***Please note - It is IMPERATIVE that people let Denis Casey Sensei know if they wish to join him on this trip. Travelling to Japan is a logistical challenge and numbers attending must be known as early as possible. Better prices can be sort and assurity of all staying together, and flying together. Please try your utmost to inform Denis as soon as possible. Thank You. ***
It is highly recommended that people going to Japan obtain a travel pass with Japanese Rail for the whole trip. It is far cheaper to pay for all the travelling up-front with one pass, than pay for each journey on the day.
Go to Japan Travel Centre with the link below, and click on Japan Rail Pass. Get it before you go.
Many Thanks
