Punctuality:

At The Journey Experts, we ensure your trip to Japan is seamless and efficient. Explore Japan’s extensive transportation network with ease by securing a JR Pass for convenient travel between major cities. Let us handle your visa, so you can focus on navigating Japan’s world-renowned train, bus, and subway systems effortlessly.

Cash vs. Cards:

At The Journey Experts, we recommend carrying cash for smaller purchases and local eateries when traveling in Japan, as credit cards may not always be accepted. Rest assured, ATMs are easily accessible in major cities and tourist areas, making it convenient for you to manage your travel expenses.

Respect the culture:

At The Journey Experts, we emphasize the importance of respecting local customs when visiting Japan. Bowing is a common gesture of respect, and it’s customary to remove shoes indoors. Public etiquette includes staying quiet in places like trains and libraries, and tipping is generally not expected—expressing gratitude with a simple “ありがとうございした” (Arigatou Gozaimashita) is appreciated.

Language & communication:

At The Journey Experts, we encourage travelers to Japan to learn a few basic Japanese phrases, as they can greatly enhance your experience. While English is becoming more common, using translation apps or carrying a phrasebook will help with daily interactions, making your trip smoother and more enjoyable.
