We design a custom countryside experience that fits naturally into your overall Japan trip - including when and where to start, seasonal highlights, and smooth transitions between destinations.

You'll receive GPS-ready routes (GPX files) with options for easier or more challenging segments. We also include public transit connections and adapt the plan if weather or delays require a change.

Before your trip begins, we prepare detailed instructions and check in with inns or activity providers so they're expecting you. During your trip, we're available for questions and can help with last-minute changes if needed.

We'll suggest accommodations that match your needs and help you book, as well as help communicate preferences like meals or arrival times.

You'll have a mobile info portal with all maps, highlights, and alerts in one place. If anything comes up - route changes, inn check-ins, or quick questions - we're just a message or call away.

[¥8,000+ / night / person] (may include dinner & breakfast) We like local farmhouses or traditional Japanese inns. Since all trips are custom in terms of destination, distances and budget, a more western style hotel may be a more appropriate fit.

We will research what best fits into the itinerary and we can build the itinerary to fit the best accommodations, or fit the available accommodations to fit the route.

[¥1,000 ~ ¥3,000] In many countryside inns, breakfast and dinner are included - sometimes even homemade or multi-course kaiseki meals. If not, we make sure there are local places to eat nearby. Expect ¥1,000+ per meal when eating out or grabbing food at a local shop or convenience store.

[¥5,000 / day / person] If your plan includes biking, we'll help arrange rental bikes and make sure they're ready when you arrive. Some extra gear like pannier bags may incur a small shipping fee, as they're not always available at local shops. Bicycle price will depend on what is available near where you start the trip.

We'll assist with luggage transfers, taxis, and public transport. If you're covering long distances, we can design semi-guided segments where we handle the bikes and bags while you ride, walk, or take the train - focusing your energy on the best parts.

[¥600 ~ ¥1000] Basic admissions (museums, hot springs, etc.) range from ¥600-¥1,000. Hands-on experiences like soba-making or craft workshops may cost more. We'll recommend what's available and help with reservations if needed.

We design a custom countryside journey that fits naturally into your broader Japan trip - including start and end locations, seasonal highlights, and smooth transitions between destinations.

GPS-ready routes (GPX files) with different challenge levels, plus public transport alternatives and adjustments for weather or changes.

We suggest accommodations that suit your needs and help with booking and special requests (e.g., meals or arrival times). We also coordinate with inns or activity providers in advance. During your trip, we're available to assist with checkins, questions or changes.

[¥5,000 / day / person] Your rental includes a comfortable bike (hybrid, cross, or e-bike depending on location), helmet, panniers, phone mount, and any extra gear needed for your route. We bring the bikes to the start, so it's ready to go when you are.

We meet you at the starting point - hotel or nearby station - to exchange your luggage for bikes and gear. During the day, we transport your luggage to your next accommodation and move bikes if you take a train or switch to walking. You travel light, and your gear is always waiting for you where it needs to be.

We're nearby throughout the day - sometimes ahead of you, sometimes following behind - ready to help if anything comes up. If you want help navigating a tricky segment, context at a cultural site, or company over dinner, we're there. But we'll never intrude - support is available when you want it, not when you don't.

[¥8,000+ / night / person] May include dinner and breakfast. We usually recommend local farmhouses or traditional inns, but can also arrange Western-style hotels if preferred.

Since you're not limited to looped routes or set packages, we can build the itinerary around the best available lodging - or choose lodging that fits your ideal route and travel pace.

[¥1,000 ~ ¥3,000] Many countryside inns include hearty home-cooked meals or traditional multi-course kaiseki dinners. If meals aren't included, we'll point you to local options - from family-run restaurants to simple shops.

If you're in the mood for company, we're happy to join you for dinner and conversation. Or we can simply make the reservation and leave you to enjoy a quiet evening - it's up to you.

We carry your luggage and bikes between accommodations and checkpoints as part of the support. If you decide to skip a segment by train or taxi to cover more ground or avoid busy roads, we'll adjust your gear drop-off accordingly and make sure everything is waiting for you at the next start point.

While we handle the logistics, any public transportation fares (train, taxi, etc.) are paid by you directly. We'll help coordinate the best and simplest options - and design your route to make those transitions smooth.

[¥600-¥1,000+] Standard admissions for things like hot springs, museums, and gardens are usually modest. Hands-on activities (like soba-making, paper crafts, or workshops) may cost more.

We'll recommend what's available along your route and help with reservations. In some cases, we can also join you as a cultural guide if you'd like context or translation - just note that entry fees for the guide may apply.

We build your route around your travel dates, interests, and comfort level - including where to start, where to stay, and what to see along the way. You'll receive GPS-ready maps with flexible options, and we stay in touch throughout your trip to help smooth transitions, adapt plans if needed, assist with reservations, and make sure accommodations and activity providers are expecting you.

Your accommodations are part of this estimate - whether in family-run inns, guesthouses, or practical hotels depending on your route. We choose stays that fit your itinerary, comfort level, and group size.

Most dinners and breakfasts are provided through your inns. In other cases, we help coordinate simple, local meals or eat alongside you depending on your preferences. These costs are included in the estimate.

We include a range of local experiences in the trip plan - from workshops to onsen to scenic stops - chosen based on the season and your interests. Entry fees and reservations are covered unless otherwise noted.

Includes a well-fitted e-bike or cross-bike with helmet, panniers, rain gear, and other essentials. Everything is prepped for comfort and ready to ride - you stay light and supported.

Your guide is with you throughout the journey - riding or walking when possible, adjusting plans on the fly, helping with check-ins, and ensuring smooth transitions. Behind the scenes, we also manage gear and luggage so you can focus on the experience.
