Thanks to its mix of conventional and unconventional attractions, Japan is one of the best countries for family travel. Japan family holiday packages offer a plethora of activities and experiences suitable for all ages. Here are our tips for travelling as a family in Japan: Entertainment: Immerse yourself at the Ghibli Museum, spend a wild couple of days at theme parks and embrace the birthplace of Nintendo, Hello Kitty, manga and anime with a host of entertainment options to suit kids and big kids alike. Outdoor places: Japan's natural attractions offer the perfect blend of play and rest. Kids can feed the wild deer in Nara, wander through the magical Arashiyama Bamboo Forest and learn about a key part of Japanese history at Koka Ninja Village. Food: Order individual or shared dishes from restaurants. There's plenty of global places for a taste of back home, too. There are thousands of convenience stores (konbini), which are great places to pick up fun snacks and easy-to-cook meals if you're after a night in. Remember that eating in public places is a big no-no in Japan! Travelling during the school holidays isn't an issue, as Japan is a year-round destination. Some months are busier than others - especially between March and May during cherry blossom season. Japan sees fewer crowds between June and August when the climate is hotter and wetter, while you can expect crisper, cold days between December and February.
