If you have never been to Japan before and you are looking for a tour that will give you a taste of the country, this is the tour for you. I had an amazing time, thanks to our wonderful guide Geoffrey. Be prepared for a lot of walking and a few early morning starts as this is a discovery tour!

Excellent holiday. Andy our guide was friendly, very knowledgeable & managed the itinerary perfectly. The holiday was "full on" with lots of moving but we were fully aware of this from the itinerary it was all handled very smoothly.

Had a fantastic trip - Dean our guide was knowledgeable and approachable and thoroughly good company. The group of sixteen got on well together. The itinerary was excellent with a good balance of guided activities and free time. We covered a lot of ground from city to city but hardly scraped the surface of such a wonderful country - so much more to see and do!

Excellent itinerary !!!! The tour took us to so many interesting places…Mount Fuji and Hiroshima were the highlights for us. We also visited some beautiful shrines and temples and interesting markets. The “be my guest” lunches and dinner experiences were fantastic. We opted to join in the “optional experiences” (tea experience in Kyoto, and Japanese Garden experience in Hiroshima) and were very happy we did as they gave an added extra feeling for Japanese culture. There is plenty of free time in the evenings to go out and do some shopping. We had an amazing guide (Akiko) who went out of her way to make our experience in Japan the best we have ever done with Trafalgar. The hotels were very nice and centrally located , close to shopping , markets, resultants and subway stations. Overall, a fantastic tour !!!!

This was an excellent tour. Our tour guide, AKO, was organised, attentive and lively. She was accommodating to everyone on the tour, providing restaurant recommendations to travellers with Coeliac disease and organising small trips for travellers who had particular sites that they wanted to visit that were not part of the tour. She was the best tour guide that we have ever had!

My family and I really enjoyed our trip to Japan. We were able to visit Japan's biggest cities thanks to this tour in a short time. This trip was special since we were celebrating a few milestones. However, we would have liked to spend 1 or 2 extra days in Tokyo to explore other prefectures. We especially appreciated all activities, such as the drumming lessons, the okonomiyaki cooking class and the Momiji Manju cake making. We highly liked our day in Nara when we visited a pottery shop (where we were able to interact with artisans) , ate a homemade traditional Japanese lunch and visited a tea plantation. We strongly recommend this tour.

Japan Group Tours

No matter what your particular travel style might be, there is bound to be a Japan group tour to suit you.

  • City Sightseeing with a group in Tokyo: On a group tour of Tokyo, travel around the vibrant Harajuku district, the Meiji Shrine, and more with an expert local guide. Tokyo is a megalopolis with many facets and layers to it. With a guide by your side, you will get to visit the spots that many solo foreign travelers rarely venture. 
  • Explore religious sites on a Kyoto group tourThere are plenty of shrines, temples, and UNESCO heritage sites in Kyoto, such as the ancient Nijo Castle. Japan group tours usually cover a lot of religious sites in the kyoto. And the best part is group tour parties can skip queues at some popular attractions.
  • Relax at a hot spring with your group in HakoneThe hot spring culture and onsen tradition in Japan goes centuries back. One of the best places to have an onsen experience is Hakone. Travel around the 17 different hot springs in the area, and relax with your traveling companions. Once you are all rejuvenated, head to the local Shinto temple, or get your fill of art at the Hakone Open Air Museum.

Japan group tours based on a budget

  • Luxury group tours in Japan: Take the benefits of having a tour guide specific to your group, get unique insights into the Japanese way of life and recommendations for places to see and food to try. Get on an aerial tram ride at Mount Fuji or hop on a ferry to Miyajima Island, a luxury group tour in Japan will show you the best the country has to offer.
  • Budget group tours in Japan: If you are on a tighter budget in the notoriously expensive Japan, a budget group tour can be a great way to save up some money. Stay in affordable hotels and traditional ryokans inns, or share rooms with your fellow group travelers, split bills with your group in every step of your tour of Japan. Go on optional excursions like the Hakone Onsens and benefit from a reduced group rate.

Travel experience and benefits of group tours in Japan

  • Head up to the Kamikochi National Park and explore the mountains, forests, and rivers in a safer, group setting.
  • Accommodation and transport costs in Japan can add up when traveling solo in Japan. So a group tour is a good way to save money.
  • If you opt for a private group tour around Japan, you can control the pace of your adventure, without having to organize it yourself completely.

Tips when doing group tours in Japan

  • If you want to see Japan’s famous cherry blossoms in your group tour, book your trip between March and May.
  • Tipping is considered rude in Japan. So, do not be surprised if your tip is refused. If you want to give your tour guide or driver a token of appreciation, bring a small gift from your home country instead.
  • Get the meeting points or accommodation for your group tours written in Japanese. If you are trying to find it again after spending some free time exploring, you can simply pass the address to a taxi driver.
