Preparation and Overview of the Adventure

It is crucial to grasp the essence of this adventure journey when embarking on it. According to the overall satisfaction rating of travel intensity, my itinerary belongs to category “3” – moderate travel. This means maintaining good health and mobility, preparing to navigate through bustling streets, climb stairs, and walk distances that allow me to fully immerse myself in the experience ahead. Handling one’s own luggage is part of the transaction, adding realism to the traveler’s journey.

Accommodation choices are crucial for any traveler, and Japan offers a unique proposition. It has been proven that choosing a twin bed shared bedding configuration is wise as it typically results in a more spacious room. For those seeking solitude, a single supplementary option, although steep, is still available. However, the essence of my journey is to immerse myself in the collective spirit of travel and share moments with other adventurers.

Travel insurance is non-negotiable and provides protection against accidents. Equally important is to ensure that my passport and visa requirements are under control – every traveler should prioritize these basic requirements to avoid any issues along the way.

The group size ranges from 20 to 40 people, and this trip promises to integrate intimacy and diversity, establishing personal connections in a collective experience. This tourism style is aimed at budget conscious explorers, who are not stingy with the richness of the journey, providing abundant sightseeing highlights, tour guides, and high-quality accommodation.
