Bridging Cultures, Creating Connections Between the Middle East and Japan
Bridging Cultures, Creating Connections Between the Middle East and Japan
KIZUNA Journey was born from a profound appreciation for both Middle Eastern hospitality and Japanese omotenashi. We recognized the unique opportunity to create meaningful connections between these two rich cultures through luxury travel experiences.
Our name "KIZUNA" means "bonds" or "connections" in Japanese, reflecting our core mission to forge lasting relationships between our Middle Eastern clients and the authentic spirit of Japan.
To provide unparalleled luxury travel experiences that honor Islamic values while immersing our guests in the profound beauty and cultural richness of Japan.
"My journey began with a simple observation: the profound similarities between Middle Eastern and Japanese values of hospitality, respect, and family bonds. Having lived in both Dubai and Tokyo, I witnessed firsthand how these cultures could beautifully complement each other."
"I founded KIZUNA Journey to address a gap I saw in the luxury travel market. Middle Eastern families deserved travel experiences that not only met their cultural and religious needs but exceeded their expectations for luxury and authenticity."
"Every journey we craft is a bridge between two worlds, creating lasting memories while honoring the values that define us."
— Ryoma Takeuchi, Founder & CEO
