Central Japan Guide is a free travel resource. To help cover hosting and the time it takes to research and write, some links on this site are affiliate links.

What this means

If you click an affiliate link and then book or buy something, I may earn a commission from the company. This comes at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is the same as it would be if you went to the company directly.

Which companies

I may use affiliate links for travel-related companies such as accommodation booking sites, tour and activity platforms, rail pass sellers, eSIM providers and online retailers. Affiliate links on this site may include, but are not limited to, services such as Klook, GetYourGuide, Viator, Booking.com and Agoda. At the moment, the links I use are mainly from Klook, GetYourGuide and Viator. Participation depends on each program’s approval and terms.

How I choose what to recommend

  • I only recommend services and products that I believe are useful for travelers to Japan.
  • A commission never changes my opinion of a service. If something has downsides, I will say so.
  • Some links on this site are not affiliate links. Links to official websites are included because they are the most reliable source.

Where you will see disclosures

I mark posts that contain affiliate links near the top of the page. Links to tours, tickets and hotels may also appear in boxes labeled Affiliate link. Affiliate links are tagged as sponsored in the page code, as search engines recommend.

Prices and availability

Prices, availability and terms are set by the companies and can change at any time. Please check the final price and conditions on the booking site before you purchase.
