Japan introduces e-Visa for Indian tourists: From eligibility criteria to application process, here's a complete guide

Japan has streamlined its visa process for indian travellers with the introduction of evisas. here's your quick guide to the hassle-free application process..

Indian passport holders no longer need to carry a physical visa sticker to travel to Japan. From April 1, Japan began issuing eVisas to Indian travellers. The much-awaited Japan e-Visa programme allows anyone to apply for a visa electronically through Japan Visa Application Centres operated by VFS Global. This programme allows visitors to enter Japan for up to 90 days for tourism purposes.

Indian passport holders can now travel to Japan with an eVisa instead of a physical visa sticker. (Pixabay)

Under the revised system, applicants must still submit their applications to the Visa Application Centres overseen by VFS Global, which is the same process as before. However, one notable change is in the way visas are issued. Instead of receiving traditional visa stickers affixed to their passports, successful applicants will now receive electronic visas. (Also read: Travelling to the USA for baseball game? Check these 5 best hotels near major league stadiums that can save your money )

The e-Visa process requires travellers to present a 'visa issuance notice' on their mobile device upon arrival at the airport. It's important to note that internet access is required for this process. Any format other than a digital visa issuance notice, including PDFs, photos, screenshots or printed copies, will not be considered valid.

What are the eligibility criteria

Citizens and residents of the following countries and regions are eligible: Brazil, Taiwan, Singapore, United Arab Emirates, South Africa, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Cambodia, Saudi Arabia, USA. Additionally, Indian citizens and foreign nationals residing in India are also included in the eligibility criteria. Residents of these countries or regions, with exceptions for those exempt from short-term visas, can apply for an eVisa through the Japan e-Visa website.

How to apply

Here's a step-by-step guide to the application process:

Step 1: To initiate the application process, individuals should access the official website of the Japan Visa Application Centre, managed by VFS Global, by visiting https://visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/jpn/.

Step 2: Choose the "Temporary Visitor Visa" option and review all visa requirements carefully. Download the application form, fill it out accurately, and print it. Ensure all fields are completed. Additionally, prepare photocopies of the required documents for the single-entry short-term tourism visa.

Step 3: Schedule an appointment to submit your application at the Visa Application Centre. Once booked, you'll receive a confirmation email for your appointment, which will include the letter of appointment.

Step 4: Submit your completed visa application form at the center during your appointment. Then, wait for an email notification informing you when your decision is ready for collection. You can track the progress of your visa application online using the reference number provided on your invoice or receipt. Approved applicants for the eVisa will receive an electronic visa instead of a physical visa sticker. However, travelers are required to show a "visa issuance notice" on their mobile devices upon arrival at the airport.

Step 5: At the airport check-in, display the "visa issuance notice" on your device. The travel agency will furnish a "Visa Issuance Notice" inclusive of a two-dimensional barcode. Scan the barcode using your device and input the required details to access the notice. Tap "Display" to view the electronic "visa issuance notice."

During the application process, individuals may be required to appear in person at the Japanese overseas establishment with jurisdiction over the applicant's place of residence for an interview.

A 10 day backpacking trip to Japan for an Indian traveler

Photo of Sagar Pradhan

Photo of A 10 day backpacking trip to Japan for an Indian traveler 1/1 by Sagar Pradhan

'Konnichiwa!!!'

As an Indian traveler it is believed the world is very rude towards us. We are made to believe that people from other countries are read to racially abuse us and probably throw us out of hotels.

Well... Japan shattered this image. And how !!!! Japanese people are one of the sweetest people I have come across on the Earth. Extremely humble, hard working and having an extreme care for convenience of others, Japanese people made us fall in love with this beautiful country.

Also, Japan is only expensive when you spend like a millionaire. Japan otherwise gives a lot of budget options for a backpacker budget traveler to enjoy !!!

Below mentioned is step by step guide to ten days in Japan. The itinerary is Jam packed with day to day activity to ensure maximum value for time allocated. :P

Japan is a country filled with contrasts between modern society and ancient traditions. Words of warning: This itinerary packs a lot in, and can feel a bit rushed. We think this would be ideally spread across 10 days.

April is often considered the best time to visit Japan because the cherry blossoms are in full bloom in most regions of the country and the weather is pleasantly mild.

Please note all expenses are inclusive of a couple (2 people) travelling together...

TOURIST VISA - Required Documents

1.Application with Photo - Application from website

3.Travel Booking (Travel itinerary and Hotel Booking); 4.Document to prove ability to pay for travel expenses - (a)Latest Income Tax Return; (b) Bank Statements of last 6 months

Visa Fees for Indian nationals:

Single or multiple entry visa: Rs.440 and Transit visa: Rs.40

Things to remember:

Tokyo, Japan is 3 hours and 30 minutes ahead of India

Most metro stations in Tokyo have English signs, but the system can get confusing. Get a free map beforehand in order not to get lost. Also, remember that public transportation isn’t working 24/7 in Tokyo, so catch the last train before 11pm.

As many streets have no name and not everyone speaks English consider renting a wireless router that will allow you to use google maps.

It can be surprisingly difficult to find an ATM that accepts foreign cards, even in Tokyo. The easiest place to get money is an ATM at 7-Eleven.

There is no tipping when eating out in Japan.

If you enjoyed your dining experience and want to express your gratitude or compliment the chef/service staff, a friendly "Gochiso-sama-deshita" will do.

You can get around almost everywhere in Tokyo with JR trains and Tokyo metro subway lines. Get a "Suica" or "Pasmo" rechargeable card, which you can also use at some shops.

If you need help with directions, you can probably find someone to assist you (in English) at a kōban police box, which you'll find close to most train stations.

Getting around without speaking Japanese is not as scary as you may think. Most people are helpful, and little phrases like "sumimasen" (excuse me) and "arigato" (thank you) go a long way.

Japan Rail Pass:

Information is on passes is available online at www.japanrailpass.net and www.japanrail.com .

Cost:36,000/- INR

• You can use the JR pass to travel between Tokyo, Kyoto, Hiroshima, and many other cities. The pass is good on virtually all JR routes, including the high-speed trains, but not on the ultra-high-speed Nozomi.

• Within Tokyo, you can use the pass on the JR Yamanote line, which makes a circle around central Tokyo, but not on the subways. Within Kyoto, the JR pass is practically useless. Within the Hiroshima area, the JR pass will take you to Miyajima.

• After you arrive in Japan, you exchange the voucher for a pass and set the date that the pass begins. When you do the exchange, you can get all your seat reservations. If you don't get a seat reservation, you can get on the train and find a seat (if available) in an unreserved car.

• With a Rail Pass, you can make seat reservations for free, which otherwise costs ¥510 ($4.25/£2.10) per ride on the Shinkansen.

• The rail pass entitles you to unlimited travel on all JR train lines including the Shinkansen (except, regrettably, the Nozomi Super Express), as well as on most JR buses and the JR ferry to Miyajima.

• The standard Japan Rail Pass is available only to foreigners visiting Japan as tourists and can be purchased only outside Japan.

