Hidden Japan
Travel to rural Shikoku with the locals who know it best
Get off the tourist track, out of the city, and really experience Japan
From cycling across islands in the Seto Inland Sea to cooking classes in the Japanese countryside, we’ll help you explore the real Japan. Experience, not just observe, parts of Japan that most travellers don’t see and interact with the locals who make these places so wonderful. Our tours are mainly based on Shikoku, the least visited of the four main islands of Japan. We’ll help you truly discover this hidden part of Japan. We’ll help you truly travel to Shikoku.
Unspoilt Shikoku

We design tours with one principle in mind – to help you experience the beauty of Shikoku. Explore small islands, deserted beaches, and overgrown mountain trails. Eat at local restaurants, stay in small family-run traditional inns, and chat to locals. This is the Japan few get to see. We’re based on Shikoku – the most remote island of Japan, where oranges are sold on the roadside, and people greet you as you cycle by. If you’ve seen Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka, if you’re ready to experience a different Japan, we’ve got the perfect plan for you.
