Local Expert
Yasuko&Shigeo

Yasuko was born and raised in Japan and even though her wanderlust made her move around, including to Europe, quite a bit, her love and passion for her home country always made her come back. She has since then made Tokyo her home again and is excited to have this opportunity to show travelers the real Japan. Her special interests lie in food, Japanese pop and culture, activities such as sumo and journeys through rural Japan.

Shigeo has over 20 years of inbound travel experience in Japan, with extensive knowledge in Luxury FIT travel, Incentive travel and also experiencing 10 years overseas assignment.

Through the course of his career, he garnered many experiences and expertise in global travel business. He is a senior weekend tennis player and a foodie. 

Our tour operator is based in Tokyo but specializes on unique combination tours to show travelers the modern and traditional faces of Japan though both our metropolitan and rural areas. Japan is best to be discovered using our extensive train network and we can book all passes for you. We work with many different accommodation providers, from local Ryokans to 5-Star Hotels, our selection is very diverse. Our unique culture is what sets Japan apart and our well-trained guides are ready to show you our cuisine, our fascination with sports and sumo, our history and our religions.

Our tours are best suited to those looking for a fully pre-booked, authentic trip in Japan.

Rough Guides in partnership with Yasuko and Shigeo in Japan organised us our bespoke tour. Our family of 4 had a wonderful time, the communication was excellent, the organisation of our trip was spot on! And they were accomodating with our timeline for payment. We really appreciated their help!

My wife and I had a wonderful time in Japan, we love the people and the places we visit, but all of this would not have been possible without the great job that Yasuko did organizing the trip, she is a true professional and took care of every detail that makes us welcome in Japan
