How We Earn Revenue

Japan Atlas is a free resource. To support the creation and maintenance of our travel guides, we participate in affiliate programs — primarily with GetYourGuide and other trusted travel platforms.

What This Means for You

When you click on certain links in our guides and make a booking, we may earn a small commission. This comes at no additional cost to you — the price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the provider.

Our Promise

  • Editorial independence: Affiliate relationships never influence what we recommend. Our editorial team selects recommendations based on quality, value, and relevance — not commission rates.
  • Transparency: Affiliate links are clearly integrated into our content in contexts where they are genuinely useful to you.
  • No paid placements: We do not accept payment in exchange for favorable reviews or recommendations.
  • Your trust matters most: If we don't think something is worth recommending, we won't recommend it — regardless of the affiliate opportunity.

How to Identify Affiliate Links

Links to external booking platforms (such as GetYourGuide) within our activity recommendations, tour suggestions, and booking sections are typically affiliate links. They do not affect the content of our recommendations.
