Hi 👋🏼 I'm Florian. I've been travelling to Japan for the last 10 years and I lived in Tokyo for 2 years. My experience in this country has given me the desire to share what I love about it. This is the reason why I opened 2 Japanese restaurants in France. Now I'd like to share my knowledge about Japan with you and give you a tour of this wonderful country. Are you ready to travel with me ? F

I had been dreaming of returning to Japan for many years. I’d been lucky enough to visit twice in the past. One day, I came across Florian’s Instagram profile. He was sharing his travels, his adventures, his lifestyle… but what truly convinced me was the way he made us experience Japan through the love he has for the country, his perspective, and the deep respect he shows for its culture. Going on holiday to Japan is accessible to anyone, but it requires time, planning, and can quickly become mentally overwhelming. Florian didn’t just organize a trip, he imagined and crafted a tailor-made experience, taking into account each person who was part of the journey. It was a premium experience, carried by meticulous organization, which we truly came to appreciate through the quality of care: the selection of activities, the culinary discoveries, the choice of hotels, the smooth coordination of transportation — everything was thoughtfully planned. It was far more than an all-inclusive holiday. Our only priority was to enjoy the moment. Florian had thought of everything and was constantly watching over our well-being and safety. From the very beginning, communication with Florian was smooth and caring. He was always attentive and available, and continued to support us throughout the trip with endless patience and kindness. But beyond the journey itself, we experienced something deeply human and unique. The whole group showed immense kindness, warmth, and mutual respect. We shared unforgettable moments. We became friends and naturally chose to spend all our time together because we were so connected and happy to be living that moment. I believe this experience left a profound mark on all of us. Japan is a civilization like no other, and we truly wished we could have stayed longer. With my husband, we’ll never forget the magical moments we spent in Hakone, surrounded by nature, nestled in the heart of the Japanese mountains. We would have loved to stay longer, and we’re still dreaming about it. We put our trust in someone we didn’t know, and we don’t regret it for a second. We were incredibly lucky to cross paths with someone like Florian. When you lose track of time, it’s because you’ve truly let go. We managed to leave our daily lives behind for a while and fully embrace what life had to offer. Thank you, Florian.

Being in Japan for the first time was a very important tip point in my life, and thanks to the magnificent planning and tracking of the itinerary that Florian made for us, I brought unforgettable memories and teachings about Japanese culture and food. I cannot recommend enough traveling with him because he takes care of every single detail, and what I liked the most is that I could totally disconnect and just enjoy the journey as all the reservations in hotels, restaurants, exhibitions, temples, Shinkansens, etc. had been made. Arigato gozaimasu for your commitment and guidance. 😀

Huge thanks to Florian for this amazing trip. Florian made sure we experiment the best Japan has to offer and scheduled the perfect itinerary. Everything seems easy when you travel with Flo. His positive and warm attitude toward the whole group is contagious and boosted everyone’s mood. He is also very professional. We all received a detailed program a month before the travel and Flo was available for any question we had before and during the trip. He also was very agile and able to adapt the program to the weather or the group interests. The hotels, restaurants and various activities he planned were all very pleasant and diversified. I strongly recommend booking a trip with Flo if you are looking to meet great people and discover a new country without any stress. This was overall a fantastic experience
