Japan Explorer by YamaTrips

I created this guide for travelers who want to go beyond the usual Golden Route, exploring Japan’s hidden side in a deeper, more authentic way. Each destination is carefully chosen for those seeking something a little off the beaten path.

Inside, you’ll find everything from hiking trails and outdoor adventures to breathtaking scenery, cultural landmarks, traditional stays, onsen visits, and local restaurants. This guide is designed to save you time, money, and hassle, complete with transportation tips for the harder-to-reach spots.

You can also use filters like tattoo-friendly onsen, family-friendly spots, and seasonal highlights such as flower fields and autumn foliage to customize based on your preferences and needs.

And with lifetime updates, you’ll always be connected to the newest discoveries I make.
