FAQ
Frequently asked questions - Japan tours
What should I do in Japan?
Japan is a beautiful destination with so much to do. From the heights of Tokyo Tower in buzzing Tokyo, to the historical Golden Pavilion in Kyoto, Japan has attractions and experiences for everyone. On our bucket list tours and cruises, you can step foot of Mount Fuji, immerse in the buzz of Osaka’s Dotonbori district, visit Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park and so much more.
When is the best time to go to Japan?
Thanks to our huge range of Japan deals, you can choose the time of year to travel that best suits you! However, we’ve found popular times to visit Japan are generally from September through November to see the changing Autumn colours, and during spring from March to May, to catch the famous cherry blossom season.
Do TripADeal holiday tours to Japan include flights?
All TripADeal packages to Japan include return flights from select capital cities including Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. For departures from Adelaide and Perth, please refer to the checkout on each deal page, or talk to one of our friendly team to learn more.
Do the Japan tour deals include experiencing the bullet train?
Famous for their speed and efficiency, a ride on a bullet train (Shinkansen) is included in some of our tours. For those that don’t include a ride on the train, there are often days at leisure in major cities where you can arrange this for yourself, with the help of your guide.
Can I go to Japan Disneyland or Universal Studios on the TripADeal tours?
Most of our Japan tours include free time/free days where you can choose to explore however you wish. This is a great opportunity to book a ticket to “The Happiest Place on Earth”.
What is the weather like in Japan?
Japan is a country with various climates from North to South, but all enjoy four seasons. Spring Spring has mild days and cold nights, with temperatures ranging from 2°- 24°C. Summer Summer starts with higher rainfall in June, followed by a humid July and August. Daily temperatures range 16°-30°C. Autumn Autumn has mild days with cooler nights and daily temperatures ranging from 7°- 27°C. Winter Winter is cold and dry, with snow in the north. Daily temperatures ranging from 6°- 20°C.
What type of clothes should I pack for Japan tours?
It largely depends on when you are travelling, however here’s a guide based on seasons:
Spring (Mar-May) To enjoy the mild days and cool nights, pack layers from t-shirts up to knitwear and/or a jacket. Summer (Jun-Aug) Breathable fabrics work best in the humid Japanese summers. Shorts and sundresses are acceptable, except in some shrines and temples. Autumn (Sep-Nov) Pack layers at the start of the season to prepare for mild days and cool nights. Towards the end of autumn, be sure to have a coat and scarf handy. Winter(Dec -Feb) Be sure to pack warm knitwear and a good coat to stay warm during the Japanese winter, especially in northern locations.
Is there a lot of time spent in transit?
In an effort to tick off Japan’s bucket list locations, we use modern buses, bullet trains and ferries to transport you in comfort and safety. On long travel days, we encourage you to use this time to relax and refresh between our busy tour days. Our scheduled stops also include excellent food and shopping options, so even in-transit, you’re experiencing authentic Japan.
What can I expect from the Japanese hotels on tour?
We work hard to find the best accommodation available for our tours with excellent service provided. Please note, Japanese hotel rooms are generally more compact than western hotels, but are always comfortable and impeccably clean.
Do I need a tourist visa for Japan?
Australian citizens, residents and permanent visa holders do not need a visa for Japan for stays less than 90 days, and can just enter normally on arrival. For more details on visas and travel to Japan for Australians, we recommend checking the Smartraveller website.
What's the time zone in Japan?
In Japan, the whole country is on one time zone, GMT +9. Japan is 2 hours behind Sydney, so for example, 10am in Sydney is 8am in Japan. As the time zones between Japan and Australia are very closely aligned, any jet lag from your trip to Japan will likely be minimal!
What currency do I need in Japan?
Japan’s currency is the Yen, with a rough exchange rate of 1 AUD to 100 Yen (100 AUD = 10,000 Yen). Japan has a comprehensive ATM system, so you can easily withdraw Yen using an Australian bank card or travel card when there. You can also convert AUD to JPY at many currency exchange offices and banks.
What forms of payment are accepted on tour?
In Japan, cash is the most widely accepted form of payment. Card facilities are available on some tours, but it’s always a good idea to carry a mix of cash and card. We recommend a minimum of AUD$100-150 per day spending money based on our experience and feedback from customers.
Japan is not a tipping culture - why do TripADeal tours recommend tipping?
We appreciate tipping is not customary in a hospitality setting in Japan, however it is common practice to tip tour guides, leaders and/or drivers. This is only a recommendation, it is not mandatory.
Should I get a travel sim for Japan?
If you require full connectivity while on tour, we recommend getting a travel sim or activating a roaming package on your phone prior to departing Australia (most major Australian networks allow you to activate international roaming that covers you in Japan). If you don’t have a travel sim or roaming activated however, it is possible to connect to networks while in Japan, as there is free Wi-Fi on public transport, in most major shopping centres and at hotels.
What power plug do I need for Japan?
Japan uses the Type A and B plug. We recommend travelling with a travel adaptor - you can buy one at home before your trip, at the airport, or at many convenience stores when you land in Japan.
