Frequently Asked Questions
Does this tour have an age limit?
One Life Adventure tours cater to individuals between the ages of 18 and 45. The majority of guests are between 21 and 35 years old and seek to immerse themselves in the adventurous flashpacking travel style. These tours provide an ideal opportunity for people from diverse backgrounds to connect and share travel experiences with like-minded fellow travellers.
What fitness level is required to join this tour?
This tour requires a reasonable level of fitness due to the amount of walking involved. There will be some days where you will be walking more than 20,000 steps so please bring appropriate footwear.
How much free time will I have?
While there is free time allocated during your time in Tokyo to explore each area a little further, there isn’t enough free time for bigger activities unless you miss some of the inclusions. We suggest saving anything additional you want to do in Tokyo until after your Short Break tour.
Can I bring a suitcase on this trip & is there a luggage limit?
Yes you can. You will be staying at the same accommodation for the entirety of this tour so you’re able to have whatever luggage type you’d like.
I'm arriving late on day 1, will this be a problem?
Arriving late is not a problem at all, but you will miss the welcome dinner and night walk at Senso-ji Temple. Given this tour is just four days, we advise you to be in Tokyo earlier on Day 1.
We are travelling together, can we upgrade to have a private room?
Yes, you will be staying in Twin rooms. Please let the team know who you’re travelling with after you’ve booked, if you’ve booked separately.
I've already done a One Life Japan tour, should I book the Tokyo Snapshot?
We don’t advise repeat guests to book this tour. It is essentially the first four days of our other Japan tours and visits the same locations. Why not check out one of our other destinations like South Korea or Vietnam?
