    Reply from: The Dragon Trip
    Hey, thank you for sharing your thoughts about your recent trip with us. As Japan is full of highlights, it was a challenge for us to visit as many as possible in the 11 days. We hoped to have found the perfect balance between sightseeing, adventure, transportation and relaxation. If you have any further thoughts on why the trip is too concentrated, we're curious to hear more about your suggestions for improving the experience. Please feel free to contact us at info@thedragontrip.com to discuss this further.

    Irene

    Asked on September 18th, 2025

    is it possible to upgrade to 4 star hotels? Also, what is the typical size of this group. I am looking for less than 10 people.

    Accommodation
    Group size
    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten September 2025

      The hotels are are clean, comfortable, and well located. Whilst they are listed as 3*, in Japan they have a high standard and these can feel more like 4* hotels. The group size can vary for each departure date, but the maximum group size is around 14 people. However, looking at the group sizes in 2025 they were smaller in size: - 17-March-25 - we had a group of 7 - 31-March-25 - we had a group of 5. Travelling in April (peak season) we saw larger groups. Whilst we can't guarantee a specific group size, you do tend to see smaller groups on this tour outside of the peak seasons, which is nice.

  • J

    Joel

    Asked on September 2nd, 2025

    How much is needed to reserve the tour, and when would the payment be due? Is it possible to book it now and pay the balance after September 26, is it possible?

    Payments
    Price / Availability
    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten September 2025

      We require a 10% deposit with the remaining amount due 70 days before your trip departure date. It's possible to set up an instalment plan so that you can pay back the trip on a monthly basis.

    • J

      Joel

      TravelerWritten September 2025

      We are planning to go this November 2025. That's why we are asking if possible to pay the balance due after September 26th, 2025

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten September 2025

      For the 3rd November 2025 departure, we would need full payment because it's less than 70 days until departure. We need the funds to make booking arrangements. If you need to wait until 26th September to pay, you can wait, but we can't guarantee you a space on the trip without full payment.

    Price / Availability
    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten August 2025

      We're based in the UK, but have offices internationally. The prices advertised on TourRadar are retail rates. You can contact us through this booking portal. We would need to check availability for the 15th September 2025 trip.

  • J

    Jade

    Asked on July 16th, 2025

    Can you please confirm what types of hotels would be booked on this tour? Can you confirm if they will be actual hotels and NOT hostels?

    Accommodation
    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten July 2025

      For the 11-day Japan Plus Tour, the standard accommodation is 3* hotels throughout, plus 1 night in a traditional style Japanese Tatami Mat room. We do not use hostels for this tour.

    • J

      Jade

      TravelerWritten July 2025

      I thought it was 4 star hotels though? That is what the title says

    • J

      Jade

      TravelerWritten July 2025

      Under the 'what's included' section in the accommodations list, you list '3 and 4 star hotels'

    • J

      Jade

      TravelerWritten July 2025

      Can you give me an example of one of the 3 star hotels you book? So I can look it up on my end. That might be a deal breaker because my clients want 4 star hotels.

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten July 2025

      Tokyo: The Knot Tokyo Shinjuku, Hakone: Susukinohara Ichinoyu, Kyoto: M's Hotel Gojo, Hiroshima: En Hotel Hiroshima, Osaka: Tokyu Stay Osaka Hommachi. 4-star accommodation in Japan would be considerably more expensive than the trip price we're offering.

    • J

      Jade

      TravelerWritten August 2025

      My client is still interested in this tour. However, i have a question about the exclusions on the tour. Under the insurance part, it says travel insurance is not included but that they need the insurance. Is that true? How does that work? How can they purchase insurance?

    • J

      Jade

      TravelerWritten August 2025

      Is it required though?

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten August 2025

      Yes, a basic level of travel insurance is a requirement to join one of our trips. This is so you're covered for any emergency situations that might occur i.e. health related, loss of luggage, cancelled flight etc... You will need to bring proof of your travel insurance with you when you join the trip on Day-1.

    • J

      Jade

      TravelerWritten August 2025

      Can my client use the travel insurance that comes with their Credit Card?

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten August 2025

      As long as your clients have some level of travel insurance they're covered for, then we can accept them onto the trip. They will need to bring the proof of travel insurance with them on arrival to show the adventure leader. If they already have travel insurance through a credit card provider, then this would be accepted.

    Grace

    Asked on July 13th, 2025

    Will that be a problem? I know there are private onsens for people to enjoy on their own for those with tattoos, but I just don't want to be put in a position where that option isn't available to me if I'm not allowed into the one that's scheduled on this trip.

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten July 2025

      The onsen we visit during the trip in Hakone is a private onsen experience, so you'll be allowed to go in with your tattoos.

    Ron

    Asked on June 6th, 2025

    Can I find more information about this tour? I'm not sure if you have a similar tour that includes one more day in Osaka.

    Tour Details
    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten June 2025

      There's still availability for 2 people to join the trip departing on the 30th March 2026. The other trip we have available is the 13-Day Japan Tour: Tokyo, Mount Fuji, Kyoto, Nara, Osaka & Beyond. Both the 11-Day and 13-Day trip spend just 2 days in Osaka. If needed, we can book you an additional night in Osaka for the end of the trip or pre-nights accommodation in Tokyo.

    Asked on May 13th, 2025

    Price / Availability

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten May 2025

      I'll check if we have anything available, however, I think it's very unlikely at this stage. Additionally, our tours typically start in Tokyo and finish in Osaka.

      how much would it be?

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten April 2025

      Private departures are typically at least 35% more expensive than joining an existing group tour. The minimum price per person would be 6750 USD. However, we would need to submit a request with our Japan team and the price can be higher.

      Septt 7th would be better for us but we would be willing to join a very small tour with others. we would also need pre nights

      The only available departure date for a group trip in September 2025 is the 15th. The maximum group size for this trip is 17 people. We currently have 8 guests booked onto this date already. How many additional pre-nights would you need?
