Curated itineraries and impartial advice from one of the UK’s leading Japan travel experts.
20 years of experience designing Japan holidays, mostly drawing from on-the-ground experience, distilled into ambitious and fully tailored itineraries. Email me to arrange a 30-minute free consultation, then if you like what you’re hearing it’s a flat £100 fee for your detailed custom itinerary and unlimited support in the build-up to your Japan adventure. Please note this is a consultative service, but I advise on booking procedures whenever required.
What makes JapanMan different?
As an independent Japan travel expert, JapanMan provides impartial advice. I don’t push certain hotels and products. I don’t try and steer you toward tired old Golden Route itineraries. I provide innovative routings and inspiration for the more ambitious traveller, so everyone gets their own unique tailored itinerary and unlimited follow-up support by email and WhatsApp. If you want the experienced consultant without the cost of a traditional third-party booking agency, you’re in the right place.
It’s incredible how most people go to the same half a dozen locations, tick off the same overcrowded sights…. JapanMan has the antidotes to overtourism. It’s a combination of timing, routing and sight selection that will get you away from the crowds, even in cherry blossom season. I’ve lived in Japan twice and taken a dozen extensive research trips in between while working at leading UK tailored travel companies. Everything I recommend comes either from personal experience or glowing client feedback.
