This is a very subjective topic and it really depends on what your end goals are / why you're learning the language.

Since you're learning it to go on a short trip, I would recommend learning at least some basic kanji, as there may be some situations in which you would have to read them, however I don't think it's necessary, and you could definitely survive without learning any.

I could be wrong though; I'd just say learn them if you feel like you want to, and don't if you don't.
