Hokkaido Tours     View Tours

Hokkaido tours.

Hokkaido attracts visitors from all over the globe for its pristine natural scenery and snow festivals which are held annually. Hokkaido is the northernmost island of Japan and is also the home to populations of rare species like the red-crowned crane. Hokkaido is the second largest island of the four main islands but has the least developed land. Because it has been able to maintain much of its natural environment, many types of flowers have been allowed to flourish during the warmer months of the year. There broad colors of seasonal flowers attract many travelers throughout the year. Japanese Cherry Blossoms bloom throughout the country from early March to early May with Hokkaido blooming on the late end of the spectrum. Another popular Hokkaido flower is the shibazakura, which has a sensational pink color that spreads out like blankets on the ground, causing it to look like a sea of flowers that wave a spectrum of strong pink. In the summer, lavender viewing is one of the top attractions in Hokkaido. Both public and private lavender fields extend along Furano City, wrapping around the whole hillside that turns into a mass of violet in the peak season from mid-to late July. For those interested in combining their wanderlust with snow festivals, Sapporo has one of the most popular snow festivals in Japan. The Sapporo snow festival takes places annually during the first week of February. Competitions take place during the beginning of the festivities; ice sculptures, mazes, and other icy creations are built for the public to view. Some artists create historical, architectural, or cultural-based sculptures amongst many other types of themes creating a variety of entertainment for everyone. Besides Sapporo’s snow festival, there are also romantic, picturesque sites like the Otaru Canal located just west of Sapporo. The Otaru Canal is especially scenic during the night, especially during winter when path is lit by lanterns made of snow alongside the canal. The water reflects the lit candles, complementing each other and creating a peaceful scene. Please see below for tours that include Hokkaido:

Taman ini adalah sebuah taman yang luas. Letaknya ada di Taito, Tokyo. Sebelum menjadi sebuah taman, dulunya area taman ini merupakan kuil pada masa Shogun Tokugawa. Pada saat tak ada kuil, kemudian dibangunlah taman oleh Kaisar Taisho pada tahun 1924. Mulai sejak itu, barulah kita mengetahui taman yang indah ini sebagai tempat untuk berekreasi dan melihat mekarnya bunga sakura. Selain terkenal dengan taman bunganya, Ueno Park juga ada patung seekor anjing yang diberi nama Hachiko. Pastinya travelers pernah mendengar cerita kesetiaan seekor anjing pada tuannya bukan? Nah, untuk mengenang kisah yang mengharukan itu, diabadikanlah dalam bentuk patung.

tempat ini merupakan sebuah museum modern yang menceritakan perjalanan Toyotomi Hideyoshi, yang merupakan Founder dari Osaka Castle. Toyotomi Hideyoshi dahulu merupakan salah satu jendral Oda Nobunaga. Dia juga dikenal sebagai  seorang Daimyo (tuan tanah) yang mempunyai misi menyatukan Jepang. Keinginan tersebut ternyata dapat diwujudkan oleh Toyotomi Hideyoshi yang akhirnya berhasil menyatukan Jepang setelah membunuh semua musuh Oda Nobunaga. Untuk dapat mengendalikan Jepang dalam satu kekuatan, Hideyoshi telah  menghancurkan banyak kastil yang dibangun di seluruh negeri selama era perang sipil. Ia menyita semua senjata para petani dan juga melarang samurai untuk aktif sebagai petani serta memaksa mereka untuk pindah ke kota-kota benteng. Dia selalu ingin membuat sebuah perbedaan yang jelas antara kelas-kelas sosial, dengan tujuan untuk meningkatkan kontrol pemerintah terhadap rakyat. Pada saat itu untuk pertamakalinya di Jepang diadakan survei tanah dan sensus penduduk. Seiring dengan meluasnya kekuasaan Hideyoshi, Osaka Castle menjadi istana terbesar di Jepang.

Backpacking Japan Travel Guide (BUDGET TIPS • 2024)

Towering mountains and mythological beasts, shiny robots and shinier samurai; Backpacking in Japan is a truly fascinating experience. Over seventy percent of Japan is covered by towering volcanic peaks and snow-capped summits, and these mountains, which still hold important religious and cultural significance, provide nothing short of a paradise for budding adventure junkies.

Whilst backpacking in Japan, I never once felt threatened, and I was rarely frustrated. This is such an amazing country.

The main challenge in Japan is trying not to spend too much money; it’s not a cheap country to travel in. I managed to spend an average of $30 a day over a three-week trip; I doubt it could be done for less, but there are a few travel hacks to backpack Japan on a budget and experience the country cheaply. There’s even one way you can travel around Japan for free!

I’ve written this Japan travel guide so that I can share my insider knowledge with you. I’ll show you how to travel in Japan cheaply and where you absolutely need to go. By the end of this guide, you’ll be armed with more tools than ninja assassin and will have everything that you need to have an amazing time in this country!

Why Go Backpacking in Japan?

For me, Japan has always been the land of the Samurai. I have long admired the staunch bravery of the Samurai and the sheer tenacity of the Imperial Army during World War II. The wonderful thing about Japan is the painless mix of traditional feudal scenes with that of a buzzing, technological beast of a country.

Every area you travel to in Japan is wildly unique yet still, distinctly (oh, so distinctly) Japanese. The cities in Japan are unlike any other; they crackle and pop with energy. Tokyo is a futuristic wonderland of gliding transport, soaring buildings, and bright lights.

Just a short way from Tokyo lies the ancient city of Kyoto and the first Japanese capital of Nara. In Kyoto, Geishas still patrol the streets in traditional dress, temples lie hidden in tranquil bamboo forests and it feels as though you may encounter a band of marauding Samurai at any moment.

In the North, you’ll find Sapporo and many other ski resort towns, and to the South of the main island is Okinawa, a tropical paradise with white sand beaches.

Throughout Japan, you’ll find dense jungles, craggy mountains, and sparkling lakes, thanks to Japan’s many National Parks . As well to the culture, many people visit Japan to see its sparse variety of landscapes and biodiversities.

Whether you are after a chilled day walk or a harder, multi-day, trek; backpacking in Japan has plenty to offer; I never got a chance to hit up any of Japan’s hiking trails although I will be sure to have a crack at Mt. Fuji upon my return!

Best Travel Itineraries for Backpacking Japan

Places to visit in japan, top things to do in japan, backpacker accommodation in japan, japan backpacking costs, best time to travel to japan, staying safe in japan, how to get into japan, how to get around japan, working in japan, culture in japan, some unique experiences in japan, faqs about backpacking japan, final advice before visiting japan.

Honestly, there is so much to do and see in Japan. You can easily spend weeks in Japan, or even months, exploring the massive Tokyo and barely scratch the surface.

If you have the time (and money) I suggest spending extra time staying in Tokyo and Kyoto . If you don’t have the time, then check out these two awesome itineraries, which will give you some solid exposure to beautiful Japan.

3-Week Itinerary for Backpacking Japan: Mountains and the Central Highlights

This is the perfect itinerary if you have 2-4 weeks in Japan to explore. Start off the adventure in Tokyo . I recommend staying here for 5 days at a minimum. Like I said above, you can spend weeks in Tokyo and barely scratch the surface, but it is an expensive city. It’s also a neat place to do day trips from to nearby places such as staying in Yokohama .

Get the Odakyu express train (2x hours) from Odakyu station to Odawara (the base town of Hakone ). If you buy the Hakone Freepass and combine it with your normal ticket fare you can save a bunch of money.

Hakone boasts stunning views of the iconic volcano Mount Fuji! Though only on a clear day, so make sure you plan your trip to Hakone accordingly. Consider booking a stay in a traditional Hakone ryokan with mountain views to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of the region.

Next, take a train to Shinjuku, followed then by a highway bus to Matsumoto , which is famous for its old original 16th-century castle Matsumoto, commonly known as Crow Castle.

Next, head to the Japanese Alps , which has some of the best skiing in the world! That said, you won’t be here for the winter season if you are timing your Japan trip with cherry blossom or trekking season. The Alps offer hiking, canyoning, mountain biking, and kayaking in the summertime.

Then, head to Shirakawa and Takayama . Shirakawa is a remote mountain town and is also a UNESCO world heritage site, famous for its traditional gassho-zukuri farmhouses, some of which are more than 250 years old. Takayama makes for a great day trip.

Finally, head to Osaka and Kyoto to finish up this amazing trip! The two cities are neighbours but couldn’t carry more different vibes if they tried. Visiting Osaka gives you a more laidback Japan – eccentric nightlife, quirky dialects, and less-reserved locals (within reason). You’d want to spend at least 4-5 days stay in Osaka and Kyoto.

