Born and raised in Tokyo, I currently split my time between Hawaii and Tokyo, allowing me to bring a unique perspective to your travel plans.
I am a foodie who loves experiencing and being inspired by the local food culture when I travel. I also love cooking and enjoy recreating the memorable flavors I encounter on my trips at home.
Travel has always been a passion of mine, influenced greatly by my parents. From a young age, I've explored destinations both domestic (42 cities in Japan) and abroad. As a teenager, I began organizing family trips, finding joy in tailoring adventures to suit the tastes of my family and friends.
Even after working as a paralegal in Tokyo for over 6 years, my passion for travel never waned. When I moved to Hawaii in 2022, I finally decided to turn this passion into a business and started Omakase Travels.
What is Omakase?
Omakase Travels is inspired by the concept of ”omakase sushi”, where the chef serves dishes made from the best seasonal ingredients in a recommended order tailored to the customer's preferences. In Japanese, “omakase” means to leave the decisions to someone else. With Omakase Travels you can leave the planning to us so you can focus on fully enjoying your trip without the hassle of organizing it yourself.
We offer "omakase" style travel to Japan, tailored to your preferences, so you can enjoy your trip stress-free. By using local insights, we create personalized itineraries that you won't find in a guidebook, take care of booking tickets and restaurants, and handle your accommodation arrangements.
Planning a trip to Japan on your own isn’t fun for everyone. It can be overwhelming and stressful.
Leave it all to us and go "omakase"!
