Time difference & quoting

Japan is 7 hours ahead of Athens in standard time, one hour less while your daylight saving is in force. 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 Greece fly from Athens International (ATH) to Tokyo Narita, Tokyo Haneda or Osaka Kansai, nonstop or via a hub depending on the carrier; we confirm every routing at quotation.

What Greek travellers want

For Greece, the product is long cultural journeys of ten to sixteen nights — and German, French, Italian and Spanish-aware handling makes the difference on the ground.

When this market travels

Demand for Japan from Greece builds around Orthodox Easter, the summer holidays and the Christmas–New Year period.

Currency, payment & billing

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

Working with Greek agencies

How Explera supports the Greece trade.

Explera contracts Japan for Greece to the cherry-blossom and autumn calendar, with city-plus-countryside programs, ryokan nights and package-travel documentation. One consolidated invoice per file keeps reconciliation simple, even across multi-city itineraries.

You get net rates quoted in your currency, a single point of contact, and proposals you can forward to clients under your own brand. One line-itemised statement per file drops cleanly into your mid- or back-office system without manual rekeying.

Greek travellers want substance, so ground handling in Japan leans on licensed German, French, Italian and Spanish-speaking guides rather than a flag and a script. Vehicles are licensed and insured, drivers are briefed on every file, and the 24/7 duty desk covers every ground hour of the trip.
