Is it possible to enter Japan for a few hours with a group travel?
score:2
Accepted answer
As of currently, the only option for tourists to enter the country is as part of a group tour. This means, a trip that was organised by some tour operator with a fixed itinerary and a known list of participants (source). It has been reported that there will ba a Japanese representative 'babysitting' the group to make sure nobody wanders off or anything. The participants will meet at some point in their country of origin before even boarding the plane to Japan.
This absolutely does not square in any way shape or form with the idea of a single traveller entering Japan for tourism purposes on a 10-hour layover.
It would make zero financial sense for a tour operator organising a tour to (say) Taiwan to go through the hassle of organising entry into Japan for just a couple of hours during a layover and it would just cause the company in question headaches.
The scheme also does not include spontaneous tours that might have been offered elsewhere especially pre-Covid (e.g. a guided tour of Singapore for a couple of hours during layovers that one can join at Chiangi airport).
