More About Japan Roads the Company

Japan Roads was started as an extension of Japanese Guest Houses (http://JapaneseGuestHouses.com) which is a Japanese Inn (ryokan) reservation service. It is our belief that Japanese inns represent the best of what Japan has to offer. Japanese Guest Houses is based in Kawanishi, Japan (just outside of Osaka) and is a registered travel agent in Japan (Hyogo Prefecture Travel Agent License Number 3-609). Now we want to help travelers go deeper into Japanese diverse culture and better understand it by creating tours that allow traveler to experience Japan and get off the beaten track.

Rediscover Travel Inc. (dba Japan Roads) is a new company and has not been in the press much but Japanese Guest Houses has been. Below are a few links to newpaper and magazines articles that I hope will reassure you about taking a Japan Roads tour.
