Japan is finally reopening to British tourists tomorrow (Friday June 10), ending a travel ban that lasted nearly three years to curb the spread of Covid-19
After 18 months of consultation with the Japanese government and the Japanese National Tourist Board, Wendy Wu Tours – which flies the largest number of tour groups to Japan from the UK, Australia and New Zealand – has received the green light from the Japanese government to make this first official group tour in Japan on July 26, 2022.
It will be one of the first travel agencies allowed to return to Japan after nearly three years of border closures.
Wu’s 11-day, all-inclusive “Jewels of Japan” tour kicks off in July 2022 and is expected to sell out in record time. Visits to Wendy Wu added additional capacity for tours throughout fall 2022 and for March and April 2023, to meet increased demand.
The travel company is offering free flights to Japan and half-price add-ons for individual flights when booked by June 30, 2022. The first couple to book from the UK will be upgraded to higher category rooms in each hotel of the circuit.
“We have received the green light from the Japanese government to resume group tours and have taken the unprecedented decision to add an additional tour date in July, to meet the huge travel demand,” said Wendy Wu, founder of Wendy Wu Tours. .
“Our agents and clients have been calling for a tour date and an opportunity to travel to Japan, ASAP, and so we’re excited to achieve that with this July tour.
“Our customers will be among the first to visit Japan and experience the magic of new Japan at its best. With fewer people in July, it’s the perfect time to travel and discover this spectacular country. Having not had tour groups in so long, the warmth and hospitality our guests will receive in July will be second to none. The tour is fully inclusive and we will take care of everything including visas. It is truly a monumental tour and an opportunity to be the first travelers to return to Japan, after almost three years.
