What is included in your starter pack?
Everything you need is included, from transportation materials to discounts at different locations. The starter pack is fully customisable. It’ll be tailored to what you need and what your itinerary is.
Let us help you make the most of your trip!
SIM card
We strongly recommend getting a sim card or pocket wifi when you are in Japan. Since a lot of Japanese people don’t speak English, there is a chance of a language barrier. The streets and roads can be quite confusing as well so having a sim card or pocket wifi could definitely help.
Transportation card
To easily get around the country, a transportation card is great to have. You can easily tap in and out of ticket gates and you can use it for trains, subways, buses and a lot of shops and even restaurants.
JR Pass
The JR Pass is one of the best things for travellers in Japan, epseically if you’re planning to go long distance. It allows you to ride all JR trains as many times as you need during a chosen period of time—7 days, 14 days or 21 days, depending on your plan.
