Do Indians need visa for all countries in the Japan + Korea circuit?

Japan requires a sticker visa on your passport (apply in advance with hotel and flight proof), while South Korea is visa-free for Indian passport holders for short tourist stays.

How many days is ideal for the Japan + Korea circuit?

10-12 days total works well — around 6 days in Japan (Tokyo plus a day trip to Hakone or Kyoto) and 4-5 days in Korea (Seoul plus Nami Island or Busan if time allows).

What is the total cost of the Japan + Korea circuit from India?

Budget roughly ₹95,000-₹1,60,000 per person for a 10-12 day trip, including round-trip flights (₹40,000-₹60,000), intra-circuit Seoul-Tokyo flights (₹6,000-₹12,000), mid-range stays and daily expenses.

Can I do the Japan + Korea circuit with UPI / Indian cards?

UPI doesn't work in either country, and while Korea is largely card-friendly, Japan still leans heavily on cash, so carry a forex card plus some local currency for both legs.

When is the best time to visit Japan + Korea?

Spring (March-May) for cherry blossoms or autumn (September-November) for foliage offer the best mix of pleasant temperatures, clear skies and manageable crowds across both countries.

Japan is still largely cash-based with no UPI support, so carry a prepaid IC card (Suica/Pasmo) loaded with cash and pick up an airport eSIM/pocket wifi on arrival, since Indian debit/credit cards often fail at smaller shops.

SafetyVery High

Seoul is highly card-friendly and T-money transit cards are cheap and convenient, but UPI isn't accepted anywhere, so pre-load a forex card and use Naver Map or KakaoMap instead of Google Maps for accurate navigation.
