    Katherine

    Asked on January 19th, 2026

    What would happen if I can't get my visa?

    Visa
    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten January 2026

      You will need to organise your visa yourself and in advance. Depending on your nationality you may have different requirements for the application. We aren't experts in visa, so if you have any concerns about your eligibility for a visa, we'd recommend you organise this and then you can book onto our tour with confidence.

  • A

    Amy

    Asked on December 31st, 2025

    Can an age range exception be made? I am in my 70s and physically fit for the tour.

    Age Range
    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten January 2026

      We set an age range to make sure the style, pace, and overall vibe of our group tours stays consistent for everyone. Our trips are designed specifically for travellers aged 18–40s, which is why we have a maximum age limit of 49. This isn't based on attitude, fitness or ability. It's simply about maintaining the trip style and group dynamic that our travellers come expecting.

  • T

    Taylor

    Asked on December 28th, 2025

    Would like a pre authorization to aid with VISA application. Is this possible? Looking to book the Japan trip for February the 3rd

    Visa
    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten December 2025

      With regards to your visa, you will need to organise this yourself and in advance, it's pretty easy to do. Depending on your nationality you may have different requirements for the application. You can find information from the official government website. Unfortunately we aren't experts in visa, so it's always best to check with your local embassy or consulate before travelling

      Our tours are for over 18's only, however, we can allow 17 year olds to join in certain destinations with a signed parental consent form. Unfortunately, as your children are younger than the allowed age, we will not be able to get them booked on a trip at this time. However, we'd absolutely love to have them join one of our tours once they turn 18.

    Tracy

    Asked on October 6th, 2025

    Is it possible have own double room?

    Accommodation
    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten October 2025

      For a private room it would cost an extra $1300 USD per person. Not possible to have a private room in Hakone, Nagano and Koyasan as traditional Ryokan and Buddhist temple shared is part of the experience. A private room is also not available during Cherry Blossom Season (March-April).

      Tracy

      Is the cost $1300 USD per person for a shared room with my travel mate?

      Tracy

      TravelerWritten October 2025

      I'm 53 next year, may I join this trip?

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten October 2025

      The total additional cost is $600, split between 2 is $300 per person.

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten October 2025

      Most people are aged 18 to 40, but we regularly have people in their 40's and 50's travel with us. As long as you have an appetite for adventure and are happy bonding with people of all backgrounds, you'll fit in perfectly!

      Daniela

      TravelerWritten September 2025

      Which dates are best to see fall foliage in Japan?

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten September 2025

      The best time to catch the autumn foliage in Japan is during the fall months, from September to November. November is usually perfect, as the colours move down to central and southern Japan, with Tokyo and Kyoto peaking around mid to late November.
