I’m Renaud, a French Tokyo resident since 2007 and the founder of Japan BTO. My background in bars, VIP hospitality and nightlife introduced me to the city through its places and its people.

Today, I’m your point of contact: I shape your experience, find the right guide and coordinate your requests, from a cultural walk to a tailor-made night out.
