Overview

What kind of image do you have of Japan?

Japan boasts famous tourist spots everyone desires to visit at least once, such as Sensoji temple and Shibuya Crossing in Tokyo, Mt. Fuji, Kyoto, and more. Conversely, there are also serene, traditional ways of life nestled amidst nature, quietly influencing Japanese culture for generations, even if they often go unnoticed.

In this plan, you will join a workshop to make your chopsticks and spend a night in a century-old country house where the owner will teach you how to make Tempura and savor traditional Japanese home cooking using your newly made chopsticks.
You won't believe the richness of the untouched nature of Chiba prefecture while it's only 1 hour from Tokyo.
Immerse yourself in the tools and culture of local life, savor the beauty of nature, and regional cuisine, offering you a deeper experience of Japan.

We can offer other activities such as surfing, golfing, cycling, fishing, shopping at outlet mall etc.
