FREE Maps and Brochures for Japan Trip Planning

Japan Trip Planning

Did you know you can actually ask for FREE maps and brochures from JNTO (Japan National Tourism Organization) before you land in Japan? 

I just wanted to give this a mention because I think this is often an over-looked but fantastic resource.
​
Why buy maps and travel material when you can get them from the official source for free? 
​

STEP 1- Find the contact page on the JNTO page: 

---

JNTO official website. 
​

[Note]- Example shown is from the JNTO USA page.

[STEP 2]- Click on General Public Link. 
​

[STEP 3]- Get to the Brochure Request page. 

[STEP 4]- Fill out the survey + Submit! 

​I got mines in the mail in about a week or so. 

If you're really short on time and can't wait for snail mail,
you can actually read, download, and print out FREE travel guides directly from JNTO's page!

Once you land, you can also seek out the nearest TIC (Tourist Information Center) 
for free trip assistance as well.
