There’s no shortage of travel inspiration out there - it's almost overwhelming at times. What's harder to find is someone who has done the hours of research, got the local knowledge, created a balanced plan that makes it wonderful for everyone, and gives you the insights that people travelling with young kids actually need to know.
Welcome to Souvenir.

TOKYO
EXPECT TO FALL IN LOVE
I’ve been lucky to visit Tokyo several times, but last year I brought my kids. I loved seeing my favourite city though their eyes. But it was certainly a different sort of trip: No late night whisky bar hopping and karaoke! No 6-seater counter restaurants, bordering on a spiritual experience! This time it was about sharing our love of Japanese culture, food and design with the kids, at their pace.
Tokyo is a feast for the senses where you’ll discover something or someone achingly wonderful at every turn. My favourite find on this trip was a graphic design studio-run-rice shop. Select your preferred texture and sweetness from rice sourced from small farms across Japan and a rickety vintage machine will spit out the husks, leaving milky white rice ready to take home. Heaven.
For more on this rice shop and other perspectives from our Tokyo trip with kids, take a look inside our Tokyo deep dive below.

NOT HAVING TO MAKE DECISIONS - THE ULTIMATE LUXURY...?
I wanted someone to tell me the things I know I'll love, and everything I need to make it happen. Good trips with fewer decisions to make. That's why I created Souvenir.
