It was the incredible "otherness" of Japan that inspired directors Simon King and Alastair Donnelly to start a travel company. Having both spent the previous three years teaching English in Japan, they wanted to give others the chance to experience and discover a country they had both fallen in love with. That was back in 2000 and our "get beneath the surface" ethos was born.

The InsideJapan concept

When planning a holiday what really matters is that you get the best advice possible from people with real expertise and experience of the places you will be visiting.

Our travel consultants have many years collective experience of living and working in Japan and have all travelled extensively throughout each of Japan's four main islands. We all speak Japanese and every year travel to Japan to make sure we are up to date with local changes - after all, you have to keep up with the latest pop sensations and crazy fashions. Things in Japan change very fast so it is vital we keep informed!

Whether you are planning on taking one of our accompanied tours or wish to travel independently on a fully tailored itinerary, we aim to offer you a first class service and great value for money. With an office in Nagoya, Japan, you can rest assured that we are with you every step of the way and that you know at all times exactly who you are dealing with.

Four offices on four continents

We have sales teams working in our offices in Bristol (UK), Broomfield (USA) and Brisbane (Australia), plus our own in situ operations team in Nagoya (Japan). If you've left your camera in an Osaka restaurant or need urgent dental treatment in Hokkaido, call our Customer Support Desk team in our Nagoya office who will be happy to assist.
