*Trip starts at 12PM on Oct. 9 Japan time in Tokyo.
The mini version of Omakase is here! Shorter! Cheaper! Still A Complete Mystery!
If you’ve ever wanted to just show up in a country and be taken to a bunch of places you’ve never been – but still have time to explore them when you get there – here’s the trip for you. It’s called Omakase, and you won’t know where we’re taking you until you get there.
Sound crazy? Well, it probably is. However, so many people like the idea that we’ve run one of these every year since the pandemic ended. Previous guests had fun, and hey, you’ll have fun too. Why? Because the trip is built according to whatever you tell us about yourself and your preferences. Does it work? Well, we’ve done three and the response has been so good that this year we are running two of them, so there’s your answer.
This is the short, budget-friendly version of Omakase! It’s for people that have less time, or people who want to do some Tokyo thing the internet told them to do before we escort them to some wild place elsewhere. Six meals are included, which is so so cool.
Beyond that, uh… there’s not much to say. We can say you’ll definitely have a good time though; this trip tends to be a lot of fun, and we like fun around here. If you have more questions you want us to answer about this trip (poorly), read the FAQ. See you wherever we’re going!

Have you noticed that every day we do things? Darn, that’s something, isn’t it? And if you’re reading this and comparing this schedule to the other one, YES, we DID swap “damn” for “darn” there! Good eye!

I’m not saying that’s what we’ll do today, but seriously, let’s pet some kittens. We all love kittens. Good grief, kittens.
