Enjoy tailor made tour that includes fascinating towns and villages with historic architecture, gardens, craft shops, local markets and sake breweries

Join us on this unique and exclusive private journey of Niigata & Sado Island, Japan.  Two hours from the nearest city by boat from Niigata’s coast, Sado Island was once remote enough to serve as a political exile dumping ground.  When the gold was discovered on Sado at the turn of the 17th century, the sleepy island’s fate changed forever.   Niigata is famous for its high quality rice, beautiful coastal and mountainous sceneries and hot spring bathing year round. 

Enjoy our tailor made tour that includes fascinating towns and villages with historic   architecture, gardens, craft shops, morning markets and sake breweries!
