Itinerary Changes and Price Flexibility
We pledge to make every effort to operate your tour as advertised. We reserve the right to alter or curtail the itinerary, or substitute sightseeing, hotels, and/or conveyances as deemed necessary. Any savings realized by these changes will be refunded to you. Any resulting added expenses will be covered by us. Although not expected, prices on this website may be modified due to unexpected significant external factors not forecasted at the time of publication.

Upon request, we can arrange air tickets for clients who depart from the United States. However, we suggest that clients who depart from other countries should arrange their own flights for a lower air fare. If you are not sure how to set the schedules, we can provide the suggested schedules for you. If so, please contact us for this information. Depending on the airport and the country you will depart from, the air ticket may be cheaper if you fly to and from Tokyo only (round-trips instead of open-jaw flights).
