Terms and conditions and all that stuff

We can organise a trip to suit your  budget, interests and duration.
For first timers or seasoned Japanophiles, we can almost guarantee you will see things
you never imagined or knew about


The following information relates to organised escorted tours, including your own
YOUR JOURNEY OUR DESIGN - if we are escorting you.

INCLUDED : accom (twin share base), dinners, most breakfast (when not on the run),
basic admissions to the attractions, all the transport  (buses, taxis , ferries, and rail fares)

EXCLUDED : single room surcharge, drinks, lunches and some breakfast (when on the run),
extra admissions to the attractions, (this happens occasionally ), transport to and from the airports.

Single Room surcharge is available on most tours, where available.

Japan Rail Pass is no longer viable, its a rip off. We prefer pay as we go. Its cheaper and better.
If you are un-escorted, we will give you a piece of paper in Japanese and English
to take to a convenient railway station office  to ensure you can get ALL your required rail bookings
done in one go, which saves hassles later.
Ticket buying can be time consuming (big queues) and complicated (weird machines),
but we make it foolproof even if we aren't there.

Extras and accounting
 On escorted trips, we run an account for each person / couple and
mostly its for drinks, surcharges and misc extras.
We will tell you each day how much you spent the night before,
and generally the drink prices are very modest 
At the end of the tour, will give it you an account
and you can use any leftover yen towards settling it
and / or simply transfer the balance upon your return.
