Thank you for considering us to help you plan your Japan trip! We love working with travelers from around the world.
We have a low-volume approach to Japan travel planning, and intentionally work with fewer travelers to ensure that each trip we arrange gets the personalized attention it deserves. Learn more about our planning process and guidelines for planning together.
We would love to hear from you if:
- You are seeking a trip of 1 week or longer. Our specialty is itineraries of around 1 to 3 weeks in length.
- You are planning well in advance. Our availability can fluctuate, due to our focus on fewer clients, along with demand for the best local guides, experts, and accommodations. We typically recommend planning around 9 to 12 months in advance (especially for peak seasons like spring and fall), and cannot assist with last-minute requests.
- Your desired budget for your Japan adventure aligns with the pricing for our trips.
- You are looking for a bespoke Japan itinerary that includes thoughtfully selected hotels and ryokans, in-country transport, and unique private experiences. See what our trips typically include, and please note that we don’t book “a la carte” services (e.g., only hotels or only tours).
- You are a traveler (not a travel agent). We love our fellow travel industry professionals, but work exclusively with travelers directly.
We’re a small team focused on delivering exceptional service to each traveler we work with. While we may not be able to respond to every inquiry, our website and blog are filled with helpful resources to support your planning. Thank you for your understanding and consideration!

We worked with Boutique Japan for a 12-day whirlwind trip to Japan in November for my husband and myself. I am actually someone who loves to research and plan trips, but knew I didn’t have the time to do it as thoroughly as this once-in-a-lifetime warranted. They helped us create an incredible trip that revolved… Read More

Boutique Japan has made our trip to Japan brilliant and totally unforgettable. I have been to Japan many times, even studied there for some time. The experience from this trip is still right at the top of my list, in terms of accommodation, arrangement (everyone’s happy!), and food (two thumbs up!!). Thank you very much… Read More

We really had an amazing time. We loved Japan, and the experience was made incredibly special by the thoughtfulness and care that went into the planning. Each place was so different and wonderful in its own way. We felt we got a good sense of the country, even though we were there for such a… Read More

My wife Alison and I found Boutique Japan while researching and planning our 20th anniversary trip. We are experienced travelers, but between busy work lives and kids, it had been a while since we had the chance to take a special trip together alone. We have wide-ranging interests and from the beginning realized that our… Read More
