Meet the driving force behind Japan Junket,
and hear from some of our Junketers.
Dayna has Junketed her way through Japan every year she’s been able since she first stepped foot in the country in September of 2016.
The unique beauty of Japan captivated her, and she dedicated the next 7 years of her life to the study of the Japanese language and its culture. Dayna’s passion for the country and the unique experiences it has to offer inspired many of her family and friends to embark on their own journeys to Japan, and with Dayna as their guide, each grew profoundly attached to the country and its vibrant culture themselves.
Their encouragement led Dayna to create Japan Junket, a specialist Japan travel agency dedicated to sharing her unique insight and connection with Japan, with others looking to experience it for themselves.

“As a first time international traveller, I cannot recommend Dayna's help and experience enough. She single-handedly managed both the needs of our larger group as well as smaller tailored recommendations for our own separate adventures in Japan. She was always friendly, and approachable for advice, and her planning was meticulous. She helped with the early hand-holding questions as well in depth recommendations for places to visit and things to try! “

If you have a passion you'd like to explore in Japan, don't hesitate to trust Japan Junket.”

Her outstanding organizational skills and attention to all details both before and during our stay guaranteed that we maximized our 18 day visit to Japan. Our itinerary of seeing and participating in experiences was so jam packed, exciting and diverse. Dayna’s local knowledge, past experiences and mastery of the Japanese language guaranteed we were always experiencing the very best Japan had to offer.”

“Where to begin? Japan was an insane experience, but at the same time I have never been so stress free because of the hard work done by Dayna at Japan Junket! Every day was filled with greatness, Dayna's local knowledge of where to go just made it easy for us to concentrate on getting where we needed to be, instead of spending countless hours in preparation finding out where to go during our visit!”

“I had the pleasure of booking my recent Japan trip through Japan Junket last year, and it was absolutely fantastic! Dayna took care of everything in the itinerary, and her knowledge of Japan (from the famous spots to those hidden gems) was spot-on! What's more, her ability to speak Japanese was a huge bonus when it came to booking things smoothly. Dayna is not only incredibly friendly but also genuinely passionate about Japan, and it definitely shines through in her work.”

“Planning with Dayna has been brilliant, and she is to be commended for providing a thorough itinerary and such a professional service. Every enquiry was promptly answered, and she really considered our interests when making suggestions. From the moment we landed in Japan until our departure, she had us sorted. The links to directions and access to our itinerary made for a very stress-free experience. We could not be happier and highly recommend Japan Junket to anyone who is planning to travel to Japan. ”

10/10 would recommend Japan Junket. Dayna took the time to tailor an itinerary to really suit our needs. The additional recommendations, directions and suggestions around best timing to visit attractions and things to not miss really helped us get the best out of our days. It took all the additional thinking out of the planning!
We loved all the key attractions including the Bamboo Forest, Fushimi Inari, the day trip to Hakone, the cable car ride and not to mention Disneyland and Universal Studios. We had the perfect balance of visiting history and getting an adrenaline thrill on rollercoasters. We loved trying the local food, ramen, sushi and of course the famous wagu. We created memories that will forever be etched in our minds!

We differ slightly from a traditional Travel Agency as you’re not locked into booking your flights and hotels with us. Our service fees go towards the planning of your itinerary, and the booking of the flights and hotels for that itinerary is a completely separate matter. When it comes to making final bookings, we have a couple of options, and you can opt for whichever method will get you the best price, or whichever is most convenient for you. If we can offer you the best price, or you don’t want to make the bookings yourself, we can book your flights and hotels on your behalf just like a traditional travel agency at no extra fee. But if not, we can instead direct you to the places that do have the best prices for you to book yourself. Either way, you avoid paying travel agency booking fees, and you get best prices! Because our priority is ensuring you get the most out of your trip to Japan.

We’ve travelled all over Japan, and every time we travel, we further enhance our ability to plan the best Japanese Itineraries for you. Our very first trip to Japan, despite months and months of research and planning, felt rushed. We had no personal experience to pull from to garner how much time to spend in each city, where to stay within those cities to maximize our time spent there, and no concept of how long and far the travel from city to city, or attraction to attraction would realistically be. It resulted in us missing out on some amazing experiences and not doing many of the cities we visited justice. Allowing us to do the planning for you means you’ll benefit from the learnings of our past mistakes, and guarantee you’ll get the most out of you time spent in Japan.
