Japan Has Changed | The 30 Worst Tourist Behaviors in Japan (Stop Doing This!)

I've lived in Japan for over 30 years and traveled to more than 75 countries. With experience guiding over 200 tours, I’ve realized that Japan has many unique, unspoken social rules that are quite different from those in other countries.
If these rules aren't followed—even unintentionally—Japanese people may feel uncomfortable or offended.
That’s why I’ve created this video to introduce 30 important behaviors to keep in mind while traveling in Japan. Knowing them will help you enjoy your trip even more and may even lead to meaningful encounters with locals.