2-Week Itinerary for Backpacking Japan: The Southern Highlights and Delights

For this itinerary, you will also start by staying in Tokyo , where you should try to spend at least spend the weekend – preferably more. Next head to Kyoto , another amazing city in Japan and the ancient capital of the country.

Next up is Nara , a city filled with history and Japan’s first permanent capital. It’s home to some of the biggest & oldest temples in Japan like Todai-Ji, the largest wooden building in the world. Hang out & walk around the city among the deer that wander about the city.

You’ll only need to spend a day or so checking out Nara. Then head to Hiroshima .

Hiroshima was largely destroyed by an atomic bomb during World War II, but has since been rebuilt. You can visit the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park visiting the ruins surrounding ground zero.

Make sure you visit the Hiroshima Atomic Bomb museum & Hiroshima Castle which is a fortress that is surrounded by a moat, next to a park. You only need 2 or 3 days to explore Hiroshima , but make sure you take a day trip out to Miyajima Island on one of the days.

The above itinerary is plenty to keep you busy for 2 weeks in Japan, but if you have a bit more time, catch a flight to the Okinawa Islands area . Okinawa is renowned for its incredible scope of activities: epic festivals and culture, year-round beautiful beaches, and off-the-beaten-path adventure.

You really can’t go wrong no matter where you go in Japan. Even a simple stroll down the road is guaranteed to contain something pretty and a tasty snack from the konbini.

Still, here are my top places in Japan to explore!

Backpacking Tokyo

Backpacking Tokyo is an awesome experience. There is a lot to do here but it definitely helps to have a Japanese friend to show you around. When I first arrived in Tokyo, I crashed with a CouchSurfing host for the first couple of days which really helped my budget and also helped me get the most out of the city.

Even if you only have a passing interest in Anime you really should visit the Studio Ghibli museum. This needs to be booked in advance and can be booked from a machine in most convenience store chains.

The impressive Tsukiji fish market is the largest fish market in the world and is free to visit. Get there bloody early!

It is well worth booking a ticket for the Tokyo SkyTree. Being the tallest tower in Japan, not only do you get to see amazing 360 views of the city from the observation deck, but on a clear day, you can even glimpse Mt. Fuji in the distance.

Explore the food culture. Food in Japan is really a level up, delicate, balanced, and decorative… Each dish is a small work of art. If you love sushi get ready to indulge; do your research in advance so you know what to look out for, what you might like to try, and appropriate dining etiquette.

There’s a lot to do here so whether you’re spending a weekend in Tokyo or much longer, be sure to plan out your time properly.

The Kodokan (free entrance) is worth a visit although it’s only particularly impressive if it’s in use when you arrive; it is the largest Dojo in the world.

If you happen to find yourself in Tokyo during the winter, be sure to check out the Marunouchi Illumination, where the cobblestone street of Nakadori is lit up beautifully.

There are plenty of temples and palaces, and although these are worth visiting many of them have an entrance fee. If short on cash, I recommend waiting until Kyoto as the most impressive temples are found there.

The nightlife is also typically insane in the endearing Japanese fashion, and Tokyo is a super safe city to get loose in. Some of the parks in Tokyo can be rather good fun to visit too, and it is worth wandering around Harijuku to catch a glimpse of the infamous ‘Harijuku girls’.

There are absolutely LOADS of awesome day trips that you can do from Tokyo. I would recommend staying in the Shinjuku area because it’s close to Shinjuku Station which goes to tons of cool places for day trips.

I’ve compiled the ULTIMATE list of the 10 best day trips in Tokyo to help you make the most out of your Japanese journey.

One of the coolest things about Tokyo is the incredible options of accommodation you have. As well as traditional ryokan’s (guesthouses) where you can sleep on tatami mats and rooms have multi-uses (a concept I can totally get on board with), you can also stay in sleep pods and capsule hotels in Tokyo.

Japan is the birthplace and founder of the capsule hotel, so you should definitely consider checking one out on your trip.

Backpacking Mount Fuji

Mount Fuji is Japan’s most iconic mountain. It is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in Japan , and watching the sunrise from the top is on many a backpacker’s bucket list.

Although it is one of the most popular things to do when travelling in Japan, bear in mind that it stands at an altitude of 3776m and altitude sickness is a real possibility even though the climb itself isn’t very difficult. Anybody with a reasonable level of fitness can climb Mount Fuji but, if you can, it makes sense to do a bit of training first.

The Hakone township itself lies within the Fuji-Hake-Lzu National Park area & boasts stunning views of the iconic volcano Mount Fuji! The scenery here is incredible, and it’s also the cheapest place to conquer the summit of Mt Fuji.

Make sure you are loaded with plenty of water, enough warm clothes, energy bars, and great hiking shoes. Also, put yourself up in a dope hostel around Mt Fuji ; somewhere you can rest your head before and after the climb and meet some other cool peeps.

The climb is best attempted during the official season – From July to the end of August although this is the busiest time to stay in Mt. Fuji and it can become crowded.

At other times of the year, the trekking route is shut due to low temperatures and snow. If you’re looking for a quiet sunrise and to be alone amongst nature, Fuji is the wrong mountain for you. But I will say that if you are going to Japan, you really should try to fit in a visit to Mount Fuji.

There is a popular Japanese saying – ‘One who never climbs Mount Fuji is a fool; one who climbs it twice is twice the fool’. So go ahead and give it a shot! And, don’t miss a cool ride around the Lake Kawaguchiko . It provides an ideal standpoint for epic Mount Fuji views, with enchanting old towns in close proximity.

Backpacking Matsumoto

The city is famous for its old original 16th-century castle Matsumoto, commonly known as Crow Castle. Explore Matsumoto city, and visit Nakamachi street, it’s lined with old merchant houses, the river is also a nice spot to eat dinner at night.

You only need 2 days here to see everything. To leave, in the morning get a train from Matsumoto to Shinano-omachi. Then take the incredible Alpine Route to Kanazawa. Just FYI, the Alpine Route is only open from April to November.

Backpacking Kyoto

Kyoto is pretty damn special. It is crammed with temples, shrines, castles, and legends…

If you are planning a trip to Kyoto for the first time, you should try to stay in Gion, the Geisha district; it is crazy colourful. A Japanese friend gave me some tips on the correct etiquette when interacting with Geishas; Never talk to a Geisha or try to stop them for photos as this is considered extremely rude.

Kyoto’s famed Golden Pavilion is well worth a visit; it’s a stunning place to spend half an hour or so quietly contemplating the beautiful gardens set in the shadow of the impressive temple. Unfortunately, the entrance price is pretty steep and often it’s pretty crowded; arrive early.

Nijo-jo is an impressive castle from the outside but is sadly rather empty on the inside; still worth exploring. Kiyomizu-dera (free) is well worth visiting. Dairoku-Ji was my favourite temple complex in Kyoto.

Kyoto upholds formal traditions like Kiseki dining with a Geisha. The bamboo forest is enchanting to stroll through & the nightlife is pretty good here.

There are hundreds of temples and shrines in Kyoto and you could spend a lifetime trying to visit them all. Among the ancient temples, you can also explore the hip, alternative side of Kyoto. Kyoto has a sweet underground scene too, though maybe not to the degree of Osaka.

Consult your guesthouse or Kyoto Airbnb host to find out which temples are nearest to you. I have heard great things about Arashiyama’s bamboo forests, which is an easy day trip from Kyoto.

For backpackers looking for an epic trekking adventure, consider going on the Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Trek . This 3-day hike takes you to 5 UNESCO World Heritage sites and even some hot springs so you can soak your weary bones.

Backpacking Nara

If you have a free day, you can make an easy day trip (by train) to Nara, Japan’s historical capital. Nara is full of historic neighborhoods , chilled-out parks, and more temples including Todai-Ji , the largest wooden building in the world.

Todai-Ji was the only building in Nara which I thought was worth paying to get into. Most of the other temples are less impressive and yet still cost around $10 to get into.

Check this picture:

That’s me kicking ass with a Samurai I was introduced to through Couchsurfing. Seriously folks, in Japan, it’s all about having unique experiences and discovering cool places you wouldn’t normally hear about.

My secret weapon for this is always travelling by Couchsurfing : it is simply the best way to get to grips with a new place and land on your feet with a social life.

Backpacking Hiroshima

Poignant Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is heartbreaking. The park tells the story of how Hiroshima, a previously untouched (by the war) city in Japan, was nuked towards the end of WWII by American forces.

