TokudAw Expands as Japan’s Premier Corporate Travel Planners
Combining local expertise and luxury travel to transform business trips into cultural experiences
TokudAw, Japan’s premier corporate travel planner, is setting a new standard for business trips. Pairing luxury transport, expert planning, and cultural enrichment, TokudAw helps companies achieve more during their time in Japan. From arranging industry-specific site visits and networking opportunities to coordinating tailored itineraries that include cultural experiences like private tea ceremonies and kaiseki dining, TokudAw ensures every corporate trip is equal parts enriching and flawlessly orchestrated.
At the heart of TokudAw’s innovative approach is co-founder Wanping Aw, a scientist and licensed tour guide with over a decade of experience living and working in Japan. Holding a PhD in Biomedical Science and extensive expertise in nutrition and pharmaceutical research, Wanping brings a unique perspective to corporate travel planning.
“Corporate trips don’t have to be all business,” says Wanping. “When you combine professional opportunities like site visits and networking with authentic cultural experiences, you give teams something far more meaningful—a chance to connect, learn, and leave inspired.”
Her deep understanding of Japan’s industries, paired with her cultural insight, allows TokudAw to offer highly specialized experiences. Whether that includes touring cutting-edge research facilities or creating bespoke itineraries that pair work with enrichment, TokudAw ensures each trip is productive, insightful, and above all, unforgettable.
TokudAw maximizes productivity and minimizes stress
Corporate travel in Japan can be demanding, but TokudAw’s approach simplifies every stage of the journey. By managing all of the logistics and providing corporate travel services tailored to your organization, the company ensures time is used effectively and stress is kept to a minimum.
Executive teams benefit from private transfers with English-speaking drivers who are familiar with both cityscapes and regional routes. Carefully planned site visits and networking opportunities—only achievable through insider connections—maximize the value of time spent in Japan. Administrative burdens, often a challenge for in-house teams, are reduced by TokudAw’s around-the-clock support.
Highlights include:
Professional, discreet private transfers designed for executives.
Venue sourcing for off-site meetings or team events.
A dedicated team for scheduling and last-minute changes.
When ‘Bleisure’ is the brief, TokudAw flawlessly executes it
Work trips often leave little room for genuine exploration, but TokudAw integrates cultural elements to create a more balanced experience. After a day of site visits or networking, teams can unwind with immersive activities that provide insight into Japan’s traditions.
Guests have the chance to experience sake brewing at a historic location or attend an intimate tea ceremony. Excursions to heritage sites such as Kyoto’s shrines or Nara’s ancient temples offer moments of reflection and discovery. These carefully chosen activities not only add an extra layer of enjoyment to the trip but also offer teams a chance to connect in meaningful ways beyond the meeting room.
A glimpse of what you can expect for your corporate trip
A pharmaceutical team embarks on a week-long trip to Japan, an itinerary thoughtfully curated by TokudAw to balance business opportunities with cultural enrichment.
The schedule includes a private tour of a cutting-edge research facility in Osaka, where the team explores advancements in regenerative medicine. This is followed by a networking dinner at a Michelin-starred restaurant in Kyoto, bringing together Japanese researchers specializing in microbiome innovations. Midway through the trip, the team travels to Kyoto for a guided visit to the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, culminating in a private tea ceremony led by a tea master renowned for their expertise in matcha traditions.
This hypothetical example highlights how TokudAw’s private transportation services, flexible schedules, and bespoke planning create a seamless and enriching journey. The result? Strengthened partnerships, industry insights, and team-building moments woven into Japan’s cultural fabric—all contributing to a truly impactful trip.
