Japan is waiting for Russian tourists, this was announced by Dmitry Arutyunov, CEO of Art Tour, commenting on Yandex Travel data that early bookings to this country have increased 10 times. However, a vacation in Japan is not a cheap pleasure.
“First of all, Japan has greatly simplified the visa system. Secondly, they are very much waiting for Russian tourists, many hotels even do promotion companies in Of Russia. Of course, this is not a cheap country, it is noticeable throughout, but it is very original, with ancient culture, history, cuisine. They have an absolutely special mentality, the Japanese are very pragmatic and pedantic. But it is not included in the top 3 due to the lack of a direct flight, although Japan is definitely in the top ten,” he told NSN.
Thus, Japan does not fall into the three most popular Asian states among Russians. The top three are Thailand, China and Sri Lanka.
These are Thailand (the most popular country, a week of rest there will cost from 100 thousand rubles to 150 thousand rubles for all inclusive per person, including flights, depending on the season), China and Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka may be pushed by Bali when direct communication is established there,” the expert noted.
Earlier, the news reported that about 1.5 million Russians visited Egypt in 2023. Thus, our citizens became the second largest number of foreign tourists in the country last year.
