Questions

What's the difference between Private Tours and Curated Journeys?+
Private Tours cover the guide fee only. You handle your own hotel, transport, and meals (though restaurants are selected for you). Curated Journeys are all-inclusive: guide, hotel, vehicle or Shinkansen, and lunch are all built in. You arrive and everything is waiting.
What does Signature Experiences include?+
Everything. Ultra-luxury accommodation, private vehicle with driver, both meals curated, and exclusive cultural access through relationships built over 15 years. Signature Experiences are quoted individually because no two are alike.
Can I customize the itinerary?+
Every itinerary is custom across all three tiers. There are no fixed routes. You tell us what you care about and we build the day around that. If you want to change direction mid-tour, we do.
How far in advance should I book?+
Private Tours: two to four weeks. Curated Journeys: four to eight weeks for hotel and logistics coordination. Signature Experiences: eight to twelve weeks recommended. Peak season dates (cherry blossom, autumn foliage) benefit from even more lead time.
Do you guide outside Kansai?+
Yes. Kansai (Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe, Nara) is home base, but tours across Japan are available. Tokyo, Hiroshima, Hakone, and other regions can be included in Curated Journeys and Signature Experiences.
How many guests can join?+
Private Tours and Curated Journeys accommodate up to 4 guests at standard pricing. Larger groups can be arranged with adjusted pricing. Every experience remains private to your group.
What about dietary needs?+
All dietary requirements are discussed before the experience and factored into restaurant selection. Vegetarian, vegan, halal, kosher, and allergy-specific needs are all handled across every tier.
