<Regarding the decision to cancel the fireworks display>

  • In the event of severe weather, the Nagaoka Fireworks Competition may cancel the fireworks display at its discretion. If a decision is made before the tour departs from Tokyo Station, your trip will be cancelled. If no decision is made before departure, the tour will depart as scheduled. Please note that no refunds will be given for tour fees after departure.

<Recommended items to bring>

  • A flashlight (because the path from the fireworks venue to the parking lot is dark)
  • Raincoat (Umbrellas are prohibited when watching fireworks)
  • Heat countermeasures [hat, drinks, easily removable clothing, sunscreen, cooling spray, etc.] (To avoid traffic congestion in the surrounding area, we plan to arrive at the fireworks venue between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM)
  • Newspaper or a plastic sheet (since the seating is on the ground with folding chairs lined up, it's convenient to put it under the chair to place your belongings on)
  • You may use your parasol until sunset. Please be considerate of other customers when using it.
  • When taking photographs, tripods cannot be used at a height higher than eye level while seated. Please be careful when using them so that everyone can enjoy the view comfortably.

Reminders

  • A minimum of 20 traveler(s) are required for the tour to depart. If the number of participants does not reach the minimum requirement, the tour will be canceled. An email regarding tour cancellation will be sent 20 day(s) before the departure date

  • Regarding the departure and arrival stations for the round-trip Shinkansen, during peak seasons, extra trains may be used. The departure and arrival stations (Tokyo or Ueno) for the round-trip Shinkansen will be provided on your voucher approximately one week before departure.

  • This course will be viewed from seated areas (Shinano River riverbed, left bank). You will be seated on folding chairs arranged on the soil of the riverbed.

  • We will arrive at the fireworks venue relatively early, between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Since you will be waiting for a long time before the fireworks begin, please take sufficient precautions against the heat.

  • It usually takes about 10 minutes to walk from the bus parking lot to the viewing area. After the fireworks end, traffic congestion occurs in the city due to police traffic restrictions, so it typically takes 2 to 3 hours for buses to leave the parking lot. Therefore, although we plan to arrive at the accommodation around 25:30 (1:30 AM), this may vary significantly from the initial estimate.

  • In the event of severe weather, the Nagaoka Fireworks Competition may cancel the fireworks display at its discretion. If a decision is made before the tour departs from Tokyo Station, your trip will be cancelled. If no decision is made before departure, the tour will depart as scheduled. Please note that no refunds will be given for tour fees after departure.

  • Due to the expected heavy crowds, we will prioritize fireworks viewing in our itinerary. There is a possibility that some parts of the itinerary may be changed. Also, due to safety regulations for tour buses, there may be long waits before departure from the station or hotel.

  • For bookings of three people per room, an extra bed or sofa bed will be used in combination.

  • A fee of 1,500 yen per meal will be charged for any changes to the meal plan due to food allergies, religious reasons, etc., plus any difference in price. Please notify us at least 14 days before your departure date.

  • Please leave the seating arrangements for transportation (bus, airplane, train, etc.) and accommodation room assignments to us. We kindly ask that you refrain from reclining your bus seat.

  • Even when booking for two or more people, train seats may not be adjacent or may be separated. Please be aware of this in advance.
