เงื่อนไขการสั่งซื้อ
【Important Notes Before Booking】 1. Stay Hydrated & Beat the Heat Japanese summers are famously hot and humid. ・Drink Water: Please drink water or sports drinks frequently, even if you don't feel thirsty. ・Use Your Fan: Use your complimentary Hanagasa Uchiwa to stay cool while waiting or watching the parade. ・Cooling Items: We recommend bringing a cooling neck towel or portable fan.
Walking in Yukata & Geta Traditional attire is beautiful but requires a little extra care. ・Small Steps: When wearing a Yukata, take smaller steps than usual to keep the fabric from loosening. ・Geta (Sandals): If you are not used to wooden sandals, they may cause blisters. Bringing a pair of comfortable walking sandals or sneakers as a backup is highly recommended. ・Stairs: Be careful when climbing stairs; lift the hem of your Yukata slightly to avoid tripping.
Parade Etiquette As an official participant, you are the face of the festival! ・Follow the Lead: During the dance ceremony, please follow the instructions of our staff and professional dancers. ・Stay in Formation: Keep a safe distance from other dancers to avoid bumping into each other. ・Smile & Energy: The most important rule—have fun and keep the "Yassho, Makasho!" spirit alive!
Valuables & Luggage ・Festivals are crowded. Please leave large suitcases on the bus and carry only a small bag (a traditional Kinchaku pouch goes perfectly with Yukata!). ・ Use the bus as your "base," but keep your passport and wallet on your person at all times.
Respect the Locals & Environment ・Please do not litter. Use designated trash bins at food stalls or bring your trash back to the bus. ・Smoking is only allowed in designated areas. Most festival streets are non-smoking zones.
