Mission
Revitalise Japanese locals
by the power of entertainment
The entertainment and tourism industry had severe damage
caused by the unprecedented restriction for the spread of the COVID-19.
There are many people who thought pessimistically
and actually gave up their usual life, jobs, and dreams.
However, creators and entertainers have performed with believing in their future.
In 2023, our daily life recovered to normal, but Japanese economics has had a hard time.
Global business trends have focused on AI with their expectation and fear.
Will Japanese economics follow the global trends? Is such a future essential and exciting?
We assume the power of Japan is our culture that is unique in the world.
That culture is not found online but in real places in Japan
where you experience with your 5 senses reality of history, culture, and the shift of 4 seasons.
OUGI provides experiential tours which are different from
supply of a travel system or platform and packaged tours just visiting the landmarks.
We re- and co-create experiential tours with the local people based on Japanese folktales.
We are dedicated to directing the stories for tours by collaborating with creators and locals,
which is like cutting and polishing hidden gems before a presentation.
If a wide variety of cultural attractions in each area of Japan become entertainment,
that performance will revitalise the local area and entire Japan.
OUGI provides the essence of Japanese culture as creators driving and defining the future.
Vision
The content holder in tourism industry
We aim to take a unique position in tourism industry
By producing and co-creating hidden gems with locals as our experiential tours,
which cannot be followed by AI nor foreign companies.
Value
Create & sell experiential tours to attract foreign visitors
We aim for a sustainable economic return to multiple areas in Japan
by providing attractive experience beyond language and cultural differences
which are produced by top Japanese creators.
Concept
Unique luxurious travel with “Japanese folklore”
The consumption trends have shifted from tangible products to experience.
However, there are few options for luxurious entertainment in Japan throughout the year.
Our concept is to find genuine experiences of the origin of Japanese culture and
to produce those experiences as our entertaining tours with local people
for our customers who find such experiences enriching themselves.
That is a premium and luxurious travel which you cannot experience outside of Japan.
Our tours will entertain you on every visit to Japan with a wide variety of Japanese folklore.
Unique folklore in 47 prefectures in Japan
enrich your travel
OUGI welcomes your collaboration to create Japanese cultures and future
as locals and investors which resonate with our vision.
