Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our small group format, Japanese visas, luggage forwarding, and dietary preferences.
Bookings & Deposits
How does the βΉ4,999 reservation deposit work?
You can lock in your seat on any departure with a βΉ4,999 deposit. This amount is 100% refundable within 7 days of booking (provided booking occurs at least 30 days prior to departure). The remaining journey balance is due 45 days prior to departure.
Visas & Documentation
How is the Japan visa handled for Indian passport holders?
We provide a comprehensive Visa Support Pack including verified daily itineraries, accommodation certificates, and invitation blueprints compliant with the Japanese Embassy and VFS guidelines. Our team reviews your documentation before submission.
Dining & Lifestyle
I am a vegetarian / have specific dietary preferences. Can I join?
Yes, absolutely. Japan can be challenging for vegetarians due to fish-based dashi broth, but our on-ground Trip Leads speak Japanese and curate vegetarian-safe meals, Kaiseki substitutions, and shojin ryori (Buddhist temple cuisine).
Logistics & Travel
How do we manage luggage on Shinkansen bullet trains?
We utilize Japanβs world-renowned Takuhaibin luggage forwarding service whenever transitioning between major regions. Your main heavy suitcases are delivered directly between hotel lobbies, allowing you to board bullet trains with just a light daypack.
The Beyond Tokyo Way
Why is the group capped strictly at 10 travellers?
Ten travellers is the sweet spot of luxury travel in Japan. It allows our group to dine at authentic 8-to-10 seat counter izakayas, enter private tea master salons in Kyoto, and navigate Shinkansen stations briskly without the chaos of giant tour flags.
Solo Travellers
Can solo travellers join?
Over 40% of our travellers join solo! We pair solo female travellers exclusively with fellow female travellers on a twin-shared basis, or you can opt for a private single room with our single supplement option.
