Pune,
18 February 2026 : JoyNCrew (JNC), India’s premium group tour
operator, has announced its exclusive Sakura 2026 departures, curated to
coincide with the spectacular full bloom of cherry blossoms during the last
week of March. The announcement also marks the company’s third anniversary, a
milestone that reflects its growing position as India’s preferred specialist
for Japan travel.

Over
the past three years, JoyNCrew has built strong institutional relationships
within Japan’s tourism ecosystem, including close collaboration with the Japan
National Tourism Organization (JNTO), and preferred partnerships with All
Nippon Airways (ANA). These relationships enable the company to offer
seamless planning, priority access, and a depth of on-ground coordination that
distinguishes its Japan itineraries from conventional group tours.

JoyNCrew
is among the few operators in India facilitating convenient direct connectivity
to Japan through nonstop options from Delhi and Mumbai with ANA, and
from Bengaluru with Japan Airlines. This direct access significantly
enhances traveller comfort while ensuring a well-paced and premium experience
from departure through return.

The
Sakura 2026 itineraries have been carefully designed around Japan’s peak
bloom window, allowing travellers to witness cherry blossoms in their most
vibrant phase across Tokyo. In light of recent international coverage around
access restrictions in specific Mount Fuji viewing zones to manage overtourism,
JoyNCrew clarified that such developments are highly location-specific and do
not affect its curated routes. The company’s departures remain aligned with
prime viewing corridors and city-based sakura landmarks that offer
uninterrupted access during full bloom.

The
tours include immersive experiences across Tokyo’s iconic cherry blossom
avenues such as Chidorigafuchi, cultural explorations at Senso-ji,
and visits to Hiroshima’s historic Itsukushima Shrine on Miyajima Island,
where successive cherry varieties extend the bloom experience. A big highlight
is the Kyoto Botanical Gardens, home to more than 450 cherry blossom
trees that bloom beautifully in spring, while the leaves of deciduous trees
such as maple color exquisitely in autumn. At other times of the year, lush
greenery, vibrant tulips, and a wide variety of trees and flowers can be
enjoyed. The Gardens serve as a living museum of plants, offering opportunities
for both education and relaxation. Carefully selected four-star
accommodations, Indian dining options including Jain meals, and
thoughtfully paced group sizes ensure both comfort and authenticity.

Speaking
about the packages, Ranjan Murthy, Strategic Co-Founder, JoyNCrew, said,
“Over the last three years, we have focused on becoming India’s most trusted
specialist for Japan travel by building deep partnerships with stakeholders
such as JNTO and preferred carriers like ANA. There have been recent reports
about certain localized cherry blossom festival cancellations in specific areas
due to administrative and crowd-management considerations. However, these are
location-specific developments and do not impact our Tokyo-centered
itineraries. Our departures are aligned with confirmed peak bloom windows and
established sakura viewing corridors, ensuring travellers experience Japan at
its most breathtaking. When it comes to Japan tourism, JoyNCrew is designed to
be the priority choice.”
