Tourism to Japan hits all-time High!

What a year 2014 has been, not only for us here at Unique Japan Tours, but for Japan Tourism in general. It was only announced last month that the number of foreign visitors to Japan topped 11,000,000 in the first 10 months of 2014, more than all of 2013!

What this did mean is that we’ve been incredibly busy for the past year, and we have neglected our friends in cyberspace, both on the blog, Twitter and Facebook. But we’re going to do better so watch this space!!

Is there anything you would like us to talk about? Particular destinations in Japan? Tourist etiquette? We are happy to share our knowledge with our followers & friends. Let us know in the comments below!
