Participant Feedback: One of the Best Tours Ever

One of the most touching compliments we received came from a participant who had traveled extensively across the globe:

“I’ve traveled all over the world, but this experience with Ninja Kotan Travel was genuinely something special. Spending a few hours with the CEO, I felt like I was seeing Japan from an insider’s perspective, not just as a tourist.

They didn’t just show me the sights; they brought me into the culture and history in a way I hadn’t felt before. The CEO said, ‘We want you to feel the real Japan,’ and that’s exactly what they delivered. It wasn’t just about ticking off landmarks—it was about uncovering hidden places and hearing stories that only someone deeply connected to the area would know.
Their passion for showing an authentic side of Japan was clear in every moment. If you’re looking for a truly genuine experience, not just the usual tour stops, I can’t recommend Ninja Kotan Travel enough. This was hands down one of the best tours I’ve ever had.”—Gregor Watson, San Francisco

Gratitude for a Year of Unwavering Support

The exceptionally high level of satisfaction we achieved within less than a year since launching our tours is thanks to the fact that our tours provide authentic traditional cultural experiences in Tokyo, coupled with the dedication of our knowledgeable and personable guides. We are also deeply grateful to the artisans, geisha, monks, and Noh performers who have made these cultural experiences possible. Thank you all for your contributions and efforts.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the major travel companies and hotel concierges, both in Japan and abroad, who trusted our newly launched tours and referred guests to us.

In 2025, we will enter the second year since launching our tours. Building on this year’s success, we aim to welcome even more travelers and provide them with unforgettable, authentic journeys. We look forward to your continued support in the coming year.
