Planning Notes for Travellers from India
Food: Vegetarian food is available in Japan, but travellers should not assume that every apparently vegetarian dish is free of fish or meat stock. Tell Tourwala about vegetarian, vegan or Jain requirements before booking so restaurant and hotel requests can be planned.
Visa: Indian passport holders should check the latest Japan visa/eVisa and VFS requirements before travel. Visa assistance can be requested separately.
Luggage: Japan rail journeys are easier with compact luggage. Baggage-forwarding services can be added on selected routes, especially for families and travellers carrying large suitcases.
Weather and operations: Mt. Fuji views, ropeways, cruises, seasonal blossoms, autumn colours and snow activities are weather/season dependent. Equivalent sightseeing may be used when conditions or operating schedules require a change.

This Japan itinerary can be adapted for couples, families and small private groups travelling from India. Travellers can choose their preferred hotel category, sightseeing style, meal arrangements and optional attractions. Additional nights in Tokyo, Kyoto or Osaka can also be added for a slower pace, while destinations such as Hiroshima and Miyajima can be retained for travellers looking to include more cultural and historical experiences in their Japan holiday.
