Our tours primarily use public transportation, so you might be wondering how baggage is handled. We use a system of baggage transfer commonly used by the Japanese and overnight bags to solve the problem of having to handle large suitcases any more than is necessary.
The baggage transfer or “takkyubin” is a door-to-door service for shipping packages and luggage all over Japan. There are a large number of people using public transportation, and with the limited space on trains, the baggage transfer system allows you to send your main luggage ahead and travel comfortably. The service is amazingly reliable and will mean you don’t have to carry large bags on trains and through busy stations.