In the park, you’ll find the Atomic Bomb Dome – the site where the first atomic bomb hit, and now just a skeletal reminder of the past. The park is free to get into and it costs under a dollar. It’s well worth it to visit the museum.

You can store your bags in museum lockers for free. When visiting the museum, I recommend splashing out on the audio tour. There are two free films you can watch in the museum’s small cinema. You can get free WiFi here as well so it’s a good place to chill if you’re stuck for a bit.

There is a library in the park where you can use a computer for up to an hour for free. That said, most backpacker hostels in Hiroshima have WiFi and computer capabilities.

I personally found visiting Hiroshima to be a really worthwhile but somewhat distressing experience – do some research beforehand so that you have a basic idea of what occurred here before booking somewhere to stay .

If you have a spare day on your hands, head off to beautiful Miyajima. An easy day trip from Hiroshima, Miyajima is a fantastic island covered in gorgeous woods. Hike up into the hills to escape the tourist crowds and discover some awesome views as well as herds of cheeky deer.

Backpacking Osaka

Osaka is number three of Japan’s major tourist destination cities. Not quite as culturally encroached as Kyoto yet not quite as… insane as Tokyo, Osaka is the brash, rash, and oh so lovable youngest sibling of the three.

The locals in Osaka pride themselves on being a touch less tightly wound than their kin across the isles. They have their eccentric slang, are looser with their tongues (relative to other Japanese people), and even enjoy the odd comedy show.

There is no shortage of cool places to stay in Osaka – it’s one of the places to go in Japan that are more suited to hosting backpackers. With tonnes of cool hostels and plenty of esoteric nightlife, it’s a very good part of Japan to visit if you’re feeling the isolation that sometimes creeps up when backpacking there.

Foreigner or Japanese, you’re bound to make some friends here, especially if you stay in a homestay in Osaka .

Backpacking Sapporo and Hokkaido

Most travellers don’t plan a trip to Sapporo and Hokkaido. In fact, Hokkaido gets way too little love in the backpacking scene in Japan, so I’m here to fix that! In summer, Hokkaido is a vibrant lush green wonderland of mountains, wildflowers, and fruits to pick.

Come winter, however… holy shit is it cold! But it’s a dreamy Narnia-like snowscape with some of the most majestic fields of powder and frozen lakes that you’ll ever lay eyes on.

The northernmost of Japan’s four main islands, Hokkaido is to Japan what South Island is to New Zealand: a sparser population in a harsher landscape where only the most chill and off-beat of Japanese choose to live.

If you’re looking for the off-kilter black sheep Japanese (particularly the ones that like a little greenery in their ciggies), you’ll find them in Hokkaido.

Sapporo is the capital of Hokkaido island, and, honestly, it’s a pretty cool city. It doesn’t have quite the smashing of tourist attractions that a lot of other Japanese cities do, but there are still plenty of cool hostels in Sapporo , quirky things to do, and infinite amounts of unrelenting food comas to swelter through.

Also, it’s a pretty city! Mountains, greenery, and forest. Truthfully, I just have a real soft spot in my heart for my time staying in Sapporo .

Overall, Hokkaido is about as off the beaten path in Japan as you can get. Travelling it by hitchhiking is going to mean you meet the quirkiest and best of Japanese folks. And if you happen to travel it by motorbike, well, that’s just a rite of passage for many young Japanese seeking their first adventure.

Backpacking Okinawa

Well, we talked about the frozen north, so now we’re talking about the summery south. The Okinawa islands are considerably further than you may expect from mainland Japan: they’re about halfway between Japan and Taiwan.

As such, they have a much more temperate climate. I’d also go so far as to say that Okinawa’s beautiful beaches kinda blow Japan’s rather weak offerings out of the water. Much as Indians travel to Mauritius for their ultimate Hawaii-style holiday, that’s why many Japanese visit Okinawa.

EXCEPT, Okinawa is not Japan – not really. Long before its annexation and subsequent pilfering by American military bases, Okinawa was its own vibrant land with its own people, language, culture, and music (not dissimilar to many Polynesian peoples).

Travelling to Okinawa is both a chance to see a different side of Japan and to peek at the ugliness beneath the Geisha’s mask of perfection (on that note, ask about the Ainu people when you reach Hokkaido).

Artifacts of history aside, there are plenty of fun things to do in Okinawa and its surrounding islands. Most of them involve beaches, sure, but backpackers love beaches! Beautiful, blissful, sunny beaches. Diving, surfing, and lounging about getting tanned all day – what’s not to love!

Backpacking Ishigakijima

Ishigakijima is about 400km south of the main island of Okinawa. The colour of the ocean and the fragrance of the flowers are mesmerising. It has the clearest blue waters and if you go snorkelling you will be surrounded by coral and tropical fish.

This is a pretty sweet spot for a romantic getaway, with the peaceful waters, starry skies, and some of the best beaches in Japan that you’ll find.

Want to get into some scuba diving in Ishigakijima ? The real magic of the island lies beneath the surface of the ocean. You can go for dives and earn your scuba certificate in just a couple of days, which enables you to go diving anywhere in the world after leaving Ishigakijima.

Ishigakijima has the most beautiful night sky in Japan! You could also go explore the Hirakubosaki lighthouse. This is the island to go to if you want to immerse yourself in the nature of Okinawa’s outlying islands.

We’ve tested countless backpacks over the years, but there’s one that has always been the best and remains the best buy for adventurers: the broke backpacker-approved Osprey Aether and Ariel series.

Want more deetz on why these packs are so  damn perfect? Then read our comprehensive review for the inside scoop!

Backpacking Japan is all about having unique and crazy experiences that you cannot have anywhere else in the world. Below are the top 10 craziest, must-try things to do in Japan:

1. Watch a Sumo Wrestling Match

Large men pretty much-rocking thongs and battling it out. Where else in the world do you get to see something so delightfully odd?

2. Real Life Mario Kart

Get ready to race! Nothing like speeding around one of the world’s largest cities, in tiny go-karts, full-blown Mario Kart-style minus the blue shells and lightning bolts.

If you are looking for a bit of thrill and some fun then street go-karting is definitely something to add to your Tokyo itinerary .

3. Bathe in an Onsen

Onsens are hot spring thermal pools that are very unique to Japan. They are usually outdoors and are surrounded by beautiful zen gardens and soothing music. There is nothing more relaxing than soaking in the warm waters of an onsen…until a naked granny sits down next to you.

Full disclosure, you have to be completely naked to enjoy an onsen – no bathing suites allowed. Men and women are separated, so if you’re travelling with your loved one, you’ll have to separate. It’s not creepy or weird though, everyone is so monged out in zen that they won’t even notice you.

If you’re not cool about getting into a pool with naked people then you can get a private onsen which is basically like a bathtub.

If you have tattoos, you won’t be able to enjoy this experience since they don’t like tattoos in Japan. But you might be able to have a private onsen.

4. Find out What an Earthquake Feels Like

Keen to feel what a real live earthquake feels like without, you know, experiencing an actual earthquake?

Ikebukuro Earthquake Hall is definitely an interesting experience…. you get the feeling of being in an earthquake without any of the risks.

At the same time, you can learn about what to do should you find yourself in a real earthquake. And if you’re a traveller, you’re probably going to land yourself in some places where it could happen.

…Like Japan.

5. Get Lost in Another World

Enjoy the colorful and eccentric world of teamLab Borderless. This unique immersion will completely stimulate your visual senses. Crafted as a living museum, one without boundaries, teamLab Borderless is an ever changing ecstatic experience.

6. Eat at a Cosplay Restaurant

The basic idea here is that it is a normal restaurant, except the ladies are dressed in French maid outfits, and address you as “master.” Any ladies reading this and not totally loving the idea?

Don’t worry – they’ve got butler restaurants for you, too. Hell, there’s even one where chicks dress up as the butlers. Basically, there’s a rather strange-themed restaurant for you, whatever your tastes, in Japan.

7. Then go to the Meguro Parasitological Museum

Not exactly the museum you had in mind? Well, entrance is free, and it’s not exactly the type of museum you’re going to find anywhere else on planet earth. With 300 parasite specimens to view, save this for a few hours after your tasty Ramen has been digested.

8. Random Robot-ness

If over-the-top performances and costumes are your thing then you need to check out the famous Robot Restaurant Show. It is hard to describe this full-on craziness. Everything from the entrance to the handful of extravagantly overdone floors is pushing this Vegas-like energy as you descend into the robot pit. The show itself is full of different themes and acts as two sides battle each other.

