Rare opportunities to experience Japan's hidden treasures.
Personalized itineraries designed around your vision.
Journeys that touch the heart and inspire the soul.
Guided by the Japanese principle of Wa — where people, nature, and time align in quiet balance.
Waluxe Inc. is a boutique travel design company curating Japan's most exclusive and hidden experiences. We provide access to places rarely open to the public — from artisan ateliers and temple sanctuaries to remote islands, onsen villages, and creative urban spaces.
Every itinerary is co-created, reflecting each traveler's pace, personality, and sense of wonder. We design journeys where stillness and vitality coexist — where Japan's contrasts become your inspiration.
Founder & Chief Experience Designer
Raised in the U.S. and Japan, Mayuko brings a bicultural perspective and a deep understanding of both global and Japanese sensibilities. After leading international projects at a Fortune Global 50 company, she spent time traveling the world to explore cultures and human connection through travel.
Now, as the founder of Waluxe Inc., she designs journeys that go beyond luxury — emotionally resonant, culturally authentic, and personally transformative.
(Currently in the process of obtaining Japan's official Type III travel agency license.)
We design journeys where stillness and vitality coexist — where harmony, beauty, and imperfection become inspiration.
The beauty of space
The grace of imperfection
The awareness of impermanence
Harmony between people, nature, and time
