What people love about Asia Tours in December
- Japan Winter Classic 11 Day - One Life Adventures
Jordan was an awesome tour guide for 11 day winter tour, very informative and helpful. Tour itself was also great, plenty of activities and free time was good. Only thing I would maybe suggest is swapping one night in Kyoto for another night in Osaka. Had a fantastic time.
The tour itinerary was fantastic and our guide was really knowledgeable, great delivery, flexibility, punctuality and went out of his way to add extras to give us the best experience. Despite increased tensions politically, we felt safe at all times. Buses & driver really great - provision of AC, wifi & charging points made a big difference, All hotels good (particularly The Maxim Hotel in Tel Aviv) other than The Amra Palace in Wadi Musa which was in desperate need of a refurb, working equipment (tv/fridge) and had very limited breakfast options. Would suggest this hotel is removed for future bookings. Border crossings were tricky, taking a large chunk of time in our day each time, especially our return to hotel in Tel Aviv on the way back as supported by only one bus therefore requiring multiple drop offs. This meant a 3hr+ bus journey and late return. (8:30pm). Would have worked better to split group to reduce journey time for everyone. Overall would recommend the trip - happy with communication with yourselves & CTO - the provision of updates and contact numbers really helped build confidence.
Highlights of Israel and Jordan - 11 days

Shannon was by far the best part of my Japan trip. Full of knowledge and amazing suggestions.
