YJPT tour & travel service prices per group*, payment & cancellation

Japanese hanko seals are essential for signing deals and finance.

I work to budget, your budget. I suggest tour & service charges day by day and night by night. But in the end the choices are yours. I am 100% client centric. If you're not happy, I'm not happy! OK?

I design & make tours and packages for who you are and how you like to travel. The more I know about your budget, travel preferences and interests, the easier it is for me to design what you want. And remember that private travel is very different from learning-curve travel; private travel saves you time, money and improves trip quality but it's not free! Note: I can design to budget, just ask! OK? See section in index below for YJPT's retail prices for guided, self-guided tours, and travel services.

The true value of private travel & travel design services:

  • We save you time & money!
  • We improve the quality of your travel time.
  • Our work is 100% tailormade for your travel preferences & Japan interests.
  • Tours & services on all 5 Japanese islands since 1990.

Payment options: credit card, Wise, bank transfer

Private travel arrangements designed by Your Japan Private Tours Ltd are always approved, step-by-step, by the client (family, small group or corporation). This means that you, the client, will only receive an invoice for payment when the FINAL OK has been given by you, the client.

Once you have Final OKed the itinerary design--including all the services you chose for your Japan trip (guided tours, self-guided tours, Digital A to B transfers, restaurant reservations, and other client-specific services)--an invoice will be issued for payment. The client is requested to pay 50% of the invoice total IF they have booked any guided tours. If the client has only chosen self-guided tours (i.e., guided tours), the client is requested to pay 100% of the charges in advance.

I accept all major credit cards (processed by Stripe). I also accept payment via Wise (formerly TransferWise). International bank wire transfers are also possible, but less convenient.
