Half Day in Echizen: Washi, Knife Making & Laquerware

This was our 1st trip to Echizen and we had limited time. Megumi picked us up from the train station and graciously transported all of our luggage too! She listened extremely well to our interests and customized a tour that was perfect- she even was able to fit in a quick lunch in a nice park. The washi tour was incredibly moving - and the history and connection will stick with us; Aki, our 80 yr old tour guide is an absolute gem. Megumi was also able to pivot quickly during our visit to the Takafu Knife Center, we were able to visit an artisan in his shop and purchase one of his handmade knife’s. The lacquerware and temple stops were also wonderful. We highly recommend you book a tour with Megumi. She will make your day unforgettable.

Fabulous Nara & Kyoto tour

Our tour in Nara, Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, and Fushimi Inari was absolutely fabulous! We even had the unforgettable experience of wearing kimonos while walking around the Narashima Pagoda area — such a magical way to see Kyoto’s beauty and culture. Tomoe-san made sure we had an amazing time, tailoring everything to our interests and needs at every step. Her warmth, organization, and attention to detail made our Kyoto trip truly special. We’re so grateful for the experience and all the wonderful memories! Brian & Angelica O

An Absolute Stand Out of a Tour Guide!

Kazue is a wonderful Tour Guide who showed me the Yatai Stalls that are not readily known to regular tourists. The experience was one of a kind, and I am so happy to have gotten lucky and was able to book Kazue a day in advance of the tour! Must book early!!

Private Tours in Japan

Learning about Japan has never been easier with our local, expert tour guides leading the way, from a tour through Okayama, to the inner gems of Shikoku.

Ready to take on Japan’s sites and go beyond the usual? Kurashiki's Bikan Historical Quarter is a beautifully preserved Edo-period district, and with a knowledgeable tour guide, you can encounter traditional architecture, willow-lined canals, and charming shops. From historical context, to share stories about the area, it’s time to see the land of the rising sun the right way.

To see a side of Japan not commonly noticed, talk to a local tour guide about peaceful pockets of relaxation like Iya Valley, a rugged setting with high cliffs, vine bridges, and traditional thatched-roof houses waiting to be explored.
