SERVICE
From planning and arranging inbound travel to social media, marketing support and AI adoption.
WALKING TOURS
Walking Tours for Visitors to Japan
Private tours for families and groups visiting Japan, run by us as Japan Trails. Our founder, Mihiro Ono, guides them in English.
There are two kinds of tour, a day on foot in Tokyo or Yokohama (6 hours) and a day trip by train to Mount Fuji (Lake Kawaguchi), Hakone, Kamakura or Nikko (about 9 to 10 hours).
- Every tour is private. Prices are per group.
- We plan the day with you before you arrive, around your children's ages, how much you want to walk and what you can eat.
- We have guided families with children from age five, and guests who use a wheelchair.
OPERATIONS
Ground Handling & On-the-Day Operations
We act as the receiving partner in Japan for overseas travel companies and corporate clients, handling both the arrangements and the running of the trip.
Accommodation, transport, guides and experience venues, plus operations on the day and a written report afterwards. One person handles it from start to finish, so you are never chasing several suppliers at once.
- Itinerary and quotation
- Accommodation, transport, guides and venues
- Operations on the day and emergency response
- Report afterwards
INBOUND GROWTH
Inbound Marketing Support
Support built around being found by visitors to Japan: social media run on your behalf, and consulting on getting ready to host, through a single point of contact.
We run your Instagram and Google Maps presence — posting, measuring and improving — and work alongside you on translation, menus, signage and pricing. Because we run tours ourselves, our advice comes from watching what overseas guests actually look at before they decide.
- Social media management (content, measurement, improvement)
- Google Business Profile setup and management
- Listing and managing your experiences on OTAs (GetYourGuide, Viator, Klook)
- Marketing to English-speaking visitors (US, UK, Europe, Australia)
AI SUPPORT
AI Adoption Support
We help you bring generative AI into your work and stay with you until your team keeps using it. It starts with reviewing your daily work together and finding the tasks where AI can save time.
We begin with easy wins such as meeting notes, daily reports and paperwork, then widen out, training one person on your team to lead it. We sell no tools of our own, so we choose what fits your work.
- Work review (which tasks AI can help with, and the hours it could save)
- Choosing and setting up tools, and agreeing house rules
- Training an in-house lead
- A monthly report of hours saved, converted into money
