Our Specialty

We organize small group tours to places, events, entertainment and dining adventures throughout Japan and Northern California not usually available or visited by large tour groups.

Taemi and Gary Westernoff, our founders, reside in California and Hawaii. They travel extensively throughout Japan and Northern California taking great pride in discovering memorable and traditional places for our tour Itineraries.

For dining experiences they look for restaurants serving gorgeous meals yet are casual and comfortable.

Taemi was born and raised in Japan and has over 40 years of world traveling and cooking experience; and Gary was born, raised and educated in Northern California. He is a retired construction executive and business owner and has over 40 years of world traveling and business experience.

Our tours are ideal for families and small groups of close friends or business acquaintances that enjoy traveling together.