9. Go to the Ramen Museum

Yep, this exists. Learn about the many flavours of Ramen, and, more importantly, taste them! This is so much better than the just-add-water kind we’ve all been rocking. This is one of the coolest things to do in Osaka .

10. Marvel at the Samurai Warriors

Have you ever been awed by martial arts and wanted to see samurai warriors in action? Then you’ll definitely want to make sure you catch a Samurai Dinner Theatre in Tokyo.

This isn’t an ordinary dinner though, it’s on the sacred grounds of Kanda Myojint, and you get UNLIMITED drinks and a delicious meal. The show is staged, of course, but it’s still an authentic experience.

Wanna know how to pack like a pro? Well for a start you need the right gear….

These are packing cubes for the globetrotters and compression sacks for the  real adventurers – these babies are a traveller’s best kept secret. They organise yo’ packing and minimise volume too so you can pack MORE.

Or, y’know… you can stick to just chucking it all in your backpack…

For backpackers on a budget, Couchsurfing is your best bet whilst backpacking in Tokyo. Outside of that, Japan’s hostels and backpacker accommodation are cheap-ish (depending on where you are) but also undeniably excellent in that typical Japanese fashion.

You’ll find the cheapest option would be to try staying at a homestay in Japan . Not only is this affordable but you get to stay with a local who can give you great ideas for things to see and do.

The hostel scene, however, is pretty awesome. It’s super diverse and they have some state-of-the-art amenities, some including co-working spaces and lounges to meet others in. You can expect hostels to cost around $15-$20 per night.

You can expect to meet some interesting characters while  staying in a Japanese hostel . This is where you can trade travel stories and pick up tips about where to go next. In Japan, it’s quite common for hostels to be capsule-style, this means the beds will be facing inwards instead of along the wall (it’s a great space-saving idea, take note, Ikea!)

If hostels don’t sound like your thing – or maybe you just want to indulge in a double bed for a special occasion – Japan also has a range of great Airbnbs, but they will cost you a bit more.

You can stay in whole apartments for  around $80  a night. You can find traditional ryokan guesthouses on Airbnb, which are much more affordable and another authentic Japanese experience. So it’s definitely worth checking out, even if you are travelling on a budget.

In between swanky Airbnbs and budget hostels are a bunch of great hotels and inns. Hotels tend to be the same everywhere you go, so if you want a unique experience, I highly recommend checking out some hostels for your trip.

The Best Places to Stay in Japan

Check out these awesome places to stay in Japan…

Backpacking Japan on a budget is possible, but I have to admit it is going to take some well-calculated planning and some sacrifices. If you map out your route and the things you want to do, you can book discount flight tickets , a multi-day rail pass, and other helpful money-savers ahead of time.

It is possible to backpack Japan for $35 a day, but this will mean hitchhiking and wild camping while splurging on a few dorm beds, eating at convenience stores and food courts, and only picking a couple of sites to visit. Transportation is the largest cost, so staying put will help cut costs too.

But this is Japan. If you want to eat sushi and go to a Robot dinner show, soak it up in hot springs and visit several beautiful shrines, and have a couple of nights out on the town, you will want a minimum of $75 a day.

Were you expecting more? Many people think you need hundreds of dollars a day to visit Japan, but there are a lot of ways to save money and travel comfortably for well under $100 a day. Read on!

There are some good options set up for backpackers. A bed in a ten-bed dorm often costs around $30. (Hey cheaper than Western Europe!) If you have to book a hostel I recommend the chain ‘ K’s House ‘  – as they will give you a loyalty card allowing you to make savings throughout the country.

I know a couple of girls who just hitchhiked and wild camped around Japan, so it’s definitely possible to camp. Just be wary of the wild boars!  You’ll have to tie your food up in a tree, but the upside is that you’ll be able to sleep for free!

Travelling by Couchsurfing in Japan is a fantastic option if you’re travelling solo. There are plenty of gracious hosts ready to flex their hospitality cred. And finally, if you are travelling with a group, hotels and Airbnb may be an affordable option too.

Food can be expensive if you’re eating sushi all the time. Cheap food is available at one of the many 7/11s gracing every street. I mostly ate rice balls and pizza slices and was able to get by on around $8 a day for food. There are some cheap restaurants where it is possible to find a meal for around $12.

If you don’t want to eat pizza slices all day, Bento boxes are also cheap and can be bought from any convenience store. You can also get Ramen and Udon for around 1000-1500 Yen. Food courts also serve cheap street food!

If you plan ahead, you can definitely save your pennies. The best way to get around is by metro and train, and buying a Japan Rail Pass  beforehand can be a big money saver. It’s really wise at looking into this in advance of your trip.

There are also some multi-day rail passes which are essential for getting around the country with ease and swiftness. A multi-day rail pass can end up saving you a lot of money.

JAL (and Oneworld) and ANA Airlines each offer special domestic fares exclusively for foreign visitors to Japan for not much over 10,000 yen per flight. Just make sure you book these tickets outside  of Japan, so before your trip.

Not so much an itinerary planner? I recommend you hitchhike.

Although metro services are fairly reasonable, trains can be expensive unless you book them in advance. The best form of budget transport for major distances is bus.

I recommend using Willer buses as they are the cheapest around and they operate night services allowing you to save money on accommodation. When booking buses try to book them in advance as this is always cheaper.

Exploring traditional markets, visiting shrines, or absorbing the vibes in Harajuku are all either free or have really low entrance fees!

That said many major sites and attractions in Japan charge a hefty entrance fee, so either choose what you want to see carefully or get a  day pass  rather than a few individual tickets.

A Daily Budget in Japan

Not sure how much Japan is going to cost you? Here’s a quick overview of what you can expect for a daily budget.

Money in Japan

Fun fact! The Japanese 5 yen coin (the gold one with the hole in it) is called a go’en (i.e. go-yen abbreviated (with ‘go’ meaning five and ‘yen’ meaning yen). BUT ‘goen’ also means destiny in the Japanese language which is why a certain spiritual significance is placed on the 5 yen coin in the Japanese cultural traditions.

Is that relevant? Na, a go’en will still barely buy you four grains of a rice ball, but it’s kinda cool. If you’re visiting shrines in Japan, save up your goen’s to make a wish at the money boxes. Maybe you can wish for a slightly more useful denomination of cash!

As of May 2022, 1 USD = 130 yen , or if it makes life easier, think of it as 100 yen = 76 cents!

ATMS are all over the country as are convenience stores, banks, shopping centres, and just about anywhere else you could imagine getting money out. You won’t have to work hard to stay loaded up.

However, international ATMs in Japan do usually carry a chunky fee. Make sure you’re getting out fat stacks at once to save on fees and then make sure you’re hiding your money well when travelling . Even Japan has some buttwipes.

For all matters of finance and accounting on the road, The Broke Backpacker strongly recommends Wise – The Artist Formerly Known as Transferwise!

Our favourite online platform for holding funds, transferring money, and even paying for goods, Wise is a 100% FREE platform with considerably lower fees than Paypal or traditional banks. But the real question is… is it better than Western Union? Yes, it most certainly is.

Travel Tips – Japan on a Budget

Japan can be a very expensive country, luckily though if you follow the Japan travel tips below you can backpack Japan on the cheap…

• Cook your own food: I took a travel gas cooker with me to Japan and cooked a lot of my own meals whilst hitching and camping, I saved a fortune.
• Couchsurfing: The best way to explore any country when you’re broke is to get on Couchsurfing.
• Eat local: Avoid the big restaurants and stick to street food, food courts, and convenience stores.
• Camp, camp, and camp some more: Wild camping makes a HUGE difference in Japan, and it’s super easy to get away with… you just take the right adventure gear !
• Hitchhike: In Japan, it is so so easy to thumb a ride and it is an ace way to keep your transport costs down and instead spend it on smashing experiences. So hitchhike as much as you can when backpacking in Japan.

Why You Should Travel to Japan with a Water Bottle

Plastic washes up on even the most pristine beaches… so do your part and keep the Big Blue beautiful

You aren’t going to save the world overnight, but you might as well be part of the solution and not the problem. When you travel to some of the world’s most remote places, you come to realise the full extent of the plastic problem. And I hope you become more inspired to continue being a responsible traveller .

Plus, now you won’t be buying overpriced bottles of water from the supermarkets either! Travel with a filtered water bottle instead and never waste a cent nor a turtle’s life again.

