    • TruTravelsOperator•Written July 2026

      Yes, Japan has readily available trains that connect the airport to locations right throughout Tokyo. Our starting location for our Japan tours is Grids Ueno. We are a youth focused tour so we don't offer discounts to senior citizens as we have a age cap of 45 years on this trip.

  • R

    Ryan

    Asked on March 12th, 2026

    Age listed is 18-39. Why is this? We are both healthy, active 70 year olds. So we cannot sign up?? Please clarify

    Age Range
    • TruTravelsOperator•Written March 2026

      Our Japan trips are designed specifically for travellers aged 18–39, as the accommodation style, pace of the itinerary, and many of the included activities are tailored towards a younger travel style. For that reason, we do keep the age range consistent across the group.

  • R

    Raymond

    Asked on February 9th, 2026

    What is the group size maximum for the Legend of Japan trip? Could you say if the group is a good mix of genders and ages? For example, I don't want to be the only male in a group entirely made of females. Could you say what the age range is for this group? Same concern above.. I don't want to be significantly older that the rest of the group.

    Age Range
    Group size
    • TruTravelsOperator•Written February 2026

      We can take a maximum of 16 guests on this tour. At this stage there are 15 booked on, so only one space left on this departure.

      Of the 15 guests, 11 are female, four are male. Everyone is in their 20s or 30s. The youngest being 23 and the oldest at 37. 10 of them are in their 20s, the other five are in their 30s.
