.

The Japan itinerary, called The Art of Old & New, links Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. Its standout perk is access to 1F at Toyosu Fish Market — the behind-the-scenes floor where the city's top sushi chefs bid on the day's catch, a space normally off-limits to visitors. That rolls straight into a sushi-making session with a chef using fish bought hours earlier. Kyoto adds a cultural ambassador who steers guests away from the main tourist trails, while Osaka focuses on the city's food heritage with local guides.

Stories & Stillness in Thailand runs 11 days across Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Koh Samui. Guests visit Naenna Studio to meet the mother-daughter team keeping northern Thai textile traditions alive, blend and bottle a personal spirit at Bangkok's BKK Social Club, and finish with a Secret Night Spa Ritual on a private stretch of Koh Samui coastline after dark.

The Lanai itinerary, Two Worlds One Island, splits the week between the island's two Four Seasons resorts. It starts at Four Seasons Resort Lanai with a catamaran sail and cultural storytelling from a guide named Tuma, then shifts inland to Sensei Lanai, the wellness-focused property, where the programme includes forest bathing and private spa rituals in the mountain forests.

These three join existing journeys in Bali (8 days), Spain (Madrid and Mallorca, 8 days) and Mexico (Mexico City to Naviva, 10 days). All are bookable via the Four Seasons website, with details, transfers and experiences coordinated by the brand's teams rather than a third-party operator.

Why it matters: luxury travellers increasingly want multi-stop trips without the admin, and this format bundles high-end hotels with access that's genuinely hard to arrange solo — like a Toyosu market floor visit or a nighttime spa takeover. It's aimed at people who'd rather pay for seamularity and insider doors than plan five bookings themselves, and the itineraries work as templates even if you'd tweak the route. If you're already splashing on Four Seasons stays, chaining them under one itinerary removes the usual friction of a multi-city holiday.
