Japan welcomed 233,000 Indian visitors in 2024

First-time Indian visitors are said to favour the iconic ‘Golden Route,’ which includes Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, and Hiroshima.

The Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO) Delhi Office announces that 233,000 Indians visited Japan from January to December 2024, representing a significant 40% increase in tourism from India compared to 166,394 visitors in 2023.

A highlight of the year is said to be March 2024, which recorded approx. 27,206 arrivals, reflecting an 83.0% YoY growth. Another milestone was May 2024, which saw a 61.6% YoY growth and the highest monthly influx, with approx. 29,068 arrivals.

Additionally, 2024 said to see the introduction of MICE movement to new regions, with some incentive tours extending their itineraries to Kansai and Hiroshima, whereas Tokyo had previously been the sole MICE destination.

First-time Indian visitors are said to favour the iconic ‘Golden Route,’ which includes Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, and Hiroshima. Moreover, the JNTO Delhi Office aims to actively promote other stunning prefectures, such as Hokkaido, Tohoku, and Tateyama Kurobe Alpine route. These efforts aim to showcase Japan’s diverse beauty and encourage Indian tourists to expand their itineraries beyond the classic ‘Golden Route.’

The overall growth in arrivals reflects India’s economic prosperity, rising disposable incomes, and a growing trend among Indians to explore new international destinations.
