What people love about Japan Tours in November
- Japan Express – Osaka to Tokyo
Meiji presented Japanese culture excellently; led with patience, care, practicality!
- 14 Days Japan Panoramic
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. There were only 17 people on the tour and this number is excellent. Everyone was friendly and we all got along amazingly. The tour guide was wonderful and helpful and the driver was amazing. Thank you
- Essential Japan
Overall, the tour was great. the itinerary brought us to the different iconic places in Japan. However we did not really see Gion and was not able to see a geisha up close. The onsen was a great feature. Our tour guide was Jose, a Spanish and English speaking guy. Half of our group was Spanish-speaking and not so fluent in English. There were only two guides for two days where one spoke in English and another in Spanish. On those days when Jose was alone, he talked longer to the Spanish group, probably not intentionally, so I felt that I did not get the full benefit of a guided tour, thus the overall rating of 4 and for the tour guide. I suggest that the company form English speaking tours apart from Spanish-speaking tours. Also, there was not enough time in Osaka. The hotels were well-chosen. Meals were excellent. Our tour guide Jose tried to accommodate the group the best he can. The bus driver whose name escapes me at the moment was a very nice man who drove very carefully. If there was rating of 4.5, the tour and Jose would have gotten it.
