About this site

Who we are

Japan Without Japanese is run by a small independent team of editors in Japan. The text is drafted with AI and checked by us against each place's official page before it is published.

How places are checked

We list a place only when its own official page, or an official tourism body (GO TOKYO, JNTO), states something that helps a visitor who does not speak Japanese. Each entry carries the link and the date we checked it. We do not copy content from map apps, review sites or booking sites, and we do not make claims about taste or quality.

What this site is not

We are not a travel agency. We do not make bookings, sell tours or write personal itineraries. Information can go out of date: please check the official link before you go.

Advertising

There are no ads or affiliate links on this site at the moment. If we add them, the pages will say so clearly.