Drink water from ANYWHERE. The Grayl Geopress is the worlds leading filtered water bottle protecting you from all manner of waterborne nasties.

Single-use plastic bottles are a MASSIVE threat to marine life. Be a part of the solution and travel with a filter water bottle. Save money and the environment!

We’ve tested the Geopress  rigorously  from the icy heights of Pakistan to the tropical jungles of Bali, and can confirm: it’s the best water bottle you’ll ever buy!

The best time to visit Japan is between March to May and September to November . If you want to catch the famous cherry blossom season (and, yes, you do) your best bet is to go backpacking in Japan between March and May.

The delicate cherry blossom season of spring and the vibrant hues of the autumn leaves are absolutely stunning!

Thinking of heading to one of the many festivals in Japan? Take this into consideration when deciding what time of year to visit this diverse country.

What to Pack for Japan

Get your packing for Japan right! On every adventure, there are six things I never go traveling without:

Snoring dorm-mates can ruin your nights rest and seriously damage the hostel experience. This is why I always travel with a pack of decent ear plugs.

Hanging Laundry Bag

Trust us, this is an absolute game changer. Super compact, a hanging mesh laundry bag stops your dirty clothes from stinking, you don’t know how much you need one of these… so just get it, thank us later.

Sea To Summit Micro Towel

Hostel towels are scummy and take forever to dry. Microfibre towels dry quickly, are compact, lightweight, and can be used as a blanket or yoga mat if need be.

Monopoly Deal

Forget about Poker! Monopoly Deal is the single best travel card game that we have ever played. Works with 2-5 players and guarantees happy days.

Grayl Geopress Water Bottle

Always travel with a water bottle! They save you money and reduce your plastic footprint on our planet. The Grayl Geopress acts as a purifier AND temperature regulator. Boom!

Oh, you’ll also want to get a specific travel adapter for Japan too so you can keep all your shiz charged!

Japan is safe to visit – one of the safest countries in the world to visit in fact. Honestly, there isn’t much crime here, and people don’t really steal. You can leave your purse unattended in a metro station, and chances are, you’ll get it back.

That being said, you should exercise caution wherever you go. Even in Japan, there are dodgy areas. For example, Kabukich? is considered to be Japan’s “red-light district” and though it’s not legal, prostitution happens here.

Japan has a very low crime rate and most of the crime that happens here is petty crimes like bag or phone snatching. Just be careful when wandering around the cities at night.

Sex, Drugs, and Rock ’n’ Roll in Japan

Japan is big on sex, alcohol, and pop music to an often extreme degree. What you will not find very easily though is weed. They have very strict rules around possession and consumption, and in Japan, you are guilty until proven innocent.

The number of cops is insane and rumour on the street is that the cops are actively looking to bust anyone who looks foreign. So you’re probably better off avoiding getting high whilst backpacking Japan.

Tokyo has one of the world’s best concert scenes. The city is full of small and medium-size concert halls called “live houses” in Japanese.

There are plenty of genre-specific venues in the city including punk, hip hop and jazz clubs. If you’re in town you should definitely check out a show — even if it’s a random band you’ve never heard of!

Most small shows cost 2000 – 3500 yen and might feature 2-4 bands. Japan also hosts one of the coolest music festivals in Asia – Fuji Rock .

This festival is famous for its chilled open-air forest theme – rural Japan at its best! What better way to explore it than with a groundbreaking music festival. If you’re around in Japan in July, make sure to check this festival.

Tinder is pretty common in Japan. Keep in mind that the Japanese are pretty old fashioned when it comes to love and sex. They prefer to be physically intimate only after confessing their love for each other.

Also, it is not uncommon for a woman to ask a man out. So yeah don’t be surprised if a Japanese woman is somewhat forward. Swipe away!

Get Insured BEFORE Visiting Japan

Traveling without insurance would be risky. So do consider getting good backpacker insurance sorted before you head off on an adventure.

ALWAYS sort out your backpacker insurance before your trip. There’s plenty to choose from in that department, but a good place to start is Safety Wing .

They offer month-to-month payments, no lock-in contracts, and require absolutely no itineraries: that’s the exact kind of insurance long-term travellers and digital nomads need.

SafetyWing is cheap, easy, and admin-free: just sign up lickety-split so you can get back to it!

Click the button below to learn more about SafetyWing’s setup or read our insider review for the full tasty scoop.

The most common flight destination in Japan is Narita Airport (NRT) , which is about an hour from Tokyo.

There are a ton of international ferries to Japan, from Korea, Taiwan, China, and Russia, but for backpackers, Busan (Korea) is likely to be the only practical destination from which to take a boat to Japan.

Boats are generally cheaper than airfares, but their schedules can be unreliable, and travel times long and tedious. Unless you’re travelling with cargo, spending two days on a ferry is really no fun. It’s fairly straightforward to sort out your Japanese visa before you arrive!

Entry Requirements for Japan

Most countries do not need a Visa to enter Japan and will receive 90 days on arrival. All other nationalities need to apply for a ‘Temporary Visitor’ visa prior to arrival, which is generally valid for a stay of 90 days.

If you’re from one of the few countries that are not granted a visa on arrival, you will need to be invited by a Japanese resident and have a letter of invitation along with your visa application. You must then apply for the visa at your local Japanese embassy with all your supporting documents. It should take 5 days to process the application.

Be sure to check out the official page for visas for Japan , and then get the visa if required!

Japan has one of the world’s best transport systems . Getting around is usually very easy but transportation can really dig a hole in your pocket.

Although Japan is a fairly expensive country, there are a variety of passes for foreigners that can make travel more affordable.

My advice would be to backpack Japan using the super cool bullet trains. Shinkansen away my friend!

Trains in Japan are super fast and always on time! The confusing aspect of Japan’s railway system is that several private railway networks overlap with the most popular – JR network. I would advise you to download Hyperdia to figure out train routes and schedules.

Your best bet is to get a  Japan Rail Pass (JR Pass) , which allows unlimited travel on almost all JR trains (bullet trains), for a fixed period of 7, 14 or 21 days.

This will save you a ton of money! If you are sure about your route, what you can also do is get local or regional passes. There are several types of trains available too, but the Shikansen  or the bullet train is the fastest and the best! This is the most affordable way to backpack Japan on a budget.

Buy your JR Pass  before you arrive in Japan.

Japan’s excellent bullet train/ Shinkansen  network has rendered flights more of a luxury than a necessity. However, the only way to reach Japan’s outlying islands is by plane.

Given that Japan is an island nation, boats are a surprisingly uncommon means of transport. Most major islands are linked together by bridges and tunnels.

However, the ferry from the north of Honshu – at either Aomori or Oma – to Hokkaido is a blast. Particularly, the ferry from Oma is sweet: you’re at the misty northernmost point of Honshu island here and a proper fishing village wayyy off the beaten track.

Long-distance highway buses serve many routes covered by trains at significantly lower prices, but take much longer than the  Shinkansen , and let’s agree, they are much less cooler! You could also take local buses in smaller towns. Be sure to check the price before you venture into one. They can be surprisingly expensive at times!

There are taxis available everywhere in Japan. They are very clean and comfortable but can be pretty damn expensive.

Taxi meters are strictly regulated and clearly visible to the passenger. Make sure to get a trip cost estimate from the driver. If you do this, some taxi drivers will stop the meter at the estimated price regardless of how much further the destination may be, which can save you money, but remember this doesn’t happen every time.

Luckily, Uber is now available in Japan and a great way to get around. Get a Japanese SIM card to use this while you’re out and about.

Hitchhiking in Japan

Hitchhiking in Japan is the key to true budget travel and the way to escape the country’s ruinously expensive transport costs, but it can be fairly tricky. Though it is close to impossible to hitch a ride in Tokyo and other Japanese cities, it gets easier as you move away from most major cities.

Make sure to always hitch at an interchange or at a gas station and not on the expressways as it is prohibited to go there on foot and the police will rock up.

Hitchhiking in Japan is still pretty uncommon so it is likely that you might be the first hitchhiker that your driver has ever even seen, much less picked up. The key to hitchhiking is to look as friendly as possible.

That said, this is one of the safest countries you can ever travel by hitchhiking .

Broke Backpacker Tip: Put up a sign in Kanji (Japanese script) that says Nihongo dekimasu which translates to ‘Japanese can’. Put smileys in between your kanji characters to earn extra brownie points and more rides!

Onwards Travel from Japan

Being a series of islands, Japan shares maritime borders with:

• North Korea (less of an option though)
• The Philippines

Flights to any of these places plus other major destinations around Asia tend to be pretty cheap. And as a bonus tip, Japan is one of the best places to fly to the Americas and the US from on this side of the Asian continent.

