During their eight-day tour in Japan, they were particularly enjoyed with four points that reflected OUGI’s unique arrangements. The fact that they were able to see “Japanese culture” and “the daily lives of Japanese people” from various angles during the trip. Eventually, it led to high praise.

1. Discovery of the Philosophy: Study Session by Senior Managing Director Suzuka of Shogoin Yatsuhashi Co.,ltd.

As the participants were all female business owners and managers, the talk by a female Senior Managing Director (SMD) from a long-established, traditional Kyoto company was seen as inspiring.

2. Discovery of the local life: Kimono and Tea Ceremony Experience & Photoshoot at Kenninji Temple and Gion

The tour provided not only an experience of dressing up in a kimono and tea ceremony, but also a more immersive experience, exploring the backstreets where locals normally go and taking photos there.

3. Discovery of the Food Culture: Wide range of Japanese Food

As for food, the participants enjoyed a wide variety of Japanese cuisine: sushi, tempura, sukiyaki, yuba (tofu skin) dishes, charcoal-grilled wagyu beef, tiered box dishes, obanzai (traditional Japanese side dishes), kaiseki cuisine (traditional Japanese course meal), chicken hotpot, crab dishes, ramen, and conveyor-belt sushi.

4. Discovery of Relaxation: All accommodation with Hot spring baths

The participants were also satisfied with the hot springs, a unique part of Japanese culture as a way to relax. As all the accommodation provides hot springs and relaxing time, they enjoyed an eight-day tour with plenty of activities in Japan.

The connection between OUGI and TripYou, the Polish travel agency, has been established from the ITB Berlin 2025, an international travel fair in Berlin, where OUGI introduced our tours. The high standard of OUGI’s planning and proposal capabilities, detailed and attentive service, eventually led to organising this tour. OUGI had feedback of high customer satisfaction and requests for arranging the next tours.

OUGI will continue to create and sell unique tours that allow participants to experience the “story of Japan,” as well as provide tours that meet the needs of inbound tourists visiting Japan.
By collaborating with local partners and stakeholders in Japan and providing tours that also explain the background and appeal of Japanese culture, OUGI will contribute to high participant satisfaction, economic return to the destinations, and the creation of repeat visitors.
