Travel Support refers to our personnel services. At the moment, we provide two types of guides to help you along with your trip:
Travel Companions (TC) & Region Experts (RE)
-
TC service is based in Tokyo. TCs are in charge of preparing tickets, taking pictures, communicating with local staffs or vendors, directing clients to the destination, keeping time and assisting clients throughout the trip with what they need. Those people can also speak the same language as the clients do and Japanese. However, TCs might or might not have as much knowledge as a tour guide about specific regions outside of Tokyo because they are not from a particular area. Hence, the service is cheaper.
*For TC, when traveling outside of Tokyo overnight, there will be accommodation fee added. Also, in the case of starting the trip outside of Tokyo, TC needs to standby 1 night before arrival date.
**Moreover, please kindly note that we cannot provide TC service outside of Tokyo without private transportation.
-
REs are the local staff who live in a specific area for a long time and have good knowledge about the region. Also, they can mostly speak English and Japanese only. For those who request for third language speakers, the price would differ from the normal region expert. However, REs can only guide around the specific area, therefore, when traveling to another prefecture of a far area, the RE will be changed to a new person.
** For our Region Expert, we need to check the availability of the staff beforehand especially during peak times.
