Established in 2001, we are a small, family run Australia-based business operating out of Tokyo who
specialize in organizing low-impact, small-group, adventurous and "out of the way" trips for clients in Japan,
Australia, China, Laos, Canada, Korea, Mongolia, Wales and Scotland. We operate group and individual
tours for other operators in Japan as well as take private bookings for groups and individuals. As an active
and grassroots company we work closely with adventure travel operators and small ryokan and minshuku
accommodations in Japan, but also have gourmet, premium and more conventional products to provide our
unique style to a variety of markets. We believe in a responsible travel philosophy which focuses on
minimising the social, cultural and environmental impacts our tours can have.
Our tours range from sightseeing to remote hiking and everything in between and if you like what you see
and have your own group we are more than happy to suggest an itinerary or give a quote for a custom
request. Email us at info@bashukwaytravel.com for more information or if you have any enquiries.
We're always looking for group leaders, if you're interested in working with us go to the employment page
for more details.
