●When entering Japan from the United Kingdom
Regarding the entry restrictions that were introduced on July 10, following the spread of the new coronavirus infection, we have lifted the ban on travel from about 50 low-risk countries including Japan.
As a result, 14 days of voluntary isolation was exempted for travelers from Japan.
While we cannot operate tours just yet, we have plans in place so we are ready when this is allowed.
All vehicles used are deep cleaned and disinfected daily.
Masks and hand sanitiser products will be made available to all guests on all vehicles.
50% empty seat policy. On scheduled day trips, tours and transfers 50% of all available seats will be left empty to ensure customer space and distancing.
All staff will receive weekly test to ensure virus-free.
All attractions and restaurants pre-booked to ensure timed entry allowing for strict control of overall numbers present at any time.
Established with partners and suppliers that they follow likeminded health, sanitation, disinfection and hygiene protocols aligned with local regulation.
On the 23rd March, England was placed in a state of lockdown, with households allowed to leave the house once per day for one hour, and all non-essential shops ordered to close. Non essential journeys were also made illegal.
While we have been in lockdown since March, from early June, the number of COVID19 cases in the country has been steadily decreasing, and the lockdown measures have been eased as the number of cases have been decreasing. Non essential shops were allowed to re-open on the 15th June with social distancing measures in place, and restaurants and pubs planning to re-open on the 4th July.
We are pleased that the number of cases is decreasing, and that shops are being allowed to gradually re-open. It's likely that social distancing will be in place for some time yet, and tours are not currently allowed to operate. We will be putting in place health & safety measures and look forward to the day we are allowed to operate again!
