    What is additional cost for single supplement?

    Accommodation
    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • Tourist JourneyOperatorWritten April 2025

      The additional cost depends on the hotel level you choose during the booking process. Please select your preferred hotel level (standard, boutique or superior) to see the prices of every choice.

      Darren

      TravelerWritten May 2025

      So I'd be travelling with different groups for the whole tour?

    • D

      Darren

      TravelerWritten May 2025

      How does that work with the group if we're all in different hotels? Does the guide go to all the 2 hotels to collect group members?

    • Tourist JourneyOperatorWritten May 2025

      The tours start from centralized locations, not from the hotels. You will need to meet us there to start and end the activities.

    • D

      Darren

      TravelerWritten May 2025

      How often do the groups and guides change?

    • Tourist JourneyOperatorWritten May 2025

      Our packages are a combination of day tours and accommodation. Meaning that even though you might see some familiar faces in some tours, there would be new guides and participants in every tour.

    Carmen

    Asked on November 25th, 2024

    Is there any limit for the luggage carried during the transfers?

    Transport
    • Tourist JourneyOperatorWritten November 2024

      There are no strict limitations on luggage for the transfers during your tour. However, for travel on the Shinkansen (bullet train), there may be an additional cost if your luggage is oversized. For oversized baggage on Shinkansen, the fee is approximately JPY 1,000. Luggage under 160 cm can be stored in an overhead rack or by your feet. Luggage exceeding 250 cm may not be allowed to board.

      Carmen

      TravelerWritten November 2024

      Would it be possible to arrange the domestic flights that may be required as part of the tour, including the flight from South Korea to Japan?

    • Tourist JourneyOperatorWritten November 2024

      We do not handle flight bookings, including domestic flights or international flights such as the one from South Korea to Japan. We recommend contacting a trusted airline or travel agency to arrange these flights.

    Lynda

    Asked on October 30th, 2024

    We want to know if there is a different price for a 2 year old child. Also, if there are 2 adults and the child, will it be double room or triple room?

    Accommodation
    Price / Availability
    • Tourist JourneyOperatorWritten October 2024

      Your child can join the trip for a reduced price if he/she can still sit on the lap of the parents in the bus. You would be staying in a double room with a child bed.

    • L

      Lynda

      TravelerWritten November 2024

      Can we get the cost of both? Traveling in the lap of the parents and having a seat on the bus?

    • Tourist JourneyOperatorWritten November 2024

      If you want your child to have a seat in the bus, she/he would have to pay as an adult. You could select 3 adults during the booking process and see all prices.

    • L

      Lynda

      TravelerWritten November 2024

      Can you share me the price if child travels on the lap of the parents in the bus?

    • Tourist JourneyOperatorWritten November 2024

      We could discount 300 USD from the total price since it would be a child instead of an adult.
