Why Book with Really Rural Japan?
A few reasons why Really Rural Japan is the obvious choice for booking a tour on the Nakasendo:
We are a small family run business actually based in the Kiso Valley, living and working right alongside the Nakasendo.
We wrote the guidebook to the Nakasendo which is sold locally, online, and is included in every Nakasendo multi-day tour.
Our unique standpoint of being local guides, book writers, and also being a fully licensed travel agency means that our tours go deeper and further than anyone else. Why go with anyone else?
Semi Guided Tours
Semi guided tours are our top recommendation and our unique offering. With these tours you will have no guide on some of the days. On other days a local guide will accompany you for a privately guided tour, giving you access to hikes and traditional crafts that you just couldn’t find by yourselves.
You decide the tour you want and the dates.
We book your inns, local guides, traditional craft workshops (when included), daily luggage deliveries, taxis and anything else necessary for your tour.
We write you a personalised itinerary with detailed instructions and recommendations on what to do, where to eat, etc for your self guided days.
We give you our guidebooks and gps maps so you really can’t get lost, bear bells to keep you safe, and support you during your time here with local telephone support.
As your local guides, we look forward to meeting you when you get here!
