About us

Discover the Japan worth finding.

Japan Finds is an independent English-language travel media project for people planning their own trip to Japan.

Useful before beautiful

We love inspiring images, but a travel guide must also help someone make a decision. Our goal is to combine the excitement of discovery with practical details travelers can use.

Who we write for

Our core reader is an English-speaking independent traveler, usually visiting Japan for the first time and planning a trip across Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and beyond.

How Japan Finds is funded

Some future guides may contain clearly disclosed affiliate links. If a reader books through one of those links, Japan Finds may earn a commission at no additional cost to the traveler.
