The Ultra-Deluxe Difference



The Ultra-Deluxe Difference

Enjoy the best Japan has to offer from the best rooms in the finest accommodations to top tier guides and drivers to unique experiences that will make your tour a once in a lifetime experience. Ultra-Deluxe tours are a world apart from our standard tours, offering increased comfort and amenities that will cater to your every need. The star of the tour will be your privileged access to exclusive experiences and locations that the standard tour simply won’t have access to – providing you with a deeper knowledge and appreciation for some of Japan’s arts and traditions.

Each member of our Ultra-Deluxe team has been trained specifically to exceed high expectations by anticipating the guests’ needs and delivering excellent experiences to leave the guests with a perfectly memorable trip. Our team members have a “never say no” mentality, we will always do our best to accomplish your request.
Dive into the mysteries of Japan through secret locations, hidden-gems, and exclusive sites that are not normally open to the public through our team’s first-hand experience with the best hotels, ryokans, restaurants, sites, and activities. Our guides and leader proactively conduct site inspections prior to client arrival and our whole team is always on the prowl for new and exciting experiences to introduce to our guests!

The Best Guide

Choosing from our wide selection of guides, we will match you with the best guide that fits your interests. For example, if you have interests in pottery, we will match you with a guide with more knowledge in that field. All of our guides are held to high standards and we continually monitor their performance. In addition to our regular guides, guest speakers and professionals can also be arranges based on your interests. These guests have additional expertise in their respective fields that can give you a deeper understanding of Japanese culture and history. Another example if regarding Japanese gardens, if they are your passion, we will invite a professional garden builder and designer to show you some of the private gardens in Kyoto that are normally not available to the public. You will also be able to learn the principles of building a Japanese garden, how to maintain it, and any additional questions you may have.

Hand Picked Hotels and Rooms

At AJT, we understand that just booking 5-star accommodations isn’t enough for a truly luxurious experience. Our goal is to not only seek out the best hotel in the area with the best amenities and services for your comfort and relaxation, but also to book the best room within each hotel. This grants our guests not only the best views – including icons such as the lights of Shinjuku or the majesty of Mt. Fuji – but also the freedom to stretch out and relax. Each hotel or Ryokan we choose we have also personally visited to ensure its quality meets the standards of our Ultra-Deluxe guests. You are sure to find comfort, relaxation, and quality at every hotel and ryokan you visit during your stay!

Extraordinary Experiences

We are happy to customize each itinerary to meet your needs and interests and ensure that your trip is memorable. A list of experiences we offer would be long and far reaching, so please feel free to ask us if you are interested in a specific activity! Some popular experiences include: a traditional kaiseki dinner while enjoying a Geisha performance, lunch with sumo wrestlers at the sumo stable, or a private pottery tour and hands-on experience. These and many more can be arranged to make your tour special.
