Travel Tips for Japan

Posted by admin on Apr 28, 2019 in Airline Travel | Comments Off on Travel Tips for Japan

Japan is one of the most recommended travel destinations in Asia with endless attractions that can make your trip truly memorable. However, you can only have a good time in Japan if you know a few things about the country including the culture, best time to visit and how to travel. The following are key tips for traveling to Japan that you should remember when planning the trip.

Learn About the Culture

Japan has a very unique culture that will surprise you but, there is no cause for alarm. To easily blend in with the locals, try at least one of their cultural activities like Samurai training and tea ceremony. You may also want to buy a kimono or their traditional attires to wear while on the trip.

Check the Japanese Calendar

The reason why you should check the Japanese calendar is to help you determine the best time to visit. Japan boasts 16 public holidays when most of the tourist attractions are usually crowded. The Golden Week and Obon holidays in May and August respectively are often the busiest.

Exchange Your Money at the Airport

Many travelers who have been to Japan say the exchange rates are relatively higher there and, there are very few money exchange shops in the cities. To avoid all these, it is advisable to exchange your dollars into Yen from your home country or at the airport.

Get Japan Rail Pass

If you will be visiting various cities in Japan, getting the Japan Rail Pass is the best way to ensure convenience and lower fares. The JPR is an exclusive pass for foreigners that will enable you to use any of the Japan Rail lines throughout your trip. But, the pass is only issued outside Japan, which means you should order yours before the trip.

Similar to other destinations, traveling to Japan also comes with its share of risks. However, the above guidelines can help you make the experience more fun.
