We really had a terrific trip! Can't thank you enough for the thoughtful planning and recommendations along the way. From Naoshima for the guys (a huge highlight), to the magical Kyoto of temples, bamboo forests and geishas, to sumo in Osaka, through the restful ryokan and walking around Shuzenji Onsen on a rainy day, and… Read More

We had a truly wonderful time in Japan. Lots of people have asked what was the highlight and it really is hard to pick one, or even a few. We really enjoyed the Tsukiji market, the visit to Yanaka, the Kiyosumi Garden, all the gardens in Kyoto, the evening in Osaka, the lunch with the… Read More

My wife and I just got back from our Boutique Japan trip, and it was fantastic. Andres has excellent attention to detail, and the information they put together was tremendously helpful along the way.

We absolutely loved our trip. I fell in love with Tokyo and am secretly hoping I can convince my sister or friend to visit soon so I can go with them to see more of the neighborhoods we missed this time around. Each guide was very, very well-matched with the type of tour they gave.… Read More

We recently returned from our 3 week long trip around Honshu, expertly planned by Boutique Japan. Since this was our first visit to the country, and we really wanted to experience Japanese culture, I started looking for a specialist … More to help me plan it.
After contacting Boutique Japan, before a single dollar was paid, they were already providing tremendous value in the early planning stages. Once we formally engaged with them, they went to work putting together an experience that was tailored to what we wanted, and provided lots of ideas for things we didn't even realize we wanted until they mentioned it.
During our trip, everything was laid out in detail in a web app that contained contact info, hotel addresses in Japanese and English, instructions for where to meet guides, their names, and the itinerary for each day. This took all the stress out of our visit, and allowed us to just roll with the daily activities. Our guides were all friendly and conversational, knowledgeable and had good command of the English language.
On the couple of occasions we needed something while we were there, the team was very responsive.
We had a magical time in Japan, and learned so much about the culture. We even made some friends along the way. We can't wait to plan our next visit!
For a well executed and special trip to Japan, I wholeheartedly recommend Boutique Japan!
