ANA to Sell Wealthy Indians Package Tours to Japan

May 15, 2018

New Delhi- All Nippon Airways will release package tours to Japan for wealthy families living in and around New Delhi in early June at the earliest, informed sources have told Jiji Press.

The new products, to be sold in cooperation with an Indian travel company, will be priced lower than tours to Europe, which are popular in the South Asian country, according to the sources.

ANA will offer trips to Tokyo, those covering the so-called Golden Route including Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka, and those taking visitors to Hiroshima as well as Golden Route destinations.

Prices are expected to stand at 80,000 to 160,000 rupees, or 130,000 to 250,000 yen.

Japan had 134,400 visitors from India in 2017, about twice the 2012 level, according to the Japan National Tourism Organization.

But many visitors from India are businesspeople, an ANA official said.

In India, information spreads by word of mouth, the official said, expressing hope that many Indians will experience Japan through the new products and tell their families and friends about their trips. Jiji Press
