We're Angie and Juan
We've lived in Japan for seven years and it still surprises us. We want to share what we've learned and help you plan an unforgettable trip.
We understand your language and what worries you
Ordering in a restaurant with a hand-written menu in Japanese, changing trains with your luggage in enormous stations like Shibuya or Shinjuku, knowing which temple is worth it and which you can skip.
Our incentives are aligned with yours
Traditional agencies earn 10–20% commission on every booking. The more you spend, the more they make. We charge a fixed fee per day planned, and our biggest incentive is that the trip matches what you want.

How much does it cost?
From ¥8,000 per day of travel planned.
The price depends on the size of the group and the complexity of the itinerary. For example:
- A couple with a straightforward itinerary and 2 or 3 experiences such as a cooking class or a tea ceremony: ¥10,000 a day → ¥120,000 for the whole trip.
- A group of six, 12 days, with stops in remote areas, a private guide and 3 or 4 exclusive experiences: ¥20,000 a day → ¥240,000.
It covers the full itinerary design, detailed instructions for booking each activity, coordination with guides and transport, and access to our app while you travel.
It doesn't include flights, hotels, trains, tickets or meals: you book and pay for those directly, at whatever price each provider offers.
What our customers say
I made the mistake of trying to plan my trip to Japan on my own, and it can be overwhelming. Luckily someone recommended Angie, and she helped me put together a spectacular trip for my whole family. The most valuable part is that she worked in remarkable local places we would never have reached without her.
The whole preparation process through their platform was quick, with detailed, transparent information. Once we were there, the logistics ran like a Swiss watch. Best of all was having them with us the whole way: knowing they were there at every step lets you enjoy the place completely.
I left a pair of AirPods in the lobby of a traditional inn, in a mountain village three hours from any large city. In any other circumstance it would have been impossible to sort out; one short call to Angie and I had them back in under 24 hours. It sounds silly, but when you're travelling and you want to enjoy it without worry, that's the kind of service that makes the difference.