• Upon purchasing your pass, you'll be issued a voucher (called an Exchange Order), which you'll then exchange for the pass itself after you arrive in Japan. Note that once you purchase your Exchange Order, you must exchange it in Japan for the pass itself within 3 months of the date of issue of the Exchange Order. When obtaining your actual pass, you must then specify the date you wish to start using the pass within a 1-month period.

• Once You've Arrived -- In Japan, you can exchange your voucher for a Japan Rail Pass at more than 40 JR stations that have Japan Rail Pass exchange offices, at which time you must present your passport and specify the date you wish to begin using the pass; most offices are open daily from 10am to 6 or 7pm, some even longer.

• At both Narita Airport (daily 6:30am-9:45pm) and Kansai International Airport (daily 5:30am-11pm), you can pick up Japan Rail Passes at either the Travel Service Center or the Ticket Office

Wi-Fi Rentals:

Operator: Pupuru Pocket Wifi Japan

Cost:6,000/- INR

Website: https://pupuruwifi.com

Any *normal* calls you make or receive will still be charged at your regular roaming rate so try to avoid if you wish to avoid high phone bills (Although the rented MiFi connection should be fast/good enough to make Skype calls if required)

Ensure that your smart phones own mobile data connection remains off as its not needed

Android device users with any 'widgets' on their home screens that require a data connection to update may utilise the data connection more frequently than iOS devices such as ipod/iphone/ipad

They deliver a device to your hotel or airport. At that time, they give a return envelope.

Return method is easy and useful. Just drop a device into mail box by using the envelope.

Any mailbox is OK. You can find it also at airports. If you have trouble, they will support you in English. The important thing is that you need to order at least 3 days before of pick up date.

Japan Suica Card

Cost:10,000/- INR

Japan’s Suica and Pasmo cards are your ticket to ride on Tokyo’s JR trains, private subway lines and Narita’s N’EX express airport train.

Add tap-and-go payment at railway kiosks, convenience stores, buses, taxis and even vending machines, plus other public transport systems in a dozen other parts of the country, and you can see why one of these prepaid ‘e-money’ cards is almost a must-have for business travellers to Japan.

Suica vs Pasmo: which card should you get?

There’s no real difference between Suica and Pasmo cards except that Suica belongs to Japan’s national train operator JR while Pasmo is offered supported by a number of private railway operators.

Each cards works on both train networks, and a variety of train and bus networks in other Japanese cities, so you only need one card to carry around.

You can pick up a Suica card for ¥2,000 ($A22) or a Pasmo for ¥1,500 (A$17) from smartcard ticket machines at most train stations in Tokyo.

Those prices include a refundable ¥500 deposit, so depending on which card you buy you’ll have either ¥1,500 or ¥1,000 as credit.

Train fares for shuttling around central Tokyo are fairly low, at between ¥160 and ¥170 (around A$1.85), so that balance should be enough for a few days.

When buying either card you’ll have the option to register it via the ticket machine’s touchscreen. It’s a quick process which means the card’s balance will be refunded if you lose the card.

ards work with other public transport systems across Japan

Topping up your Suica or Pasmo card

Your card's balance is displayed as you check through a turnstile, or you can just tap it on a vending machine without making a purchase.

To add value to your Suica or Pasmo card, look for a smartcard ticket machines at any railway station.

It’s a quick process but you’ll need to have a few Yen notes on hand (the minimum reload is ¥1,000) as the ticket machines don’t accept credit cards.

Getting a refund on your Suica or Pasmo card

When it’s time to head home, you can get a refund on the balance of your Suica or Pasmo card provided you have conversational Japanese language skills. Yes, there’s always a catch!

Just front up to the station manager’s office at any train station in Tokyo. A ¥210 processing fee will be deducted from your card’s balance but the rest, along with the ¥500 deposit, will be handed back to you in cash.

The name, Ryuzu, can be translated as “Dragon’s Head’, and is so named because its twin falls are said to resemble a dragon’s head. The total height of the falls is 60 meters (197 feet).

From Kegon Waterfalls, it’s a five-seven minute walk to the high-elevation lake created 20,000 years ago by the eruption of Mt. Nantai.

TOKYO [ Departure track No.16 ] – Time: 6.15 Hikari 501, Kyoto Arrival- 9.15

Kyoto is the cultural and traditional capital of Japan and there is much to find in this regard, think about temples, Zen gardens, the imperial castle, geisha’s and samurai.

KYOTO [ Departure track No.8 ] 6 AM - JR Nara Line Local for NARA- 7.20 AM

JR Nara Line: Y690, 45 minutes by express (kaisoku), 70 minutes by local (futsu), departs from JR Kyoto Station in Kyoto and arrives at JR Nara Station in Nara

You’ll most likely start this itinerary at Kintetsu Nara or JR Nara Stations. Either way, get yourself to the fountain just up the stairs from Kintetsu Nara Station to begin this walk.

Walk up Nobori-oji Street. You’ll start to encounter Nara’s famous sacred deer as you go.

Use the underground crossings to get to the northeast corner of the Nobori-oji/Route 169. Walk from there to Isui-en Garden. If you have time, pop into the free and excellent Yoshiki-en next door.

Walk from Isui-en along the backstreets to Todai-ji Temple. Before entering the Daibutsu-den Hall to see the Great Buddha (Daibutsu), walk a little south to check out the Nandai-mon Gate, with its two huge guardian figures.

Enter the Daibutsu-den. Take your time marveling at the Daibutsu and then exit the Daibutsu-den.

Walk along the east wall of the Daibutsu-den and then go up the path that turns up to the right just past the small pond to reach Nigatsu-do Hall.

Check out Nigatsu-do and then walk in the direction of the base of Wakakusa-yama. If you’re traveling at a normal pace, you’ll probably reach this area around lunchtime. See my list of Places To

Eat In Nara for some lunch picks in this area.

Follow the narrow pathways through the forest to Kasuga-Taisha Shrine.

Follow the main path from Kasuga-Taisha all the way west until you reach Kofuku-ji Temple. If you haven’t eaten lunch yet, you’ll find lots of place in the shopping streets nearby (in Downtown Nara and Naramachi)

Return to your lodgings or one of the main train stations.

Activate JR Rail pass- Day 5

KYOTO [ Departure track No.13 ] 7 AM HIROSHIMA [ Arrival track No.12 ] 9.10 AM- SHINKANSEN HIKARI 491

Start/9:30am: Hiroshima Station- After arriving at Hiroshima Station, grab a map at the Tourist Information Center in the station and maybe a cup of coffee. Then, leave via the south exit and head to the street tram stop in front of the station (make sure you have some change to cover the Y160 fare). Take tram #2 or #6 and get off at Genbaku-domu-mae (A-Bomb Dome) about 10 minutes later.

9:45am: Atomic Bomb Dome- You can easily see the famous Atomic Bomb Dome from where you get off the tram. Take some time to observe this sobering sight, then cross nearby Motoyasu-bashi Bridge across the Motoyasu-gawa River and enter the Peace Memorial Park.

10:30am: Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum- I suggest heading straight through the Peace Memorial Park to the Peace Memorial Museum because you want to get there as early as possible to avoid the crowds that descend on the museum as the day progresses. Allow about 90 minutes to explore the museum thoroughly.

