About Japan

Japan is a country where tradition and technology live side by side. In a single trip you can stand in the middle of Tokyo's Shibuya Crossing, watch the sun rise behind Mount Fuji, walk through the red torii gates of Kyoto and feed friendly deer in Nara.

It is known for its spotless cities, polite culture, on-time Shinkansen (bullet trains) and food that ranges from sushi and ramen to street snacks and seasonal specialties. Japan is also one of the safest and most organised destinations in Asia, which makes it a great choice for families, couples and first-time travellers to East Asia.

The most popular route is the Golden Route: Tokyo, Mount Fuji, Kyoto and Osaka, which covers modern Japan, natural beauty, traditional culture and great food in one trip. With more time, you can add Nara, Hiroshima or the snowy landscapes of Hokkaido.

Travel is smooth but needs planning, especially visas, hotel locations, train routes and halal food. SaffarGuru takes care of visa guidance, flights, hotels, transfers and itineraries, so you can focus on enjoying the trip. Every package can be adjusted to your dates, budget and group size.
