Your guides for this trip are the founders behind Singapore’s first sake brewery Yumika and Reuben. The nature of their businesses often calls them to all parts of Japan, and they're experienced and well-versed with the best spots in most cities and villages. They're equipped with the general know-how on handling emergencies, and having a great (and comfortable) time.
