  • E

    Ellen

    Asked on August 21st, 2026

    What are the day-to-day transportation options? How will we be getting to each destination for every day in the itinerary? Will there be a tour guide with us throughout the entire process?

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • The Dragon TripOperator•Written August 2026

      We use public transportation throughout. Within the cities/destinations we visit, this is by using the metro and bus, and walking. To travel between cities/destinations, we use trains including the bullet train. The Adventure Leader (guide) will be with the group for majority of the tour. Exceptions to this are during free-time or independent activities, where they may not join you, but will still be available if there are any issues that arise.

    • E

      Ellen

      Traveler•Written August 2026

      Will the guide be with the travellers during the transfers as well? From the hotel to the excursions?

      Yes the guide will be with the travellers during all transportation.

    Trevor

    Asked on August 7th, 2026

    Are the dorm rooms for mixed gender or for separate male and female genders ? I am a fit healthy 73 year old female who is adventurous and sociable. I often stay in back packer accommodation. I have visited Japan previously. Would I be able to join such a tour ?

    Accommodation
    Age Range
    • The Dragon TripOperator•Written August 2026

      Due to age guidelines set by our local partners and operators, we're unfortunately unable to accommodate your participation on our standard 13-Day Japan Tour. However, we do have a great alternative tour option that may be a much better fit. We'd recommend our Japan Plus 11-Day Culture Tour: Golden Route & Beyond Tour which is very popular with travellers looking for a similar style of adventure but with a slightly different group dynamic. This tour also benefits from upgraded accommodation, along with a wide range of enhanced inclusions and activities.

  • K

    Kathleen

    Asked on July 20th, 2026

    I'm recommending this tour to our mutual travellers. They're a group of 6-8 seniors who are travelling from Canada and would like a fully guided experience including pickup from the airport. Additionally, they'd like to know if your team can help with pricing out flights from Toronto to the Japan.

    Group size
    • The Dragon TripOperator•Written July 2026

      May I please kindly ask the ages of the travellers, just to make sure this specific tour is well suited to them?

      We don't arrange pre-booked airport transfers for Japan. However, we're more than happy to provide detailed information on the transfer options available once you arrive in Japan.

      As for flights, we're unfortunately unable to price or book these for you. However, we'd be more than happy to advise on which flights work best around your chosen tour dates.

  • E

    Emma

    Asked on June 23rd, 2026

    Is this tour suitable for a couple in their 70s? One traveler uses a cane as a mobility aid and we wanted to make sure the trip won't be too difficult for her to navigate.

    Age Range
    Travel Support
    • The Dragon TripOperator•Written June 2026

      This trip can accommodate guests aged 18-75 and uses hotels as the standard accommodation along with mainly public transport. Japan is generally known for not having the best accessibility. There can be quite a lot of walking on this trip, but if there's ever a day when you want to sit something out, you're more than welcome to do so. However, when ever there is a group activity you'll be attending we do expect all guests to be able to keep up since we have a strict schedule to stick to.

    Elizabeth

    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 TripOperator•Written 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 TripOperator•Written 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

      Traveler•Written 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 TripOperator•Written 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 TripOperator•Written 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 TripOperator•Written 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

      Traveler•Written July 2025

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

    • J

      Jade

      Traveler•Written July 2025

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

    • J

      Jade

      Traveler•Written 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 TripOperator•Written 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.

      Jade

      Traveler•Written 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

      Traveler•Written August 2025

      Is it required though?

    • The Dragon TripOperator•Written 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.

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

    • The Dragon TripOperator•Written 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.

    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.

      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.
