Time difference & quoting

Japan is 14 hours ahead of Bogotá. A brief sent at the end of your day reaches our desk the next Japan morning, and the quotation is usually waiting when your office opens.

Getting your clients here

Most clients from Colombia fly from El Dorado International (BOG) to Tokyo Narita, Tokyo Haneda or Osaka Kansai, nonstop or via a hub depending on the carrier; we confirm every routing at quotation.

What Colombian travellers want

For Colombia, the product is long-haul, bucket-list and honeymoon trips — and English and Spanish-aware handling makes the difference on the ground.

When this market travels

Demand for Japan from Colombia builds around Semana Santa, the June–July mid-year break and the December–January holidays.

Currency, payment & billing

Your clients pay in Colombian peso (COP). We quote net in Japanese yen, US dollars or your working currency and lock the rate at confirmation, so your margin in COP is known before you sell.

Working with Colombian agencies

How Explera supports the Colombia trade.

For Colombia, Japan is a long-haul trip that has to count — so Explera builds long-haul, bucket-list and honeymoon trips that combine several regions in one seamless file. Group space is held on option with realistic release dates while you confirm with your client.

Quoting for Colombia is built for your margins: clear per-person grids, child and extra-bed policies up front, and pricing in your working currency. Series allocations are reconciled on a regular cycle so your finance team stays in control of every file.

On the ground in Japan, Colombian travellers get licensed English-speaking guides, vetted hotels and private transfers in licensed, contracted vehicles. Guides, vehicles and coordinators are booked and briefed by one team, so one accountable desk owns the experience.