Return to Hiroshima Station- To reach the ferry port from Hiroshima Station, take the JR Sanyo Line to Miyajimaguchi Station (25 minutes, 410 yen one way, covered by the Japan Rail Pass).

Arrive Miyajima - Upon arrival on the island, it’s very easy to get oriented. Just walk south along the shoreline in the direction of the famous “floating shrine gate.” Walking from the pier, this means going to your right.

12 PM : Itsukushima-jinja Shrine- Take some time to explore Itsukushima-jinja Shrine and pose for the obligatory photo of yourself with the floating shrine gate in the background.

1:00Pm: Daisho-in Temple- From Itsukushima-jinja, it’s an easy 10-minute walk up to Daisho-in Temple. It’s clearly marked and you can usually just follow the crowds. Take a good hour to explore the temple.

2 PM : Momiji-dani-koen Park- After lunch, follow the small Mitarai-gawa River up into Momiji-dani-koen Park. Mt. Misen via Miyajima Ropeway- Continue up the valley, following the river, to reach the base station of the Miyajima Ropeway. Take the gondola/cable car up to the top station, near the summit of Mt. Misen. Walk from the top station for about 30 minutes to reach the true summit and check out the temples, shrines and views there. From the Niomon Gate down to Daisho-in Temple takes about an hour.

4pm: Finish in the village- If you walk down from Mt. Misen at a leisurely pace, you’ll be back in the village around 4pm. If you’re staying the night on Miyajima, return to your lodgings. Otherwise, head to the piers for a ferry back to the mainland (Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park or Miyajima-guchi and on to Hiroshima).

9:00am: Enter Tenryu-ji Temple and explore the temple.

11:30am: Leave Okochi-Sanso Villa and return to central Arashiyama. Eat a simple lunch of noodles or rice in one of the shokudo (simple eateries) on the main strip.

12:30pm: Take a taxi over to Kinkaku-ji Temple, the famed “Golden Pavilion” in Northwest Kyoto.

1:00pm: Explore Kinkaku-ji Temple. Yes, it will be crowded at this time, but it almost always is.

2:00pm: Take a taxi down to Daitoku-ji Temple and enjoy the peace and quiet of a small subtemple there. Consider Koto-in Temple

Photo of Kyoto, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan by Sagar Pradhan

The Himeji Castle is built in the 17th century where the technology of the original castle construction is said to be at the zenith of Japan technology.

It is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1993, the very first in Japan. Its elegant finished with white lime plasters had always been compared to the flying white egret (Hakuro). To the locals, it is sometimes also known as the Hakuro Castle. Recently the castle is reopened in 2015 after a 5 and a half years renovation, now it is the time to visit this amazing castle.

The architecture itself is one to marvel with and to be studied closely when one had the chance. Though the entrance fee is quite steep at 1000 yen in 2015. Visiting this castle extensively would easily take half a day.

Direct JR special rapid trains (shin-kaisoku) take 90 minutes and cost 2270 yen for the one way trip between Kyoto and Himeji. There are departures roughly every 15 minutes.

india tourist japan

Japan Tourist E-Visa for Indians: Effective April 1, 2024, onwards, Japan has commenced the issuance of eVisas for Indian tourists, the newly introduced system that eliminates the need for physical visa stickers in passports.

This innovative programme enables applicants to electronically apply for visas through designated Japan Visa Application Centres operated by VFS Global. Specifically tailored for tourism purposes, the Japan eVisa offers a single-entry short-term visa allowing a stay of up to 90 days in Japan. 

india tourist japan

The eligibility extends to both Indian citizens and foreign nationals residing in India, and the application process remains centralised through the Visa Application Centres managed by VFS Global, streamlining the procedure.

For Indian citizens seeking a Japan tourist visa, h ere is how to initiate the Japan visa application process:

Step 1: visit the official website..

  • To start the application, individuals need to visit the Japan Visa Application Centre’s official website, managed by VFS Global, at https://visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/jpn/ .

Step 2: Download and fill out the application form.

  • Click on this link and choose  Temporary Visitor Visa .
  • Check all the requirements for the visa and download the visa application form from the website.
  • Complete the form accurately, print it in its entirety, and ensure all required fields are filled.
  • Prepare photocopies of the necessary documents for the single-entry short-term tourism visa.

Step 3: Book an appointment.

  • Schedule an appointment to submit your application at the Visa Application Centre.
  • Upon booking, one will receive an appointment confirmation email containing the letter of appointment.

Successful applicants for the eVisa will receive an electronic visa instead of having a traditional visa sticker attached to their passports. However, travellers are required to display a “visa issuance notice” on their phones when they arrive at the airport as part of the operational process.

Step 5: Display the issuance notice:

A 12-Day Detailed Itinerary For Japan Under ₹80,000 Trip Cost

A 12-Day Detailed Itinerary For Japan Under ₹80,000 Trip Cost

A 12-Day Detailed Itinerary For Japan Under ₹80,000 Trip Cost

I was always fancied by Japan in multiple ways. And after having been enticed by its culture and food through videos for over a year, I finally decided to experience its intrinsic culture in person. From a truly delectable traditional cuisine to the awe-inspiring Bullet train, it is amazing how Japan has managed to tie tradition and modernity with a single thread. It’s a perfect place for solo travellers, friends, couples and even families. Despite the language barrier, Japan surely knows how to mesmerize you. 

So, if you’re someone who has been fascinated by Japanese culture, or if you’ve grown up watching Anime, then count me as your friend! I am Yogita Chainani, a travel lover, and I went for a 12-day trip to Japan along with my sister in April 2019. We went to Tokyo, Kyoto and Nara, and this is how we planned our trip at ₹80,000. Here is our itinerary for Japan. 

Things To Keep In Mind While Planning A Trip To Japan

Flight Cost: We were tracking the flight costs for over a month before finally booking it. We booked the flight tickets through SkyScanner, and the return flights cost us ₹ 26,000 per person. 

Visa: When it comes to Visa, the process was quite simple. We paid ₹500 per person for a single entry visa, which was valid for a month.

Stay: Keeping the budget in mind, we chose to stay in a hostel over a hotel. For Tokyo, we booked the DEN hostel, which is nestled in the Kanda area of Tokyo and is around 50 minutes from Haneda airport. While travelling for 6 nights and 7 days, we paid ₹10,000 per head, which is decent for the quality of the place. In Kyoto, we booked the Len Kyoto hostel, and for 4 nights and 5 days where we paid ₹8,000 per head. As for Nara, we made a day trip, so we didn’t have to make any bookings. We used the HostelWorld app to book both the hostels. 

Transfers: Travelling in and around Japan is expensive. Hence, to save up on the travelling cost, we had bought a Japan Rail Pass for ₹18,000. The pass covered most of our travel expenses in the country. Right from local JR lines to selected Bullet train rides, everything got covered with this pass. Apart from this, for private buses and metros, we spent an additional ₹5,000 per person. For transfers from the airport to the hostel in Tokyo, we took a limousine bus, which cost ₹650 per person. 

Food: We set a budget, and roughly spent ₹4,000 (₹2,000 per person), which is about 6000 Japanese yen on food per day. Sometimes it was a bit more, and sometimes it was less. So, our overall food cost was ₹ 20,000 per person, which also included drinks. 

