Trip Planning & Consulting

If you are a traveler looking to self-book and self-guide on the Nakasendo or surrounding area sand are finding it tough to navigate all the ins and outs, accommodation, luggage transfers, public transport, taxis, and more. Really Rural Japan offer consultations and trip planning video calls. We know this area like the back of our hand. In fact, we wrote a book about it. We are confident that we can turn your planning nightmare into a breeze. Fill out the form below to get started.

Prices:

We charge an hourly rate of 25,000 JPY. Meeting times will be recorded and at the end of the call we will send you an online payment link. We won’t actually make the bookings for you but instruct you on how and where to make the bookings yourself. Please note that high season bookings for the ancient towns of Magome, Tsumago and Narai are notoriously difficult! Though we can help to turn your trip into a reality, we cannot magically create vacant rooms. So, please understand that before getting started.