Unless you’re heading to Western Europe, Japan is an excellent travel hub!

While it’s a much more common country for backpackers to visit as tourists, plenty of travellers do choose to work in Japan. I did! Did I have a work visa?

Work visas for Japan understandably require some hoop-jumping. You’ll need to choose a work visa for your type of occupation (there are separate visas for different types of skilled occupations, a dedicated program for English teachers, and even a Japan working holiday agreement with a list of countries).

You’ll ALSO need a Certificate of Eligibility to obtain a work visa which will require a letter from your prospective employer or sponsor. Work visas for Japan usually run for 1 or 3 years . I’d recommend this source on Japan’s working visas since it’s a complicated subject with a lot of ins and outs.

Alternatively, there is always the call of the life and times of a digital nomad! With ample WiFi, crackin’ services, and all the cheap ramen in the world, walking the life of a cyber traveller in Japan is an excellent idea! (Minus the hustle with accommodation prices.)

There’s no visa for digital nomads . You could tell immigration about your job and face that admin nightmare that awaits, but considering I tried explaining to a Japanese immigration officer that I was a volunteer and even that was too left-of-field for his understanding, I wouldn’t bother.

Besiiides, we didn’t become digital nomads to do admin and pay taxes. Enjoy your grey areas; Japan is a good place for it. 😉

A new country, a new contract, a new piece of plastic – booooring. Instead, buy an eSIM!

An eSIM works just like an app: you buy it, you download it, and BOOM! You’re connected the minute you land. It’s that easy.

Is your phone eSIM ready? Read about how e-Sims work or click below to see one of the top eSIM providers on the market and  ditch the plastic .

Teaching English in Japan

Teaching English in Japan  is one of the most popular forms of work for foreigners in the country. With the right qualifications (i.e.  a TEFL certificate and a degree), you’ll find a lot of doors opening to you with some of the best wages too (relative to the standards of Asia).

The wage is good – enough to put some extra away in spite of Japan’s high cost of living – and you’ll likely be given a place to stay on a contract job too. That helps!

TEFL courses open up a huge range of opportunities and you can find teaching work  all over the world  with one! Broke Backpacker readers get a 50% discount on TEFL courses through  MyTEFL (using the code PACK50).

You’ll need a prospective employer to sponsor you (and to go on a contract too) to get a Japanese visa to work . Usually, English teachers end up working in learning centers or schools, but there are heaps of opportunities!

However, the credentials are high and they are nearly always looking for fluent English speakers with a degree and the right qualifications.

The two things you need to teach English in Japan are an undergraduate degree and a TEFL certificate . Now, possibly you can skip on the degree (he says imagining his diploma and what fine roach paper is made); having both is simply going to make finding a job much easier.

It’s also a tough working environment – don’t expect to work in Japan and have hours left in the day to have fun. Teaching in Japan is hard work.

That being said, a lot of people teach in Japan to save up some more of that travel dollar – so it’s still a good idea to do it for a while and save some money to blow on epic adventures. Of course, teaching English abroad is an experience in itself. There’s no better way to experience a culture than working in it.

If you aren’t ready to go full nomad, try out a gap year in Japan with an agency!

Volunteering in Japan

Outside of legal work or illegal work (some might say the BEST kind of work!), volunteering in Japan is another kickass opportunity that I also did. Guess what? It was sick!

Finding volunteering gigs in Japan is pretty easy – even just talking, expressing interest, and (sincerely) playing the role of the inquisitive and well-intentioned traveller will land you some work with a place to stay and ridiculous feasts and hospitality.

As a further personal note, volunteering in Japan is a good way to live the local life and peek beneath the mask of perfection. Japan is very adept at only showing tourists what it wants them to see: volunteering can help you see the real Japan.

Alternatively, scooch on over to Workaway or any of the Workaway alternatives to find yourself a gig lickety-split! Agriculture, hospitality, tourism, volunteering with kiddos (which basically amounted to me going swimming and playing Mario Kart with kids for six hours a day) are just a few of the awesome opportunities you’ll find.

Aside from Workaway, Worldpackers also offers some substantial and rewarding experiences alongside a whole host of other community features unique to their platform.

Plus, if you join the Worldpackers community as a Broke Backpacker reader (use the code BROKEBACKPACKER ) at the checkout, you get a fat chunk off the signup cost – 20% OFF your annual fee!

Hai, itadakimasu!

While it is difficult to stereotype an entire society, there are some important things to understand about Japan.

Japan is organized into a hierarchy: age and status matter and younger people show their elders respect and honour. It is rude to refer to seniors with informal language.

In Japan, tone of voice and facial expressions matter a lot since spoken words can have several meanings.

Another highly ritualistic and meaningful custom in Japan is the gift-giving etiquette. Gifts are given on many occasions.

In business and social settings, punctuality is a must. Seriously, no one is ever late. Even the public transportatino is on time. Time management is important in Japan. It is courteous to show up to a business meeting or social gathering early.

Japanese people value harmony and etiquette in a highly structured and traditional society. Japan isn’t as “individualistic” as many Western countries. Your actions tend to reflect more on your family, community, and peers.

Make no mistake: Japanese culture is one of a kind. It’s extremely fascinating not to mention totally unique. With a good dose of curiosity, mixed in with the usual respect for local traditions, there will hardly be a dull moment for you while getting to know Japanese people.

Useful Travel Phrases for Japan

Japanese is not an easy language, however, learning a few travel phrases long way! Many Japanese people do not speak English well, or feel embarrassed too, so knowing these travel phrases will help you connect with the locals!

Learning Japanese though, that’s where it’s really at. Global Work and Travel offer the opportunity to learn Japanese in either Tokyo City, Kyota or Fukuoka.

You can stay anywhere from 2 to 12 weeks in Japan with small class sizes so you get MORE attention (you’ll need it, Japanese ain’t easy). Plus, what better way to learn than to fully immerse yourself!

What to Eat in Japan

The food in Japan is both unbelievably diverse and un- fucking -believably tasty! Cheap instant ramen from the convenience store will be the greatest you’ve ever had. Find an actual steaming hole-in-the-wall ramen bar and its food coma country.

Every area, town, city, ward, whatever – they all pride themselves on their signature dish. You can get ramen anywhere, right? But you can only get Sapporo ramen in Sapporo, and it’s bloody good ramen too! (I can confirm.)

Japanese food is never too anything; flavours are balanced in a delicate fashion, and Japanese people take their cuisine very seriously. It’s also rare to ever eat anything too spicy. Spice tolerance is not a thing in Japan, and most people will look at the gaijin (foreigner) snacking on wasabi like he just started breathing fire.

Must Try Dishes in Japan

But, man, the food, holy shit – trust me: you could forget the skiing, the theme parks, the nightlife, and all the other money-sinks. Just travel to Japan, eat like a Snorlax, and sit in hot springs/onsens (also probably like a Snorlax). You’d be one happy backpacker!

• Sushi: most of you already know, sushi is raw fish served on rice seasoned lightly with vinegar. You might think sushi sounds all fancy but it actually originated as street food in Japan. Delicious sushi can be found all over Japan  in every price range.
• Ramen:  Egg noodles in a salty broth and is Japan’s favourite late night meal. It is simple to make and is oh so filling! One of the most popular ramen shops in Japan is Enji, it has ramen noodles dipped in a thickly concentrated fish-and-pork-bone-based broth – YUM!
• Takoyaki:  Octopus balls is a widely available snack in Japan. A crisp exterior surrounding a gooey center of octopus, pickled ginger and scallions – this is truly delectable!
• Unagi:  Fresh river eel grilled over charcoal and with some sweet barbecue sauce. It is said to be the ideal antidote to the heat and humidity of Japan’s exhausting summers.
• Tempura:  Light and fluffy tempura is Japan’s contribution to the world of deep-fried foods. It is usually seafood that is batter fried in sesame oil and served with either a tiny pool of salt or a soy sauce-flavoured broth. My favourite was the Prawns tempura!
• Miso:  Where would Japanese cuisine be without miso? This salty fermented bean paste forms the base of so many soups, sauces and marinades. Every region in Japan has its own special recipe.
• Tonkatsu:  Breaded and deep-fried pork cutlet which is melt-in-your-mouth tender. It is served with a side of miso soup and a mountain of shredded cabbage. This shows some sort of Western influence on Japanese cuisine.
• Yaki-imo:  Tokyo’s streets are filled with the nostalgic, nutty aroma of roasted sweet potatoes that are sold by these Yaki-mo trucks. It is the feeling of familiarity and home that pulls people to these trucks.

