100+ curated experiences across Japan — each private, guided, and bookable as part of any journey. A working reference for travel advisors building Japan programmes.
Each is arranged through direct relationships, not tickets — a private sitting with a monk, dawn at a working stable, an evening in Gion. Set at the venue's own pace, for your client alone.
Daisen-in, Daitoku-ji — one-to-one with the temple's monk. Practice, not performance.
A machiya tea room, host and your client only — the full form, unhurried.
Tea from a purveyor to the Imperial Household — exclusively through YURAGI.
Nerikiri with a master confectioner — then tea, served with what you made.
Gold-repair with a craftsman — the finished bowl travels home with your client.
Chosen by ambassadors and government ministers.
Dawn inside a working stable, feet from the dohyō — arranged through relationship, not tickets.
A real, active stable — not a show arranged for visitors.
At the counter, hands-on with the chef — knife work, rice, and the reasons behind each.
Conversation, dance and ozashiki games — a private room, no other guests.
Carve the seal every Japanese signs with — a working object, not a souvenir.
At an atelier with over a century of history.
The signature list is the tip of the library. The full reference covers curated experiences across Japan — food, craft, nature, faith and performance — with details for advisors: what it is, where it happens, and who it suits. Download it as a PDF and keep it on file.
Every experience is private and led by a nationally licensed guide-interpreter — and can be woven into a bespoke, multi-day journey with vehicles, rail, stays and 24/7 support handled end to end.
