About Founder
Hi there! I’m Ono from Japan Trails.
I’m a tour guide based in Tokyo and have spent years traveling across Japan. I started Japan Trails to help visitors discover the real Japan beyond the usual tourist spots.
My goal is to guide you like a local friend, sharing hidden places, good food, and the everyday Japan locals know.
I hope this website helps you plan a great trip and maybe we’ll meet in Japan someday!
