Japan

So many people dream of visiting Japan and it is certainly a trending destination due to the fascinating culture and incredible food.

However, Japan is not known as being especially vegan-friendly due to its high consumption of fish although that is changing alongside the rest of the world.

Japan has a rich vegan religious heritage and you can certainly experience this as a vegan traveling to Japan although it takes a bit of time and preparation to make sure you don’t end up getting fish flakes in your food.

Take a look at our resources to help you travel as a vegan to Japan and then of course consider joining our luxury vegan group tours of Japan to take all the guesswork out of your vegan vacation to Japan.