Itinerary for Japan

Best Time to Visit Japan: Japan is known for its Cherry Blossom season and if you intend to visit this futuristic country, then plan your trip between March-May. Not only March to May, but September to January is also an ideal time to visit Japan. The weather is quite pleasant, humidity is low, and the cold climate makes it easy for travellers to explore the place throughout the day. I travelled to Japan in April, and here’s my 12-days, day by day itinerary.

We boarded the 11PM flight from Terminal 2- Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport in Mumbai to Singapore Changi Airport, from where we took a connecting flight to Haneda Airport, Japan. We flew with Singapore Airlines, and I must say, it’s my favourite. The flight from Mumbai to Singapore was about 5 hours and 40 minutes. We had about an hour and 10 minutes of layover in Singapore, and the flight from here to Haneda was about 7 hours and 30 minutes. After reaching Haneda airport, we cleared our immigration, activated our Japan Rail Pass and took a limousine bus to reach Tokyo. The bus ticket cost us ₹630 per person. 

We checked in the hostel, DEN, on Day 1 and passed out immediately. The next day, we woke up early with the faint rays of the sun, got ready and spoke to our hostel manager, who guided us to the nearest metro station. Kanda metro station was at a walking distance from the hostel. On our way, we grabbed some hot coffee, sandwiches and a bottle of water from a nearby Seven-Eleven. These are convenience stores that are open 24×7. 

I must say Seven-Eleven is a hit in Japan, and right from a cup of Joe to hearty Ramen meals, you can find everything at an affordable rate. After sipping some coffee, we took a train to Harajuku station. Our first spot of the day was Takeshita Dori, which is located at a walking distance from Harajuku. 

Itinerary for Japan

Takeshita Dori will take you one step closer to the famous Japanese Pop and Kawaii Culture. Right from street artists to a plethora of picturesque cafes and side stalls, Takeshita is a street that you cannot miss. And while you are there, don’t forget to try the delicious crepes. From Chocolate to Bacon Crepe, there are tonnes of options to choose from. We had a lip-smacking crepe at Santa Monica Crepe, and it was worth every bite.

Itinerary for Japan

After spending a good 2-3 hours in Takeshita Dori, we explored the Harajuku area of Tokyo. For lunch, we kept it light and ate some Mozzarella Sticks from a roadside stall while sipping on some famous Japanese bubble tea. At around 5PM, we headed to the famous Meiji Jingu Shrine, which is known for its unmatchable beauty. The entry to the shrine is free, and the entrance from the massive Torii gate for this shrine will inevitably transport you to a different world.

Itinerary for Japan

After getting bewitched by the spellbinding magnificence of this shrine, we made our way back to Harajuku. We went for dinner to Cafe Lagoon in Harajuku and ended our night on a merry note. Post that- we headed back to our accommodation. 

For us, Day 3 was all about exploring the culture of Japan. Hence, we decided to explore the Asakusa area of Tokyo. We grabbed some coffee from Seven-Eleven and headed to Kanda station to board a metro for Asakusa. We got down at Asakusa station and walked for 10 minutes to reach the pristine Sensoji Temple and I can never forget that sight. Sensoji is one of the oldest temples in Japan, and the entry to the temple is free. 

Itinerary for Japan

We walked around the temple, observed the locals for a while and headed to Nakamise Dori, which was just 2 minutes from the Sensoji Temple. 

Nakamise Dori is known for its local cuisine, souvenirs shops and also gives you a stellar view of the Tokyo sky tree. By the time we finished exploring the street, it was already lunchtime. So we gave local Japanese cuisines a try and savoured some red bean, Hello Kitty Pancakes and Ramen in Nakamise Dori.

india tourist japan

Post that, we headed straight to the Tourist Information Center of Japan, which again was a short walk from the temple. Tourist Information is also famous as an observatory. The entry to the observatory was free.

Itinerary for Japan

We bought some coffee from the cafe and observed the magnificent Tokyo skyline from the top. It was around 6:30 pm, and we decided to explore more of Asakusa. We manoeuvred around the area and headed back to the hostel by 12:30 am. 

After spending three glorious days in Japan, Tokyo had already become home. We woke up with lots of excitement, chit-chatted with our fellow hostellers and ventured out to visit the famous and the most luxurious street of Japan, Ginza. Right from Louis Vuitton to Prada, you’ll find all the high-end stores in here. We shopped a bit from Gap and Adidas, we got some top-notch quality products at insane prices.

Itinerary for Japan

After exploring Ginza, we went to Shibuya. While Shibuya is known for the world-famous Shibuya Crossing, it’s also known for Hachiko Statue, the beautiful Yoyogi Park and theme cafes. We explored the area, spent some time at Yoyogi Park and by that time, it was already evening. So we headed straight to witness the iconic Shibuya crossing- a crossing where hundreds of people – and at times thousands of people – cross at a time, coming from all directions at once.

Itinerary for Japan

Once done enjoying the Shibuya crossing, we shopped a bit from Zara and Forever 21 and headed to TGIF in Shibuya. We ate, shot some pictures for the gram and enjoyed the nightlife in Shibuya. 

On day 5, we decided to take it a bit slow. We chilled in our hostel for a while, interacted with fellow travellers from London, South Korea and Canada, and left the hostel at around 1PM for Shinjuku. We visited the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, which again is a famous observatory in Tokyo, and on a clear day, you get to witness the sight of Mount. Fuji from the observatory.

Itinerary for Japan

The entry to the observatory was free. We spent some time appreciating the majestic Tokyo skyline and then explored Shinjuku for a while before catching a bus for Akihabara.

Itinerary for Japan

If you love Anime and arcade games, then Akihabara is for you. I wanted to win at least one Dragonball toy, but I couldn’t, hard luck!  After the gaming session, we went to the famous Yodobashi Camera centre in Akihabara and shopped for some Bluetooth headphones. We ended the night by eating pizza, ramen and sipping some sake in Akihabara. 

This was the day when I shopped till I dropped, and I am not kidding. I had researched about outlet malls in Tokyo and had decided to buy things from there itself. The outlet mall was on the outskirts of Tokyo, but the ride was completely worth it. We boarded a train for Mitsui Outlet Mall at Tokyo Station and got down at Kaihin-Makuhari Station. From there the outlet mall was at a walking distance. There was a 60% off deal going on for all items in the mall. I treated myself to a Michael Kors wallet at flat 90% off.

Itinerary for Japan

We spent around 8 hours in the mall, and in the end, we were too exhausted to go anywhere else, so we ate something at McDonald’s, and headed back to our hostel.

It was our last day in Tokyo, and we wanted to make the most of it. We explored our neighbourhood, went to see the Tokyo Skytree and Tokyo Tower.  For us, we didn’t buy a ticket for the observatory since we had already enjoyed a free view of the majestic skyline from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building in Shinjuku. We visited a few cafes, tried some Matcha Ice Cream and headed back to the hostel.

The time had arrived to bid adieu to the vibrant city of Tokyo. With heavy hearts and a bucket full of memories to cherish for eternity, we checked out from our hostel, brought some snacks for our train ride and headed to Tokyo Station. And finally, we boarded the bullet train from Tokyo to Kyoto.

