Do Indian passport holders need a visa?

Yes. A Japan tourist visa is required and is included in the package fee. We will share the document checklist after the booking is confirmed. Apply at least 30 days before departure as documentation is detailed.

What is the weather like during the listed departures?

June and September are mild at 18 to 26 degrees, with light rain possible during the early-June rainy season. July and August are warm and humid at 26 to 33 degrees. Pack a light rain jacket year-round.

Are vegetarian and Jain meals available?

Yes. All dinners are at Indian or vegetarian restaurants in each city. Pure-veg breakfast options are arranged at the hotels. Onion and garlic-free Jain meals can be pre-arranged with 7 days notice. Hidden bonito and dashi are common in Japanese food, so we plan meals carefully.

Will I see Mt Fuji from the 5th station?

Visibility depends on weather. The 5th station is at 2,300 metres and on a clear day you can see the summit from close range. Clouds are common, so the tour manager may adjust the order of the day to maximise viewing.