A Brief History of Japan

In effort to keep this section brief, I will only highlight Japan’s modern history and focus on the 20th century.

Japan and China have a long history of war. In the 20th century, Japan staged a bombing, known as the Manchurian Incident of 1931 to invade Manchuria, Northern China.

This occupation reached its peak with the Nanking Massacre. It was opposed by the US and other Western powers because of economic implications. Japan then allied with Germany during WWII.

The Japanese government was structured around imperialism, which also caused them to enter the Second World War.

They seized several Pacific colonies, such as the Philippines and Malaysia. Much of their occupation in other countries ended in the second war when Japan was forced to surrender because of the nuclear atomic bombings.

This is probably one of the saddest and most significant turning points in Japanese history. Hiroshima was bombed by the US first in effort to end WWII. They soon after bombed Nagasaki. These are the only nuclear bombs to ever be used.

After the world saw the catastrophic implications of nuclear warfare, it has been a constant tension since. There are many moral implications here, as most of the casualties and people affected were civilians, not soldiers. Truly a sad event in human history.

Relations with the US were restored with the San Francisco Peace Treaty of 1951. In the decades following the Second World War, Japan’s economy grew considerably. Japan still remains one of the world’s most culturally and economically vital countries on the planet.

Visit Japan in all its kooky, weird, and wonderful ways! And the nature. Mmm, the nature.

Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum

The atomic bombing of Hiroshima was one of the most monumental and destructive moments in Japanese history.

After the Second World War ended, the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and Hall was constructed in 1955 to remember those who lost their lives in this tragic event. Those who truly want to learn about Japan and all its history will need to include this on their visit to Japan.

Sitting in an Onsen/Hot Spring

Onsens are unique to Japan and East Asian countries. They are usually outdoors hot spring pools that are surrounded by gorgeous Japanese gardens, peaceful music, and naked grannies.

Don’t worry though, even though you are sharing a hot spring with other naked strangers, it’s not pervy at all. In fact, you usually have space to spread out and just enjoy being in the warm water.

Men and women are separated. And if you have tattoos, it is likely you will be turned away as they don’t like tattoos in Japan. Some onsen houses will allow people with tattoos to have a private onsen (basically like a bath in a private room), but this is dependent on the onsen house.

Tea Ceremonies

Drinking tea in Japan is not like boiling the kettle and throwing a bag of PG Tips in a mug. Tea ceremonies are known as  chanoyu, or sado , in Japanese, and it represents harmony, respect, purity and tranquillity . The tea has been made in a way that best preserves the taste, and even the way it is drunk has a special technique.

Skiing in the Japanese Alps

Japan is surprisingly a great place for winter sports. One of the most popular spots in the Japanese Alps. I must warn you that it is not the cheapest to go skiing in Japan.

There are plenty of resorts in the Japanese Alps where you can hire (or buy) equipment but it’s obviously cheaper if you take your own stuff with you. Although a bit expensive, you could take a snowboarding lesson, and most places offer coaching in English.

If you’re hitting the slopes in winter, you’d want to head to Hakuba . It’s in the heart of the Japanese Alps & is where the 1998 winter Olympic games were held. You’re surrounded by 11 different mountains, so you’ve got quite a choice.

Unplan Village Hakuba is the place to stay during the snow season. They also cater for summer too with hiking, canyoning, mountain biking, kayaking, etc.

Stay in a Ryokan (Traditional Japanese Inn)

No visit to Japan would be complete without staying at a Japanese Ryokan and sleeping on a tatami mat. Since space is an issue in many traditional Japanese homes, rooms are often living spaces by day, and bedrooms by night.

You’ll sleep on a soft mattress on the floor, surrounded by authentic wooden sliding doors and paper walls. It’s an experience that you won’t forget.

Wear a kimono

From my experience, Japanese people are always willing to share their culture and history with tourists. One of the ways you can really experience the culture of Japan is by trying on a kimono. A popular activity among tourists is to walk the streets of Gion, the old town of Kyoto, in a kimono. This is the ideal place to get some photos of you in your finest gown, and you might even spot a geisha or two while you’re at it!

Things go wrong on the road ALL THE TIME. Be prepared for what life throws at you.

Buy an AMK Travel Medical Kit before you head out on your next adventure – don’t be daft!

Is it safe to backpack Japan alone?

Absolutely! It’s one of the safest countries in Asia in my opinion. Just stay in hostels and mingle with other travellers and you’ll be fine.

Is two weeks enough to backpack Japan?

Yes, if you just want to see the highlights. It would be better to set three weeks aside to really see all this country has to offer.

How much should I budget for backpacking Japan?

Depending on your travel style, I would budget at least $50 per day to be comfortable. Unfortunately, Japan certainly isn’t cheap.

Is Japan expensive to backpack?

Compared to other countries in Asia, backpacking in Japan is expensive. The biggest expense will go on transport, which is unavoidable, but you can save costs on accommodation.

Just be a responsible traveler in Japan.

Being a responsible backpacker is quite simple: be respectful of Japanese people and their culture. Japanese people value etiquette, respect, and punctuality. Abide by these things, and be respectful when you are visiting temples, shrines, and sites.

The cities of Japan are the ultimate playground, with plenty of crazy and unique things to do, so enjoy yourself; just don’t be a drunk asshole!

Japan is a truly intriguing land with something for everyone and will give you a million “What in God’s name…” moments – which is awesome!

Japan is one of my favourite destinations and you should definitely check it out even if you are on a tight budget!

BOTTOM LINE: can you manage in Japan with English being on your own? And THANK you for this wealth of info.

Yes, Yossi. Given the amount of translation apps and other language tools out there, I think you would be fine.

Wow your post is very informative, thanks so much. Will keep this in mind in my next travel to Japan

I’m suzu live in Japan where near from Tokyo. I have been doing Politics activities at Shinjuku Per month. In Japan we have really serious problems. They are not curious about politics. I guess you already felt about that while you had lived here. And now, Perhaps , this year or next year , will be hold important election and it is result for direction of future of Asia. I know I’ve been writing suddenly and might it makes you worry from my sentence. I’m sorry. Anyway I’m looking for a person who talks to people about this theme. ” In abroad, how often people usually talk about politics. And how much they are curious about that.” I was looking for a person who help us but couldn’t see good person. (I’m female. In the past , I have a trauma. so I need a person have deep curious about politics. )please teach me. Where can I meet foreigner who curious about Japanese politics? Thank you for reading long message.

I’m impressed with your budgeting skills. Awesome!

We’ll be the 100th post to say this but that Samurai picture is so cool. Experiences like that are what traveling is all about! Was your couch surfing host the one teaching you to use the sword in that picture?

Nice Samurai pic there! I cannot wait to get to Japan and eat the amazing food!

Hi Will! Great post! So many details that are often left out of other blogs.Nicely done! I have one small question… I have heard so much talk about the necessity for one of those pocket wifis to stay connected and help with directions (since Google maps cannot be downloaded offline in Japan apparently?) Do you think one of these pocket wifis is a necessity? Or would a sim card be better? or just wing it? We plan to be in Japan for about 2.5 weeks. We are used to hopping from Starbucks and McDonalds in other countries mooching off the free wifi. Is it that much more difficult in Japan?

Thanks for your input! Liz @farawayfloridians

Download maps.me – best solution to this problem! 🙂

Hey there explorers and adventurers. I am very interested in backpacking and setting out an adventure all over Japan. I speak almost fluent Japanese but I am not Japanese. I would love to take an adventure all over Japan soon. I can be a good help with the language barrier.

Let me know what you think.

