Carry passport and digital copies
Bring your passport, visa documents if required, and store encrypted digital copies for quick checks; your tour manager will need originals at checkpoints.
Follow onsen etiquette
Bring a small towel and be prepared to bathe before entering communal hot springs; tattoos and loud behavior may be restricted—ask hosts beforehand.
Reserve transit seats when possible
Seat reservations on the bullet train and reserved coach seating help keep the small-group experience comfortable—confirm reservations during booking or at pickup.
Confirm dietary restrictions early
High-end culinary events include specific menus; notify the operator in advance to accommodate allergies, vegetarian choices, or religious diets.
Passport & travel documents
Required for international travel and hotel check-ins; keep a photocopy separate from the original.
Comfortable walking shoes
Streets, shrine approaches, and temple paths are often uneven; supportive shoes make multi-hour days easier.
Lightweight layered clothing
Spring and autumn temperatures vary—layers help you stay comfortable during cool mornings and warm afternoons.
Small daypack
Useful for carrying water, camera gear, and daily essentials while moving between sites.
