TOURISM & CULTURAL EXCHANGE
Translation in the fields of tourism and cultural exchange, areas of rising demand
Travel demand has surged in recent years, not only in Japan but all over the world. At the same time, appealing destinations are being shared globally on a daily basis through social media. New styles of tourism such as online tours and advance booking have emerged as the industry becomes more sophisticated and mature. Under these conditions, travelers greatly appreciate the provision of information in their native languages, which helps them travel with peace of mind. With services available in over 80 world languages, we can support travelers from any country or region.
We also have a strong reputation for translation and production of explanations and introductory pamphlets for museum exhibits on Japanese art and traditional culture. Please come to us for professional translations in the field of cultural exchange as well.
Helping travelers use local languages abroad
Translation of phrasebooks in various languages is another area where we excel. Local translators and staff familiar with the situation in each country closely examine the content to create translations suited for practical use, rather than a textbook. We can also provide DTP and illustration services.
