“A Good Tourist” Japan

Where has the innocent magic of travel gone?

The thrill of exploration and the joy of discovery?

The pleasure felt connecting with people of other cultures?

Today, travel has become focused on one single dark topic.

Over-Tourism

Frustrated by the negative effects over-tourism has had on the places you long to go?

Concerned about your travel plans and how you will be received by the people where you hope to visit?

Now you can be part of the solution.

Introducing "A Good Tourist" the revolutionary travel movement dedicated to promoting responsible and conscientious tourism in Japan.

What is "A Good Tourist”?

Japanese culture is deeply rooted in tradition and sensitivity, with many customs that may be unfamiliar to visitors. We’re here to help tourists appreciate and understand these unique aspects, enhancing their enjoyment and experiences during their stay in Japan.

We are an association of forward thinking professionals from all areas of Japanese society, who wish to change the conversation. With your help, our mission is to reset the Japanese travel experience.

By partnering with local businesses, governments and tourists like you, we can make positive changes in the places you visit.

By directly sponsoring local charities and communities we can support locations affected by tourist traffic.

By offering advice, recommendations, and insights we can help tourists while exploring Japan.

How It Works.

Gain access to a global community of professionals and experienced travelers, all connected in a single place. Receive real-time, verified recommendations and advice for your travel plans, ensuring you make the most informed choices.

Look for our logo at participating hotels, restaurants, and shops. Flash your matching logo to receive preferential treatment and exclusive benefits.

Travel confidently and enjoy exceptional experiences, knowing that you're supporting charities and making a positive impact along the way.

To begin, our concept is simple. We have created a fashionable wearable logo, ( attractive lapel pins, tote bags and luggage stickers ) that tourists can only obtain after reading about and agreeing to practice considerate behavior during their travels in Japan. Likewise participating Japanese business will receive the same logo that they can display in their shops letting tourists know that this is a welcoming business. Instant connection.

The psychology is straightforward. When a tourist intentionally wears our logo it will constantly remind them to think about their behavior as they travel. When they see the logo on a shop, restaurant or attraction it will once again remind them that they are a guest in a special place and should act accordingly.

1. Connection with Local Business.

We have partnered with local craftspeople, artisans, retailers, and restaurants across Japan to create an authentic Japanese experience for you. By displaying the "A Good Tourist" logo, you demonstrate your commitment to considerate behavior and cultural sensitivity, setting yourself apart as a responsible traveler.

Show the "A Good Tourist" logo to experience a deeper cultural connection and be rewarded with special considerations and discounts. Additionally, when you see the "A Good Tourist" logo at shops and restaurants, you can be assured that these businesses have been carefully selected for their quality and authenticity.

2. Government Collaborations.

Working with local government, we will promote travel to lesser known, less congested areas.

We will offer incentives that encourage exploration beyond the typical tourist hotspots because there is so much more to see.

3. Local charities.

Your small contribution can make a big difference. Tourist Traffic takes a toll on the places you dream of experiencing. A portion of all proceeds will go directly to the local communities, charities and volunteer associations connected with the preservation of historical and culturally significant national treasures.

4. Community Recommendations.

One simple platform for all your travel needs. Etiquette and cultural advice through fun artwork and stories created by local artists. Plus, experienced visitors will be able share their stories, advice, and tips. Travellers helping travellers helping communities. Imagine tourism directly impacting local economies through real time recommendations and updates about events and attractions.

5. Exclusive Identifiable Logo.

You will be seen as a responsible traveler with our travel set.

A distinctive pin, suitcase sticker, and stylish tote bag. Proudly display your commitment to being "A Good Tourist" to open doors and share in a deeper cultural experience.

Look for the same logo at local businesses and be assured of authentic Japanese hospitality.
