Here are some common questions our clients ask that aren't covered elsewhere. If you don't find the answer you're looking for, please don't hesitate to contact us directly!
Planning Your Trip
How far in advance should I book my trip?
We generally recommend booking your trip as far in advance as possible, especially for peak travel
seasons (e.g., cherry blossom season in spring, autumn foliage season, national holidays) or if you
have specific luxury accommodations or experiences in mind. For popular periods, 6-12 months in
advance is ideal. For other times, 3-6 months is usually sufficient, but we can also accommodate
last-minute requests depending on availability.
What is your booking process like?
Our booking process is straightforward. First, you'll submit an inquiry detailing your travel
preferences. Our travel specialists will then work closely with you to design a preliminary
itinerary and provide a quote. Once you're happy with the proposal, we'll finalize the details and
proceed with booking all components of your trip. We'll keep you informed every step of the way.
What payment methods do you accept, and when is the final payment due?
We typically accept bank transfers and major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express). A
deposit is required to confirm your booking. The final balance for your trip is due 30 days prior to
your departure date. For specific details regarding deposits and payment schedules, please consult
your dedicated travel consultant.
Do you offer travel insurance?
While we don't directly offer travel insurance, we highly recommend purchasing comprehensive travel
insurance for your trip to Japan. This can cover unexpected events such as trip cancellations,
medical emergencies, lost luggage, and more. We can provide recommendations for reputable travel
insurance providers if needed.
During Your Trip
What kind of support do you provide during our trip?
Your peace of mind is our priority. We provide 24/7 emergency support during your trip. You'll have
a dedicated contact number for any urgent issues or assistance you may need. We also provide
detailed itineraries and local tips to enhance your experience.
What if I need to make changes to my itinerary during the trip?
We understand that plans can sometimes change. While we aim to finalize itineraries before your
departure, if you need to make adjustments during your trip, please contact your dedicated Takulux
DMC consultant or our 24/7 emergency support line immediately. We will do our best to accommodate
reasonable changes, though additional costs or limitations may apply depending on the nature of the
change and availability.
Before and After Your Trip
Can you assist with visa requirements for Japan?
While we can provide general information and guidance regarding visa requirements for Japan, it is
ultimately your responsibility to ensure you have the necessary and valid visa for your travel. Visa
requirements vary significantly based on your nationality and the purpose of your visit. We
recommend checking with the Embassy or Consulate of Japan in your home country well in advance of
your trip.
What should I know about Japanese customs and etiquette?
Japan has a rich culture with unique customs and etiquette that are an important part of the travel
experience. We provide our clients with pre-departure information and tips on essential etiquette,
such as bowing, taking off shoes indoors, public transportation manners, and dining customs. This
helps ensure you have a respectful and enjoyable interaction with local culture.
What is your cancellation policy?
Our cancellation policy varies depending on the services booked and the timing of the cancellation.
Specific details regarding cancellation fees and refund eligibility will be clearly outlined in your
personalized quote and booking agreement. We recommend reviewing these terms carefully.