Hey there Will and fellow explorers, greetings from Canada. Im an explorer, its who i am, i cant help it, it permeates everything i think and do, i have always had a deep need, an unscratchable itch to live, see, and experience all the endless beauty of life in all capacities, be it exploring my constant lifelong love of learning to gain more knowledge and skills, be it exploring a beautiful story, be it my love of finding and exlporing rich life experiences, or among many other things my love of living in the thick of history/culture and travel. I have 7 major dream trips and endless minor ones i been planning since i was 3 lol, japan being my number one, i love japan, i always have, do, and always will, i deeply connect with japan more then any other place body/mind/spirit, from the history and culture to the language, food, philosphies, martial arts which i practice, and everything inbetween. but i have yet to go to japan, ive been all over Canada, but have yet to dip my toes into world traveling, but when i do its never gonna stop, lol, never, im the explorer who loves and imbraces the experience fully, includng the challanges, i get excited by challange, all rich experience come with challange, it enhances the experience, few things worth doing are easy, whats a mountain if you arnt a better person by the time you reach the top, i dont mind and actually love roughing it, and i don’t complain i embrace, complaining is one of the few things in life that has no posotive effect overall, all it does is further feed and foster a negative way of thinking, action solves problems, complaining does not lol.Adapt, overcome, and have fun doing it, one of my many mottos 🙂 also i have an interesting side goal for my travels of always seeing how i can do the most possible for the least amount of money possible, more money means i can do more longer and travel more hehe. Lifelong travel is one of my dreams/goals, and want to live it as well by learning and doing many things including, travel journalism of all kinds, farming, teaching english, translating, interperating, tourism…etc. my long term goals also include studying in and eventually living in japan long term, and man im so excited to finally take the plunge and start that journey, then i can upgrade my vegabond status and start sticking tacks in my map instead staring at it haha and im actually doing it this winter for a month maybe more, fitingly starting with my No.1 dream trip to tour japan from south to north, i love the winter and i want see japan in my favorite season, and do it on a budget, im searching for my ticket now, i saw one in the core of winter date ranges i want a few days ago for only 650ish Canadian which is amazing, but i have never booked a ticket before and am unsure how to go about it so that its done completly and well, whats all included? and what are the steps?, also i need insurance, how do i get that? im more excited by the moment actually for japan and my journey to start haha, i have been researching my trips forever and in doing came across your site, man is it amazing, the great info, the wonderful pictures, so detailed, clear, concise, a great way of laying out guidence from start to finish of your first trip and how to keep it rolling hard, and all with such a fun tone and atmosphere, i love it, i could easily use this as my sole source for learning how to travel as a whole as well as specifics, few others come close and fewer still are on this level, its helping me so much in learning and planning my first trip, and when i saw that you have a book too i got it too, just now actually, thats one of the reasons i decided to coment, thanks and keep up the great work man, like i said one of my goals is to travel longterm and do travel journalism as well, your good at this, i would love to learn from you, where do you think i should start? any words of wisdom? anything would help, i love love writing, photography, video, business, im not shy at all, im good at expressing myself, among other things, to give you an idea of some of my interests, also any extra advise on recomendations of awesome things to do from your own experiences in japan come to mind? Thanks again, nice to meet you, hope to talk again, and keep rocking it, be well, and keeping dreaming, dreaming builds the mind and the heart, and smiling never hurts either lol, Marcel “The Samurai” from Canada 🙂

Hey Marcel and thanks for your message amigo! Words of wisdom… Never give up. Nobody owes you anything. Forge your own destiny. Hard work is the only guarantor of a positive future. Work for your future but do not forget to enjoy the present. Best of luck man! Hopefully catch you on the road for a beer sometime soon!

Hey Will, thanks for the budget tips 🙂 did you camp much in Japan, and if so where did you set up your tent (in and outside? of cities)? Thank you 🙂

I slept rough a few times in cities and camped outside of cities often; well worth having a tent but in Japan, it’s couchsurfing to the rescue in cities for sure – apply well in advance, there’s not many hosts.

Great review thank you! I’m coming into and flying out of Tokyo April 9/23. Want to tour Japan and looking to buy either a 7 day or 14 day pass. On a budget and wanted to know if you recommend 7 or 14 day JR pass?

Also do you have any recommendations for my trip on where to go?

Japan certainly isn’t an inexpensive country to travel to, but with a little creativity we can work things out, or even just save a little. Another great write up, Will, I love it how you have this “Dating in -” section, it kind of gives a little insight on how you should act around them.

Wow this is such a detailed post so thank you for sharing your experience. I’m considering travelling Japan for a few months next year so it’s good to know that the best time to go is between March and May. It looks like you covered so much while visiting. The Capsule Hostel looks so cosy!

If I was to go for 2 months and not work how much would you recommend I take money wise? Or would you recommend working as a teacher for at least a month?

Also, is the food healthy or not in Japan?

Thanks, Kim // http://www.sincerelykimberly.com xxx

The food is very healthy in Japan, lots of sushi and vegetables! Money-wise, it’s an expensive country but can be done on a budget of $1000 a month – less if you manage to couchsurf, camp or hitchhike.

After I finish college I was planning on backpacking through japan for at most a year, do you have a recommendation on how much money I should have and places I should see that are a bit more off the beaten path?

That’s a tough one… Japan is truly awesome and a year would give you the chance to do some really off the beaten path adventures – I’m heading back there myself soon with the aim to head out into the Japanese Alps and some of the outer islands (I’ll update this post once I’ve been) but I reckon your best bet is to head to the islands… Money-wise; man, it really depends – Japan ain’t cheap but if you hitchhike and camp and couchsurf, it can be. You could consider buying a scooter to get around; transport is the biggest cost.

Can you tell me where you started to where you ended? so i can take the train accordingly?

I started and ended in Tokyo as my flights were both in and out of Tokyo but a better route would be Tokyo to Osaka…

Hi there, I am looking to hike and camp around Japan, particularly in the Kumano Kodo area, during my Easter holiday next year. I need some recommendations on websites. And of course I would love to write about my experience there for your blog, maybe in exchange for lending me a gopro or something.

You’re kidding right? I don’t lend out GoPros…

Hey! I wish I saw your blog earier, so many places that I didn’t know of! Also want to climb Mt Fuji next time. When I was there in April there was still some snow up there. Budgeting in Japan is hard, the food looks so amazing everywhere that it’s hard to resist. I’ve managed to travel for around $20-$25, but I was hitchiking a lot. I also couchsurfed a few times but it is still not very popular in Japan, comparing to fe South Korea. Anywho I live in Okinawa now and definietely would recommend you to visit (if you haven’t done it yet…)

I actually havn’t been to Okinawa before but I would love to go; maybe I’ll come visit sometime! 🙂

Really nice post! I’m planning in going to Japan next year and I’m trying to get all the info that I can. I just found this post and is very useful Thank you for share all your knowledge. Grettings from Mexico 😀

Awesome post with great info dear! Thanks for sharing with everyone. I know you have already mentioned, but I recommend to go to the basement of the Department store. We call there ‘Depachika’. You will find all kind of tasty foods including SUSHI, cakes, Japanese sweets and more

Hey, Will! I was just wondering if you climbed any of the “Holy Mountains of Japan” (Fuji, Tate and Haku). I’m currently teaching English in Japan and want to try climbing at least one of them sometime.

I’m dying to get to Japan and this is all very useful info! I’m impressed with your budgeting skills. Awesome! ??????

Thanks for all the tips and useful information! Now I want to visit Japan >_<

Hey Will! Your blog is indeed fantastic and helpful! Im planning to travel in Japan this coming August. but i heard it will be to hot & humid? which month did you travel this beauful place? Looking forward to your reply.. Thanks!

Glad its been a help, Dixie. For me the weather was no problem. Of course its great to visit places at the “best time of the year” but that isn’t always an option. The best plan of action is to make the best of a tricky situation. Hope Japan is awesome for you!

Love this post! I’ve been to Japan twice, once in Tokyo and another in Kyoto, and I am absolutely in love with the country and the culture!

But what must have been an awesome experience was that Samurai picture you posted…how does one go about doing this? Please do tell 🙂

Thanks and I enjoy reading your blog!

Hey Charles! The Samurai experience was definitely one I’ll never forget! I just arranged it through the wonderful world of CouchSurfing actually! Good luck 🙂

Nice! My wife and I included Japan in our backpacking trip this year 2015, and was a great adventure.

Great post! I have been in Japan twice. I was born there and I visited it last year. Now I have business in London. I am so proud that I am Japan. Thank you for sharing your article! I am glad that foreign people could appreciate the beauty of my country. Best regards!

Ohh! I find your article interesting. Not only because I love Tokyo, but also because your tips are truly useful! Thought Japan is an expensive country, I will visit it in the near future!! <3

Hi! First of all thanks for the advices. I’m traveling to Japan maybe next week. I’m planning on staying there for about 2 months. If you have any more recomendations, please let me know. I’m definitely using couch surfing. Do u speak japanese? Is it easy to move around being an english speaker? Did you happen to here about Shirikawa village?

Hey bro, my main recommendation is eat at seven elevens – haha! – nice and cheap! Seriously though, its an amazing country but it is expensive so you need to watch your budget; I didn’t get to Shirikawa village I’m afraid. I speak no Japanese although I can count to ten…
