I am really happy to share my memorable tours which were exclusively provided to high-end guests via limited channel. I have been providing fully and semi customized tours and experiences optimizing to my guests' desire and underlying needs delivering memorable experiences. Been a pharmaceutical market researcher travelling all around the world interviewing physicians and other healthcare providers for decades are also enriching my guiding for sure. In addition to my tours visiting spots and places all around Japan, one of my expertise are to deliver Japanese foodie experiences. All my guests are amazed with the variety and the quality of Japanese cuisine which we may have completely different meal for 3 times a day for 30 days. These will not be able to be explored without understanding the background as geography, climate, history, culture, material and water, difference between neighbor countries, and even science and chemistry etc. which to be woven organically. My foodie experience tours will be helping you to understand these in-depth core and elements of "Japan" that I am sure you will love them and it may become a once in a lifetime experience for you.
