Japan Cherry Blossom Tour

For a late-March to early-April departure, start planning several months ahead. Sakura-season hotels and preferred Shinkansen seats can become limited, especially in Kyoto. Exact 2027 dates are subject to the season and supplier inventory.

No operator can guarantee full bloom. Weather, rainfall and temperatures influence flowering, and Tokyo, Kyoto and Lake Kawaguchiko may reach peak colour on different dates. We plan the route around historical patterns and communicate uncertainty.

This is a customisable land itinerary, primarily using self-guided sightseeing and public transport. It is not a fixed guided coach group. Private guides or transfers can be priced as upgrades.

No. International and domestic flights are excluded and quoted separately from your preferred Indian departure city. Arrival in Tokyo and departure from Osaka are recommended to reduce backtracking.

Four nights are planned in Tokyo, three in Kyoto and one in Osaka. Lake Kawaguchiko is a day excursion from Tokyo, so you do not need an additional hotel check-in there.

The quote assumes one double-bed room for two adults at a 3-star value hotel. Exact bedding is subject to the selected hotel confirming it in writing before the booking is paid.

An allowance for eight hotel breakfasts is included in the costing. Breakfast inclusion, serving times and early departure arrangements must be checked on the final hotel vouchers.

Vegetarian food can usually be found in major Japanese cities, but strict Jain requirements can be challenging because broths and sauces may contain animal-derived ingredients. We can suggest suitable restaurants and advise requesting confirmation of ingredients; lunch and dinner are not included.

The proposed day trip uses reserved return highway bus seats from Shinjuku and a local transport allowance around Kawaguchiko. Clear Fuji views are weather-dependent, and specific scenic stops may change.

Usually not for this point-to-point itinerary. Individual Shinkansen and regional fares normally offer better value here. Local trips can use eligible IC cards such as Suica or Pasmo, while some special trains need separate reservations.

You should be comfortable navigating stations, stairs or lifts and moderate walking. Some Tokaido Shinkansen luggage sizes require special advance reservations, which we will flag when confirming train tickets.

One seasonal light-up admission is budgeted, not a guaranteed venue. We must verify the 2027 opening dates, ticket rules and your actual Kyoto nights, then confirm the venue or discuss a clear alternative.

Selected standard admissions are budgeted, including Shinjuku Gyoen and Tenryu-ji garden, subject to availability and operating hours. Paid extras, special exhibitions and venues not named in the confirmed voucher are excluded.

Yes, but theme parks are not part of this itinerary or selling price. A full park day needs separately priced tickets and may require an additional night or a change to the sightseeing plan.

The package is a moderate-walking holiday with garden pathways, temple precincts and public transport connections. If anyone has limited mobility, tell us before confirmation so we can assess access and quote suitable alternatives.

No. Japan tourist visa documentation assistance is included, but government fees, VFS/service charges and any optional services are extra. Requirements and processing depend on current Japanese mission/VFS guidance.

Yes. Osaka is one night in the base plan, so extra nights are sensible for theme parks or more relaxed city sightseeing. Extensions are quoted separately and require revised hotel and transport availability.

The displayed land price incorporates a provisional 5% GST calculation, subject to final confirmation of the applicable tax treatment. TCS, if applicable, is excluded. Flight fares, visa fees, lunches, dinners and optional experiences also cost extra.