Itinerary for Japan

It was a smooth and pleasant ride, and guess what – the bullet train had wifi too!

We reached Kyoto at around 5PM, and from there caught a bus for Kawaramachi- the area where our hostel was. It was 6 pm when we reached the hostel, we checked in, freshened up, spoke to our roommates and headed out to explore the Kawaramachi area of Kyoto.

Itinerary for Japan

For dinner, we ate some food at the hostel bar and called it a night. 

After exploring the nightlife and pop culture of Tokyo, it was time to experience a mellow version of Japan by exploring its former capital, Kyoto. We had planned a list of things, and hence we ventured out at 7.30AM itself. 

We grabbed a bite from the nearby Seven-Eleven and headed straight to the salient Arashiyama’s Bamboo Forest. The forest is both locally famous and world-renowned and the entry is free.

Itinerary for Japan

From dense forests to cherry blossoms to throbbing autumn Kyoto colours, Arashiyama was a visual delight during this season. We explored the tranquil forest area and visited a few other spots in the nearby locality.

Itinerary for Japan

Post that we headed to the famous Nishiki Market. Almost 400 years old, this place is a fresh food market and is lined with over a hundred restaurants and shops. The market was lively and allowed us to taste Japan’s culinary culture at its finest. After savouring some food and drinking some OG bubble tea, we headed back to our hostel, which was at a walking distance from the market.

We left early and headed to Fushimi Inari. This place is known for its tunnels of more than 10,000 closely-spaced orange torii gates that wind over the hills of Mt. Inari beyond the entrance to the shrine.

Itinerary for Japan

One can also dress like Geisha and explore this beautiful place. We went a bit late to this place and couldn’t grab good pictures.  But if you want to take some fab shots for the gram, then try visiting this place as early as possible.

Itinerary for Japan

After getting spellbind by the captivating beauty of this place, we headed to the famous Gion district of Kyoto. We manoeuvred around and got to know more about Geisha culture while exploring some beautiful alleys of Gion district.

We celebrated our time in Kyoto by tasting some Japanese beer and absorbed the traditional culture on the banks of Kyoto’s scenic main waterway. Post that, we went to the famous Pontocho Alley, where traditional culture and Geisha still thrive.

It was officially our last day in Kyoto. And since we were short on time, we boarded a train to Nara, which is known for its slow-paced life. On the way to Nara, we enjoyed the sight of the beautiful fields and quaint villages of Japan.

Itinerary for Japan

We visited the famous Kasuga Grand Shrine and also explored the old  Nara market. After exploring the streets of Nara for a few hours, we headed back to Kyoto. Post that, we ate something, packed our bags and slept early that day. 

We checked out of our hostel in Kyoto and headed to Kyoto station. We caught our bullet train for Tokyo station. After reaching Tokyo station, we again took an Airport liner for the Haneda Airport terminal. We spent the final few hours at the Haneda airport before bidding goodbye to the exalted country of Japan. 

Things I haven’t included: I went a bit crazy with shopping, so haven’t included the detailed pricing for the same.

Final Thoughts on Japan:

Japan has been exceptional in distinct ways. Just in 13 days, this country managed to give me the memories of a lifetime.

Itinerary for Japan

Japan will always have my heart. It is a country that taught me language is just a medium of communication. And people can still help each other without knowing the language. The amicable town of Kyoto made me fall in love with the culture, while Tokyo made me feel livelier than ever.

Things To Remember: 

We wanted to visit Robot Cafe, but couldn’t, because we didn’t know that the tickets had to be booked online at least 15 days in advance. So if you intend to visit Robot Cafe, book your tickets in advance. 

If you are planning to go in March or April, do carry a thick jacket and an umbrella with you. The weather gets unpredictable at times, and you don’t want to freeze in the cold. 

We visited Japan in April, which is also a month where people across the country get a one-week holiday, it’s known as their Golden week. Hence, we skipped crowded cafes and Disneyland. 

People in Japan are warm, helpful and kind. So when in doubt, always ask for help! 

Lastly, do not litter on the streets and trains; it’s highly looked down upon. Also, if possible, avoid taking calls on the train- it’s considered a bit rude.

Safety Measures For Japan Tour

Some of the safety measures for the travelers to follow when traveling in Japan are -

  • Avoid contact with people who are sick
  • Wash your hands regularly or use sanitizer. Sanitizers are easily available in Japan
  • Avoid touching your face with unwashed hands
  • Cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing and maintain social distancing at all times
  • Japan is a safe country for tourists. It is ranked 26 out of 162 of the safest and most dangerous cities in the world. However, overall crime scene and risk is low as compared to other countries.
  • Although Japan has a low rate of overall crime, there are reports of petty thefts and robberies. Be careful of pickpockets in Japan, especially in crowded areas and public transport. Keep your valuables close to you and do not leave anything unattended.
  • Japan has very low crime record of kidnapping or mugging. But you should keep away from strangers or people who seem too over-friendly. Do not accept anything from strangers and avoid street touts who might be seen in your neighbourhoods.
  • Do not carry a huge amount of cash to any public places in Japan. Reports of fraudulent credit card charges have been frequently registered with the police. Make transactions on your own and do not let any vendor or waiter intrude.

Useful Travel Tips For Japan Tour

  • It is suggested to check the weather conditions during the time you are planning for a vacation in Japan before you book the travel package
  • Carry a Japanese to English language dictionary. Even though the latter language is used in Japan, most of the places won’t offer the benefit of translation
  • Although Japan is a technologically advanced country, it is still very far from being a cashless society. Therefore, withdrawing money from the ATMs available here is the best idea. You can easily find a 7-Bank ATM inside a 7-eleven store on the departure floor at Narita Airport in Tokyo
  • Japan has the most efficient public transport system in the world - 150 lines and 2000 stations of overground and underground rail. Only challenge is to figure out the ways to commute along these stations. Download the app Hyperdia on your phone for a hassle-free commute around Japan
  • If you are travelling on your own in Japan, you must figure out the best accommodations before you reach there. Location is essentially important in Japan because it helps you save time and money. Some of the preferred locations among tourists are Shinjuku and Shibuya in Tokyo, Ginza and Tokyo Station areas.
  • If you are planning to spend most of the time outdoors, it is better to get a pocket wifi or 4G sim card of your own. Hotels and restaurants offer wi-fi but it is not feasible while you are on the go
  • People in Japan wear masks to avoid getting infected by germs and infecting others if they are ill. You may also choose to get a sterilized mask for your own health benefits
  • Convenience stores are open 24-hours a day in Japan. For any random needs at any time of the day, head to any of the convenience stores near your hotel or station
  • Tipping is a strict NO in Japan. Under any circumstances, do not tip the waiters or servicemen in restaurants, cafes or coffee places.
  • Get your personal smartphone from home. You can buy a sim card in Japan and use your phone anywhere. Since wi-fi is not available everywhere in Japan, you need to get a 4G sim card in Japan
  • Pack a comfortable pair of shoes and modest clothes which won’t show off too much skin. Also, make sure that your shoes are easy to take off. A lot of tourist places in Japan, which include temples, restaurants and ryokans (Japanese inns) ask everyone to take shoes off before entering.
  • The power outlets in Japan are usually 2-pinned polarized outlets, where one slot is slightly wider than the other. If you have any 3-pinned appliances, then you must pack an adaptor for the same
  • If you are on a prescribed medication, make sure to pack your medicines before you leave for Japan. Although some medicines are easily available in Japan, others may be difficult to find
  • Travel insurance for Japan must always be packed along with other important documents and identity proofs

Japan launches e-Visas for Indian tourists. Here's how you can apply | DETAILS

The much-awaited japan e-visa programme was launched in india on april 1 and is valid for up to 90 days. the move aims to streamline the process of obtaining a visa to enable short-term travel from several countries to japan..

