Japan on Friday began accepting applications for tourists on guided package tours who're willing to follow mask-wearing and other preventative measures as the country cautiously reopens.
A shopping street in Tokyo's Asakusa district Friday, June 10, 2022. Japan on Friday eased its borders for foreign tourists.
The Japan Tourism Agency says tours are being accepted from 98 countries and regions, including the United States, Britain, China, South Korea, Thailand and Singapore, which are deemed as having low infection risks. Under the guidelines, participants are requested to wear face masks most of the time and to purchase insurance to cover medical costs in case they contract COVID-19. The rules don't set a cap for the number of people in one group, but tour guides must be present throughout the tour.
Japan's inbound tourism business has laid dormant during the pandemic and even though the country welcomes tourists and their spending, infection concerns persist among Japanese, especially in popular tourist destinations.
