Simon Huang
In 2009, I was privileged to join a tour company as a travel consultant. For over a decade, I've been presented with countless opportunities to explore the wonders of the world, from the majestic Angkor Wat in Siem Reap to the awe-inspiring Great Wall of Beijing and the grandiose Pyramids of Egypt. My journey has been enriched with unique cultural experiences: mastering dumpling preparation in the Hutongs of Beijing, uncovering the art of surfing on unspoiled Indonesian islands, and hiking the breathtaking terraces of Longji.
As a travel consultant, I derive immense satisfaction from assisting countless families each year in crafting their memorable journeys. Whether it's the euphoria of a high school graduation, the joy of a 30th wedding anniversary, or simply a family seeking quality time together, every customer is special, each with their unique interests and sometimes unprecedented travel requests. Nevertheless, we always strive to fulfill their wishes using our creativity and expertise. Seeing the joyous experiences the families have is the greatest reward for me.
I anticipate more unforgettable adventures that lie ahead.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"Regardless of your preferred destination in Japan, we specialize in creating bespoke itineraries that cater to your specific travel needs. I have helped many travelers plan unforgettable journeys, tailored to their exclusive preferences. Whether your interest lies in cultural exploration, adventurous experiences, or family-friendly vacations, I can craft the ideal itinerary for your dream trip."
How did you get involved in travel?
"From as early as I can remember, I've always been fascinated by the world and its diverse cultures, landscapes, and stories. This curiosity stuck with me as I grew, so I chose tourism management as my major in college， which seemed like a perfect fit.
Upon graduating in 2009, I discovered a travel company that was going against the grain in the tourism industry. While other agencies typically focused on organizing large groups for standard tours to maximize earnings, this company was pioneering a unique approach. They concentrated on smaller groups, often just one family or couple, taking them to off-the-beaten-path destinations for a more authentic and exclusive experience. This business ethos perfectly aligned with my notion of an ideal company. I was lucky to be one of them, and I have been passionately dedicated to working there ever since."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Before I traveled to Egypt, I had seen photos of hot air balloon rides which, while beautiful, didn't evoke much emotion in me. On the day of the hot air balloon ride, we arrived at the launch site in the early hours of the morning. The balloon was ignited, illuminating the surrounding darkness, and we began our ascent just as the first light of dawn started to break. Reaching the height of approximately two hundred meters, the formerly dark valleys below were gradually lit up by the warmth of the dawn sunlight. The moment I looked down, I was deeply moved by the majestic beauty unfolding. Words fall short of conveying the profound emotions I experienced then. Each time I reminisce about this mesmerizing experience, a sense of bliss overwhelms me.
Our world is filled with marvelous wonders. Only when you experience them can you truly appreciate and resonate with their magnificence."

We had such a great time in Japan with the itinerary Simon sent our way. He always responded quickly to any concerns and had our backs with any questions we asked. He was a great agent to have during our one year anniversary. Would greatly recommend him to anyone who wants to get a great tour of Japan.