Aveek Banerjee

The programme began in India on April 1. Under this e-Visa programme, Indian tourists no longer need to carry a physical passport to enter Japan. The programme is also available for travellers from Australia, Brazil, Cambodia, Canada, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, Taiwan, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom and the United States.

The much-awaited Japan e-Visa programme can be availed through the Japan Visa Application centres operated by VFS Global. Under this revised system, tourists planning to visit Japan have to submit their applications to the Visa Application Centres, after which they will be able to receive electronic visas, thus removing the need to carry physical passport stickers.

How to apply Japan e-Visa?

Internet access is a must to file for an e-Visa for entering Japan. A digital 'visa issuance notice' must be presented to the authorities upon arrival at the airport, and any other format than that, including photos and screenshots, will not be considered valid for entry. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to avail an e-Visa for Japan.

  • To initiate the process of applying for an e-Visa, individuals must first access the official website of the Japan Visa Application Centre, managed by VFS Global, through https://visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/jpn/ .
  • From there on, individuals can choose the "Temporary Visitor Visa" option and review all requirements carefully. Tourists must download the application form and fill it out accurately before printing it. Correct documents must be provided by the individuals.
  • Individuals can then schedule an appointment to submit their application at the Visa Application Centre. Once they have booked their appointment, they will receive an appointment confirmation email along with their letter of appointment.
  • After the visa application form is submitted at the centre, the tourists will have to pay their application fee. After that, the tourists will have to wait for an email notification informing them of when the e-Visa is ready for collection. Approved applicants will receive an e-Visa instead of a physical visa. Individuals can also track their visa application status online using the reference number from the invoice or receipt issued by the centre.
  • While checking in at the airport, individuals will be required to display a "visa issuance notice" from their mobile devices, provided by the travel agency in either printed or PDF forms. The notice can be displayed by scanning a two-dimensional barcode with their devices and entering the required information. A countdown timer shown at the top right indicates that the notice is valid.

During the application process, the tourists planning to visit Japan may be requested to appear in person at the Japanese overseas establishment with jurisdiction over the place of the applicant's residence for an interview. By adhering to the stipulated criteria, Indian tourists can experience a seamless travel experience to Japan on a tourist e-Visa, valid for 90 days.

Cherry blossoms, tea ceremonies, calligraphy and poetry mingle to create an unrivalled experience on your Japan tour. Despite its comparatively tiny size, there’s so much to discover in East Asia’s cultural gem. Japan tour packages offer a variety of experiences for travellers who want to delve into the country's culture and traditions. If you're looking for a fully organised Japan trip, the Japan tour packages from Thomas Cook might be the way to go. Japan is a study of dichotomy and cultural coexistence between traditional belief systems and values and an ultramodern way of life. Days are marked by quiet disciplined dedication to work that is the hallmark of life in Japan and evenings bring out the raw, energetic playful side of Japan awash in a sea of neon and sake. Like the Taoist principle of ‘Yin’ and ‘Yang’, prevalent in China, Japanese culture has ‘In’ and ‘Yo’, a belief in opposing cosmic forces coexisting in perfect harmony.  If you want an example of a country that works extra hard, and plays even harder, look no further than Japan. This is primarily why Japan is seen as a benchmark for a modern culture that many others aspire to. Organised chaos is the name of the game in Japan. To the casual observer on a Japanese holiday, Japan may appear hectic, crowded and unorganised even, but this is far from the truth. Japan is like a giant jigsaw puzzle where thousands of pieces fit perfectly without any dissonance. Japan tourism is one of these pieces and it manages to fit right in among the many other facets, making a visit to Japan feel alien and homely at the same time. The birthplace of Sushi, the playground of technology, the land from which sleek skyscrapers rise and Anime characters come to life, wouldn’t you like to experience this all? Japan tours are designed to allow you to experience the best of this dichotomy, whether you're interested in visiting ancient temples and experiencing traditional tea ceremonies, or exploring the bright lights and cutting-edge technology of Tokyo . Mountains, volcanoes, forests and sand dunes, let Japan’s natural marvels pull you further and further in on your Japanese holiday with a variety of Japan tour packages from Thomas Cook!

  • The country is home to more senior citizens than children.
  • Japan operates the greatest number of vending machines in the world.
  • Fruit is one of the best gifts in Japan.
  • Slurping noodles is an act of politeness. 
  • In Japan, you bow instead of shaking hands. 
  • It’s forbidden to bathe in hot springs if one has a tattoo. 

Come sun, rain or snow, Japan shines bright. An all year-round wonder, travellers can enjoy a multitude of unique experiences across its wonderfully diverse cities. Whether you make a trip in summer, spring or winter, you will be in for a major surprise.So, the best time to visit Japan will depend on what you’d like to see. Spring is known for its iconic cherry blossoms and pleasant days spent ambling around the cities or cycling around rural Japan. Summer is all about the Alpine flowers and autumn infuses the landscapes with red-gold foliage. Winter, on the other hand, is a snowy wonderland where you can soak in one of Japan’s many geothermal hot springs or spend time in a traditional bathhouse with its wooden hot tubs. You can easily find Japan tour packages scheduled for any of these seasons on our website. Japan has many festivals to mark the changing seasons, depending upon the festivals you wish to partake in and the sights you wish to drink in, your choice of travel will vary. Note - Thomas Cook has special Japan tour packages and itineraries for those wishing to partake in the splendour of the cherry blossoms.

The fastest and most efficient way of reaching Japan is via flight . Narita Airport, Osaka International Airport, Kansai Airport and Haneda Airport make up the prime international airports in Japan, offering connectivity to all major Indian cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai. Individuals may select from the following carriers to make the trip - Jet Airways, Air India, Korean Air, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Jet Star, Cathay Pacific and China Airlines. With Thomas Cook’s Japan tour packages, getting to Japan is the easy part, leaving Japan after a mind-blowing Japanese trip is the hard part. Most popular Japan tour packages offered on our page feature the choice of included and optional flights. There’s also the scenic route for all those traveling from Korea , China, Taiwan and Russia, who can reach Japan via ferry. Get more details on how to reach Japan .

Tokyo is one of the 47 prefectures in Japan and has served as its capital since 1869. It is a must visit Tokyo in Japan  on every Japanese tour as it encapsulates what Japan stands for, an ultramodern metropolis with traditional values. It is also a global capital when it comes to culture, fashion and gastronomy. Anime fans will jump at the opportunity to visit the Studio Ghibli museum in Mitaka. Devotees of the art of Japanese cuisine will jump at the chance to savour delicacies like ramen, sushi and tempura at one of Japan’s many Michelin-starred restaurants. Party animals can hit up karaoke bars at Shinjuku or nearby Kabuki Cho where the party never stops. Tokyo is often seen as the starting point in the itinerary of most Japan tour packages.

