- Suitable for all physical fitness levels
- A current valid passport or identification card is required on the day of travel (proof of age may be required at bars)
- Comfortable walking shoes are recommended

- Minimum age is 20 years (drinking age in Japan)
- Smoking: please be aware that many establishments, especially bars, will allow smoking in Japan
- What is Japanese whisky?
- Whisky may not be originally from Japan, but recent years saw the world taking notice of whisky bottles coming out of the country. Japanese whisky brands Suntory and Nikka, etc., have now joined the ranks of its Scottish counterparts in terms of quality ratings and popularity.
- What kinds of Japanese whisky will I be tasting?
- The whisky selection will be different each day, depending on availability. Some examples are: Chita, Yamazaki 12, Hakushyu 18, Hibiki Blender’s Choice, Yamazaki 1982, and other whisky.
- In this 2 hour small group Japanese whisky tasting tour, visit a local bar with your tour guide to taste various types of Japanese whisky (4 – 5 short glasses, depending on availability) and learn about the subtleties and differences of these different brands, how the whiskies are aged and what sets the Japanese whisky apart from others around the world. You will also be able to experience what a local bar in Tokyo feels like, as you enjoy the atmosphere, talk to the bartender (with the help of your English-speaking tour guide) and sip on your chilled whisky (spelled “whisky” not “whisky” in Japan). Some rare Japanese aged whisky may be available for purchase (not included) at the bar for guests interested
- Please note that this tour will be at a local bar only, and does NOT include a distillery tour.
- Moderate Cancellation Policy
- 100% refund for cancellations made up to 4 days before the start time of the experience. Cancellations made after that time period will receive no refund
- How far in advance should I book?Preparing an event requires some time, especially if reservations for restaurants or other venues are required. We recommend making a reservation as early as possible. Ideally, it should be 2 weeks before your travel date, or 5 days before the travel date at the very least. We may not be able to arrange your event in time so your booking request may be cancelled and you will receive a full refund.
- Why am I charged a service fee if I make a cancellation after you started planning the trip?
- Organising and planning a trip or event requires a lot of time and if we have made reservations on your behalf, it may be very challenging to cancel some booking requests. Once we receive your booking and will start arranging your tour guide, buying tickets, making reservations at venues for your tour, etc.
- If you cancel the tour any time after we have sent you event details, the service fee of 15% of your total tour cost will be non-refundable.
- If your cancellation falls within the fees applied to the Standard Cancellation Policy, the service fee of 15% will no longer take effect. You will only be responsible for the cancellation fee specified in the Standard Cancellation Policy. Please carefully review the terms and conditions specified on the checkout page.
- Q&A
- What if I'm late?
- We ask that all guests arrive at the location at least 10 minutes before the designated meet-up time. Since this is a group tour, we may not be able to wait for you if you are late. The tour will begin without the late guests and you can meet the rest of the group at the next location. Guests are provided with the tour guides’ phone number before the tour and you can call the tour guide if you need to meet the group in the next location.
- Japan Awaits is a licensed tour operator in Japan, with hundreds of registered and vetted tour guides nationwide.
