Private travel · Tailor-made Japan
Private, Tailor-Made Travel in Japan
A private Japan journey built around the people travelling. No fixed packages. We plan the route, the stays, the transport and the pace around who’s coming — families, couples and friends, private groups and companies.
- Families
- Couples & friends
- Private groups
- Companies & clubs
How we work
Every trip starts with the people on it — who’s travelling, what they care about, how much they want to do in a day, and where the itinerary needs room to breathe. Then we bring accommodation, private transport, dining, sightseeing and anything special into one itinerary, with one Japan-based contact from the first email to the last day.
What we look after
Everything that makes the trip work
Custom route design
A route shaped around your dates, interests, comfort level and realistic travel times.
Hotels & ryokan
Hotels, room types, onsen stays and meal plans chosen for the experience and the flow of the route.
Private transport
Airport transfers, Alphard, HiAce, minibuses or coaches — whatever makes the day easier.
Dining
Restaurants, group dinners and dietary needs, booked ahead where it matters.
Culture & sightseeing
Private touring, regional travel and experiences, with enough time to actually enjoy them.
Japan golf
Golf can be the focus of the trip, or just one part of a wider itinerary.
Non-golf companions
Parallel plans, so players and non-players both have a great day.
Corporate & special interest
Incentive groups, corporate hospitality and other purpose-specific arrangements.
One local contact
One Japan-based planner, before and during the trip.
Before we quote
The details that shape the trip
We check the practical things first, so the plan works on the day — not just on paper.
- Travel dates and flight times
- Number and profile of guests
- Hotel and room requirements
- Vehicle and luggage capacity
- Dining and dietary needs
- Companions who won’t join every activity
- Daily travel distances
- Mobility or activity-level considerations
These help us put together a realistic itinerary and quote.

Questions before we plan
Can you plan the whole itinerary?
Yes. We can plan accommodation, private transport, sightseeing, dining and other agreed arrangements around your dates, group size and preferred destinations. If you already have a draft itinerary, we’re happy to review it and advise on routing and timing.
What do you need from us to get started?
Your travel dates, number of guests, arrival and departure airports, preferred destinations, room arrangements and the services you need. A target budget and any mobility, dietary or special requirements help us prepare a better proposal.
When do bookings actually start?
An initial quote doesn’t reserve hotels, vehicles or other services. Bookings normally start once the programme, payment terms and booking conditions are agreed and the deposit is received — always subject to the individual quote and supplier availability.
Is there a minimum group size or trip length?
No hard rule. We’ve planned trips for two people and for groups of fifteen or more. The shape of the trip decides — not a rule.
Can you arrange just one part of the trip?
Yes. If most of your trip is already set, we can add just the piece that matters most — a round of golf, a transfer or a ryokan night. Standalone golf bookings are charged per round.
How far ahead should we start?
Three months ahead is a comfortable start; six months for cherry blossom and autumn. The earlier we talk, the more options there are.