Though their names have the same letters, Tokyo and Kyoto are the opposites of each other. Here you will find Buddhist temples, Shinto shrines, minimal Zen gardens, imperial palaces and traditional Japanese wooden houses. Kyoto in Japan is also the setting for the film Memoirs of a Geisha and taking a tour of the filming locations will invariably take you to some of Kyoto’s most famous landmarks such as the Fushimi Inari Shrine and Kiyomizu temple. Kyoto is also the home of Kaiseki cuisine, a style of traditional Japanese cuisine renowned for its simplicity, intricate presentation and subtle flavour. Just like Tokyo, you can easily find Japan tour packages that include a visit to Kyoto.

The ancient city of Nara in Japan is famous for its ancient temples and is steeped in history. Visit the Todai-ji temple with its 15m tall bronze Buddha called Daibutsu. There’s also the Nara park attached to this temple where you can watch cute Japanese deer roam freely. Established in the year 710, Nara is home to Naramachi a former market district that is lined with old Japanese houses some of which are over a century old. For a taste of Japan’s medieval history visit Heijo Palace which was an imperial palace and the seat of the emperor back when Nara was the capital of Japan. Explore the ancient beauty of Nara and other Japanese cities with the Japan holiday packages offered on our website.

This is Japan’s second largest island after the mainland, Honshu. Hokkaido is sandwiched between snowy alps and the sea, making its diverse geography a must see on your Japan tour. This is a land of lakes and parks. Visit Daisetsuzan National Park with its geothermal hot springs and steaming, volcanic mount Asahi, from where the famous Japanese beer Asahi gets its name. There’s also Shikotsu-Toya National Park with its lakes formed from volcanic caldera and Mount Yotei, Mount Fuji’s twin peak. The ski towns of Rusutsu, Niseko and Furano are an Asian Alpine paradise where you can ski, snowboard or make snow angels. Experience your dream vacation with affordable Japan packages available on our page. 

You may remember Mt. Fuji in Japan from the Godzilla movies, or any other film set in Japan for that matter. Mt. Fuji features prominently in any mention of Japan and occupies a place of pride in the Japanese mind who lovingly call it ‘Fuji-san’ as they would a friend or acquaintance. It is one of the three most sacred mountains in Japan and has been a pilgrimage site since the 3rd century. Hiking to the summit of this active volcano is one of the most popular activities you can undertake, passing through forests, past Sinto and Buddhist shrines and an ethereal beauty with a subtle muted colour palette featuring nature and the elements that is the hallmark of Japan. Consider looking for Japan tour packages from India that feature a day trip to Mt. Fuji.

Hiroshima has entered the history books for all the wrong reasons. It was the site of one of the worst acts of war during World War 2. It has since bounced back and now stands as a proud reminder of the resilience of the Japanese people. Hiroshima in Japan is now a modern city and a centre of trade and commerce with its own unique microculture and nightlife. A must visit on your Japan tour while you’re in Hiroshima is the A-Bomb dome, the only structure left standing after the city was destroyed and the Peace Memorial Park where the Flame of Peace, a fire that burns and will continue to burn until global nuclear disarmament is achieved, can be found. You can effortlessly find Hiroshima in the trip itinerary of many Japan tour packages from India. 

Ishigaki is the most popular island in the Yaeyama Islands in Japan’s Okinawa prefecture. It is a tropical paradise known for beaches and sites for snorkelling, diving and surfing as well as the commercial hub of the Yaeyama Islands. Within Ishigaki’s Iriomote-Ishigaki National Park lies the Shiraho Reef's rare blue coral. This is an example of the geographical diversity of Japan and is a must visit on your Japan tour. So, make sure to look for Japan packages that include a visit to Ishigaki.

Osaka in Japan is a large port city and commercial centre on the island of Honshu. It's known for its modern architecture, nightlife and lip-smacking street food such as yakitori and teriyaki. It is also the location of the 16th-century Osaka Castle, its main historical landmark which is surrounded by a moat and park with plum, peach and cherry-blossom trees making it a must visit during your vacation in Japan. Sumiyoshi-taisha is among Japan’s oldest Shinto shrines and one of Osaka’s most visited tourist landmarks where you can spend a peaceful day after a night out in Osaka. So, if you are interested in experiencing everything Osaka has to offer, look for Japan trip packages that include this port city in its itinerary. 

Yakushima is an island in the Kagoshima Prefecture of Japan. It is famous for its cedar forests which contain some of Japan’s oldest trees. The beaches here are also famous for being seasonal nesting grounds for loggerhead turtles. Nature lovers and budding naturalists are known to throng to these beaches during hatching season to watch tiny turtle hatchlings take their first steps towards the sea. Spend your dream vacation with your loved one in Yakushima by going for the professionally created Japan trip packages by Thomas Cook. 

Hakuba, a common inclusion in many Japan trip packages, is a village in the Japanese Alps, just outside the city of Nagano, which was host of the 1998 Winter Olympics. A winter sports hub, Hakuba is dotted with mountain resorts and mountainous terrain perfect for skiing, snowboarding and hiking. The Hakuba Ski Jumping Stadium, built for the 1998 games, at the base of the Happo-one resort is where you can watch daredevil skiers speed down the slopes before leaping off the ramp at the end. Hakuba village also offers grades of skiing for novices and experts alike and hot springs for you to beat the cold after a long day carving up the slopes.

Cuisine in Japan

Inspired by exotic regional produce and fresh seasonal ingredients, Japan creates gastronomical delights that continue to take the world by the storm. Some of its best and most traditional dishes include sushi (raw fish in fermented rice rolls), sashimi (thinly sliced raw fish), tempura (battered seafood/vegetables), yakitori (chicken skewers), tsukemono (pickles), udon (noodles) and sukiyaki (beef). Historically influenced by the Chinese, today Japanese cuisine has opened itself up to the influences of western cuisines. So, even when browsing through available Japan travel packages that include meals, make sure to do your own research on the local cuisine to get the best out of your trip.

Take a ramen tour of Japan

Ramen, known worldwide as an instant convenience food, is an artform in Japan. Witch types and styles of ramen that vary from prefecture to prefecture, taking a ramen tour of Japan makes perfect sense for the gastronomically inclined. Slurp ramen with miso, corn and plump scallops from Hokkaido, or try the shoyu ramen in Tokyo, with its light flavourful broth. Purists can try the tonkatsu ramen at Yokohama’s Chinatown, where this hearty dish was born on their Japan tour. 

Train like a sumo wrestler

Tokyo’s Tomioka Hachiman Shrine is the birthplace of sumo wrestling. Your Japan tour must include a pitstop at this temple to check out the temple and the neighbouring Ryogoku district where you will find dohyo’s or dojo’s or schools where sumo wrestlers live and train. Watch these gentle giants in action as they push, pull and throw each other around. Some dojos will allow you to partake in the action with a one-day sumo training course after which you can sit down to a hearty meal of Chankonabe, a specialty soup eaten by sumo wrestlers. 

