The Hidden Japan
Travellers to the Tohoku Region are of a special breed. They understand that there is more to Japan than the big three (Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka), and are able to take the leap into the unknown, completely unaware of what they might discover.
The trouble is though, without a little knowledge of a place you don’t know what you’re missing out on.
We at The Hidden Japan have lived in the Tohoku region, not merely visited, and we have a deep understanding of what’s going on, and what is of interest to overseas travellers.
We understand that this place is magical, and is not getting the recognition it deserves, and you know what? We’re ok with that!
We understand first-hand the problems associated with tourism. Overcrowded shrines, people who just take a snapshot of a location without truly understanding the culture. That’s not who we are.
It’s simple: we are about giving the most immersive experience imaginable. We believe that you haven’t really been to a place if you haven’t gotten into the shoes of the people who live there, haven’t seen what they’ve seen.
If you want to see a side of Japan like no other, if you want to be alone in an ancient shrine, a modern museum, or if you want to try food that is only available up here, come visit The Hidden Japan.
