You want to go deeper into Japan. You just don’t know exactly where to start.
Most Japan travel advice points you toward the same dozen places. This is different. I build custom itineraries for the Japan that doesn’t make it onto travel blogs — rural prefectures, quiet onsen towns, mountain drives, coastal villages where the ferry only comes twice a day.
I’ve traveled to all 47 prefectures of Japan. I know which ones are worth the detour, which roads are worth driving, and which ryokan will actually feel like Japan rather than a hotel with tatami flooring.
What’s included
| Plan | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | I review your existing itinerary and give written feedback — what to keep, what to cut, what you’re missing | $50 |
| Standard | Full custom itinerary (3–7 days) built around your travel style, pace, and interests. Includes transport, accommodation recommendations, and daily flow | $100 |
All plans are delivered within 5 business days. Payment is taken upfront via the form below.
This is right for you if…
- You’ve been to Japan before and want to go somewhere different this time
- You want to rent a car and explore, but don’t know where to drive
- You’re interested in rural areas, onsen, nature, or slow travel
- You have limited time and want to make every day count
- You’re tired of itineraries that are just Tokyo → Kyoto → Osaka
How it works
1. Fill in the form below. Tell me when you’re traveling, how long you have, where you want to go (or if you have no idea — that’s fine too), and what kind of trip you’re after.
2. I’ll confirm and send a payment link. Once I’ve read your answers, I’ll confirm I can help and send a payment link. You pay only after I’ve confirmed.
3. You receive your itinerary. A detailed, practical day-by-day plan — not a list of tourist spots, but a real travel document you can use on the ground.
Tell me about your trip
Fill in the form below. I run this blog alongside a regular day job in Japan, so replies may take a little time — but I read every inquiry personally and will get back to you as soon as I can.
