    This tour was excellent, with lots of fun and interesting stops - a perfect introduction to amazing South Korea. The best part of the tour was our excellent, talented guide Julian, who really made it a once in a life time adventure. I can strongly recommend this tour to anyone considering it.

    Tanya

    Asked on March 10th, 2025

    Can I check into accommodation at the end of the day (after 6pm?) Thank you.

    Accommodation
    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten March 2025

      The standard accommodation we use is Hotel Sunlite Shinjuku where you can check in between 15:00 to 00:00.

      Tanya

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Do you have the information for the other hostels (if there is any)? I am currently organising activities for any free time I get, including free days. Some of my activites have drop off facilities.

    • T

      Tanya

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      May be slightly off-topic, but do you have any knowledge on booking the more popular activities: - Hana Biyori Flower Park - DisneySea - TeamLab Digital Art Museum - Ghibi Park. The reason I ask is because I cannot purchase tickets for any of the above attractions and do not want to miss out. I'm assuming they have a limited time for advanced bookings (up to 2 months in advance). Any help is much appreciated.

    • T

      Tanya

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Is it still possible to do an introduction later in the trip? I'd like to use this day to see Mt. Fuji if possible. There may be more, but I have another question regarding the rail system of Japan and what passes you need. From what I know, there is two different passes - 1 for JR Rail and 1 for the Shinkansen. I am unsure how they work and what I need for certain areas, especially Tokyo.

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten March 2025

      You can join the trip on Day 2 at a later time. However, as this is a group departure, we cannot postpone any activities and you would miss out on any parts of the trip before your arrival. Would you consider adding an extra day on either side of the trip to include a day trip to Mt Fuji? If you are going to be staying in Tokyo for most of your time, it does not make sense to get the JR pass and it's easier to get individual tickets for your time there. For Tokyo - you will have prepaid travel cards for the activities on the tour. You can also buy prepaid Pasmo cards for your time there.

    • T

      Tanya

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      If I was to book Mount Fuji (which would finish at around 6pm of Day 1) I would only miss the briefing and introduction. Is the briefing an introduction important? So, it is better to get prepaid cards for the rail system in Japan?

      The deposit is not refundable. However, you can change your tour up to 70 days before the departure. So you could apply it to a different Dragon Trip tour

      Jeremy

      TravelerWritten February 2024

      I have 1 son who turns 18 and would love this trip for his birthday but his brother will only be 14. It would be a family of 4, mother, father and 2 sons. The tour looks great but the time of the year doesn't correspond with their school calendar. There is no tour in February or April?

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten February 2024

      We will be releasing 2025 dates for our Japan Family tour by the end of the next week and there should be a departure around 4th - 11th of April.

      We are available Feb 15-Feb. Approximately how much US dollars would the total per person be?

    • The Dragon TripOperatorWritten February 2024

      The price would be around $1125 per person or $4,500 in total. We would have to double-check this with our operations team for the specific dates.
