Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We’ve got answers. Find everything you need to know to plan your perfect trip.

Traveling with Memphis Tours means experiencing Japan through expertly designed itineraries that combine culture, comfort, and authenticity. You benefit from local expertise, carefully selected accommodations, and seamless organization from arrival to departure. Whether you want to explore Tokyo’s modern energy, Kyoto’s timeless temples, or hidden rural gems, Memphis Tours ensures a personalized experience with professional support throughout your journey.

No, do not need a visa for short tourist stays in Japan (up to 90 days). You only need a valid passport for the entire duration of your trip.

If you are traveling with children, each child must have their own valid passport.

The best times are spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November).

Spring is all about mild weather and the famous cherry blossoms (sakura), especially from late March to early April. Autumn brings comfortable temperatures and beautiful red and gold leaves across parks and temples.

These seasons are perfect for exploring cities like Tokyo and Kyoto, as well as rural areas—without the summer humidity or winter cold.

  • Around 10 days is enough for the main highlights like Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, plus places like Nara or Hiroshima.
  • About two weeks gives you more time to explore hidden gems, stay in traditional ryokans, and enjoy seasonal experiences.
  • Less than a week can feel rushed and you’ll miss a lot.

A simple route could be:

  • Tokyo (Shibuya, Asakusa)
  • A day trip to Nikko or Hakone
  • Kyoto (temples and Gion district)
  • Optional stop: Nara or Osaka

It’s also a good idea to use the Japan Rail Pass to move around easily.

Yes, a few important ones:

  • Speak quietly in public
  • Don’t tip
  • Take off your shoes in homes, temples, and traditional places
  • Avoid public displays of affection
  • Don’t litter—carry your trash with you
  • Don’t eat while walking
  • Always respect queues
  • Comfortable clothes and walking shoes for sightseeing
  • Light clothing in summer (it gets hot and humid)
  • Warm layers for winter or mountain areas
  • A rain jacket is useful year-round
  • Try to cover visible tattoos in some places like onsens or temples
  • Currency is Japanese Yen (JPY)
  • Cards work in hotels and big stores, but cash is still very important
  • ATMs are easy to find in airports and stations

The main language is Japanese. English is used in tourist areas, but not everywhere. Learning a few basic phrases can really help.

Yes, Japan is one of the safest countries in the world, with very low crime rates. Just follow normal travel awareness and respect local customs.

Emma Clarke

“Kyoto & Kanazawa”

I'm coeliac and had basically resigned myself to convenience-store food for two weeks. Instead they booked restaurants that could accommodate me and gave me a card explaining my dietary needs in Japanese. Genuinely thoughtful.

Michael Doyle

“Tokyo, Kyoto & Hakone”

The balance of the itinerary was perfect. Tokyo for the energy, Kyoto for the temples, then two quiet nights in a ryokan in Hakone that ended up being our favourite part of the whole trip.

“the Japanese Alps”

Second trip with them. They remembered what we loved the first time around and built on it rather than handing us a generic itinerary. Sapporo, Furano and the Kamikōchi valley this time.

“Tokyo, Kanazawa & Takayama”

Solo female traveller here. They picked accommodation in safe, well-connected neighbourhoods and were upfront about what to expect. I felt looked after without feeling managed.

Tom & Rachel Whitfield

“Tokyo & Nikko ”

First time in Asia and I was worried about the language barrier. They gave us a printed guide with key phrases, station names in Japanese, and a WhatsApp number for emergencies. Never felt lost once.

“Osaka & Kansai region ”

What sold me was the responsiveness. Every email answered within a few hours, even while we were mid-trip and completely confused about a connection at Shin-Osaka.

“Tokyo, Nara & Kyoto ”

Travelling with a 6-year-old and a 9-year-old made me nervous, but the pacing was clearly designed with kids in mind. Shorter travel days, hotels near stations, and they even flagged which restaurants were family-friendly. Feeding the deer in Nara was the highlight for both of them.

James & Helen Thornton

“Tokyo, Kyoto & Osaka”

We'd been talking about Japan for years and kept putting it off because planning it felt impossible. They handled everything  flights, rail passes, hotels and all we had to do was show up. Fourteen days and not a single thing went wrong.

David & Anne Fraser

“Kyoto & Yoshino”

We asked for sakura season and they were honest that the timing is always a gamble. They built in flexibility so we could shift days depending on the forecast — and we caught full bloom in Kyoto.

“Tokyo, Hiroshima & Miyajima ”

The value surprised me. I priced out doing it independently and the difference was small but the time saved and the hotels they got us into made it an easy decision. Miyajima at sunset was worth the whole trip.
