❶ Body Temperature Self-check
(1) The evening before the tour and the morning of the tour
you are expected to confirm
your body temperature is less than 37.5 degrees Celsius
(99.5 degrees Fahrenheit).
2) In case it is 37.5℃ or more,
please refrain from joining the tour and
contact SHŌ as soon as possible through CONTACT ME.
❷ Face Mask
1) The Japanese government says
whether to wear masks or not is up to the individual.
2) The government also says
that at the medical institutions and on the crowded public transportations
to wear masks is recommended.
❸ Hand Sanitizer
Many shops, restaurants and other establishments
set a hand sanitizer at their entrances,
which means
the owner is ready for visitors to have a chance to use it,
not asks visitors to use it.
❹ Travel Insurance
1) Please note that
Japanese local hospitals and doctor’s offices
are not ready
for accepting foreign travelers.
2) Travel insurance is mandatory
for all tour participants and
the participants have a responsibility
to ensure
that the insurance is suitable and adequate
for their particular needs and
it should cover, for example,
medical expenses and personal accidents.
Not to mention the list of designated medical institutions in Japan.
3) Authentic Isé Walking Tour SHŌ does not provide
any form of travel insurance for tour participants.
❺ Guide SHŌ
1) Basically the guide behaves the same as tour participants
from Head 1 through Head 4.
2) SHŌ is to wear a face mask
from the beginning to the end of the walking tour
for the time being.
That’s from the standpoint of Japanese politeness.
