With the recent surge in international visitors to Japan, attracting high-spending HNWIs has become a key focus for maximizing economic impact. In recent years, affluent travelers’ preferences have shifted from material goods to impactful experiences, fueling more sophisticated and diverse demands for travel. With its mission to establish social infrastructure that attracts the world’s HNWIs to every corner of Japan, XPERISUS curates premium excursions ranging from traditional cultural activities at shrines to unique offerings developed in collaboration with local governments and partners, all aimed at boosting regional tourism and sharing Japan’s rich culture globally.
ANA HD invested in XPERISUS to meet the growing demand for bespoke, immersive offerings across Japan’s regions. The partnership comes at a critical time, as inbound tourism is emerging as a key driver for foreign currency acquisition and economic revitalization, particularly in regional areas. By partnering with XPERISUS, the ANA Group will promote international travel to Japan as well as domestic travel within the country.