Climb Mount Fuji

Mount Fuji, affectionately called Fujisan by the Japanese is an active volcano and Japan’s most iconic geographical landmark. It lies to the south west of Japan’s capital- Tokyo. One of the adventurous things to do in Japan is to climb the popular Mount Fuji in the months of July and August. Visitors can even enjoy the breath-taking views from either of these places- the Shin-Fuji station, from the top of the Chureito pagoda or any of the five lakes that surround the mountain. Experience Mount Fuji and various other Japanese wonders with the Japan travel packages by Thomas Cook.

Cheer Yourself Up with Japanese Cherry Blossoms 2024

People flock to gardens all over Japan to enjoy an evening of food, drinks, and music under the newly blossomed cherry trees and celebrate the view of the delicate pink sakura and ume flowers. Being in the Honshu region of Japan during the months of March and April is one of the best things to do in Japan. 

But when is the best time to visit? How to celebrate the cherry blossom festival? Read on to get answers to all your questions about the Japan cherry blossom.

When is the Japan Cherry Blossom Season 2024?

You can witness the beautiful colors of the cherry blossom season from April to May . However, the exact time depends on the location and weather conditions. 

The blooming period lasts two weeks on average. And the flowers remain in full bloom for a few days. That's why you must plan carefully if you want to catch the beauty of the cherry blossom season in Japan. 

The blossoms start from north to south. That means the Kanto and Kansai regions will be the earliest to witness the flowers. And the Tohoku region would witness it latest. 

Best Places to See Japan Cherry Blossom

You can enjoy the beauty of cherry blossoms in many places in Japan. There are many parks and gardens where the cherry trees are in full bloom during spring. 

Tokyo, Kyoto, Hokkaido, and Osaka are the favorites of tourists for enjoying the beautiful blooming flowers. Tokyo has several large parks and gardens where you can see the flowers and have picnics with your friends and family. 

Here are some of the top places to enjoy the Japan cherry blossom season – 

  • Ueno Park, Tokyo
  • Meguro River, Tokyo
  • Philosopher’s Walk, Kyoto
  • Mount Yoshino, Nara Prefecture 
  • Hirosaki Castle Park, Aomori Prefecture

How is the Japan Cherry Blossom Festival Celebrated?

The Japanese appreciate the beauty of cherry blossoms. The celebrations' main goal is to recognize life's transient nature. Just like the beautiful flowers, nothing is permanent in life. 

They call their celebrations Hanami. It means flower viewing. Families gather outdoors and have picnics and parties while admiring the flowers.  

Want to take part in Hanami? It's easy. 

  • Look for the perfect spot to enjoy the beauty of cherry blossoms.
  • Now, get your food and drinks ready.

You can ask a friendly Japanese policeman for a ride and they will ensure you are dropped off home safe and sound, a unique experience on your Japan tour for sure.

Visit the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum

Japan is the only country in the history of the world to have been attacked with an atomic weapon. The tragic day of August 9, 1945 is still remembered all over the world. To honour those who lost their lives in the incident and the efforts of the Japanese Government to spread awareness about the repercussions of the weapon used in the regions of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, led to the establishment of the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum. Visiting this museum on your Japan trip is a sobering reminder of the horrors of war.

Spend a day at Disney Sea

Disney Sea in Tokyo is one of Disney’s most famous amusement parks worldwide. Thomas Cook’s Japan tours give you the option to visit this magical place where you can spend the day taking exciting rides and having fun with a host of cartoon characters from your childhood.

Visit the KitKat Museum

If like us you’re a fan of KitKat, the KitKat Chocolatery Museum in Tokyo is a must visit. Here you can find delicious flavours such as strawberry cheesecake, matcha (green tea) and almond cranberry. You can explore the processes behind the manufacture of these tasty treats and even customize your own with a wide assortment of ingredients. This is sure to add magic to your Japan tour.

Indian nationals planning their foreign trip to Japan should know that they are required to have a Japan visa in order to gain entry into the country. To do so offline, individuals will need to apply for it at the Japanese embassy or consulate in India (Mumbai, New Delhi and Kolkata). On the other hand, they can also apply for a Japan visa online. Some Japan tour packages include visas as a part of the package. The validity period of a Japan tourist visa is up to three months after its issuance. This type of visa is a single-entry visa that allows a stay of up to 90 days. Individuals are required to submit all the necessary documents and pay the visa fees when applying for this visa. Even though Indian tourists will need to get a tourist visa prior to their arrival in Japan, it is suggested not to apply for it earlier than 45 days from the planned date of travel. In general, the essential documents that Indian citizens are required to produce when applying for a Japan tourist visa include a valid passport, fully filled and signed visa application form, an original passport, accommodation proof, flight ticket details, a couple of recent photographs, financial statements, etc.

For your visa-related requirements, consider checking out the online visa services offered by Thomas Cook. To book your Japan tourist visa online, just head over to the online visa page, enter the necessary details (such as destination country, visa type, preferred branch, etc.), provide your contact information and submit it to get a quote. After that, provide the additional details, pay online, submit the necessary documents online or at a nearby offline branch and receive your visa in just a few days.

Food to Eat in Japan: Local Dishes to Try 

A trip to Japan is incomplete without trying out at least a handful of the most popular local dishes. Here are some of the best local dishes in Japan that you must try;

Sushi is among the most famous Japanese dishes and needs no new introduction. It is a type of dish made using vinegar sushi rice, and a number of other ingredients, especially raw fish and other seafood. Served in small finger-sized bites, sushi both looks and tastes great and is available all across the country. The best way to eat sushi is by dipping it in wasabi mixed soy sauce. The most common types of Sushi you can try in Japan include kabura sushi, inari sushi, maki sushi and nigiri sushi.

Ramen is yet another widely popular local dish you must try during your Japan trip. It is basically a type of noodle soup that contains four main components, wheat noodles, broth, kaeshi or tare (seasoning) and various toppings. The four main types of ramen are shoyu, shio, miso and tonkotsu. It is a very delicious local Japanese food enjoyed by both locals and tourists and is available across thousands of eateries and restaurants in the country. So, when looking for Japan travel packages, research the best places to grab this dish during your visit. 

Miso soup is a well-known local dish you can try after finishing a hearty Japanese meal. This dish is not just extremely delicious but is also quite nutritious. A traditional miso soup in Japan is made using miso paste, dashi and other ingredients, including fish, deep-fried tofu, vegetables, etc. Some people even prefer miso soup over any kind of dessert after concluding their meal.  

Alongside Ramen, Udon is a well-known local noodle dish you can try during your Japan tour. It is a thick and chewy traditional Japanese wheat noodle dish that is topped using ingredients like fish cakes (Kamaboko), tempura, abura-age, chopped scallions, etc. Unlike Ramen, Udon is more favoured for its noodles and not broth. During your Japan tour, make sure to try a distinct style of Udon from Nagoya called Kishimen.

During your Japan tour, make sure to try Sukiyaki in a social dining setting to get a clearer picture of Japanese cuisine, culture and tradition. Sukiyaki is a local hot pot dish containing a variety of thinly sliced vegetables, raw beef, noodles, etc., cooked together in a small pot with boiling broth, usually at the centre of the table. It is a hearty, mouthwatering dish you simply can’t miss out on.
