    Tour group was fantastic. Emi the tour guide was so helpful, went above and beyond. Felt like you were with friends rather than a stranger. The hostels and other living arrangements were very nice, not at all like the reputation that hostels have in the rest of the world. Emi, the tour guide offered so many extra things to do for the group. Tea ceremonies, ninja experiences, etc. She also gave some great recommendations for places to go and things to do on your own. Two of my favorite things I did on this trip, the Kabuki theatre and the sanjusangendo temple, were her recommendations. The only thing I regret is not going on the longer tour so I could have more fun with the group. The description on the site does not do the tour justice. This tour is great for making new friends and having fun experiences in Japan.

    I really enjoyed the tour aspect of my trip. The guide was friendly, fun and responsible, and the the chance to meet other people from other countries is interesting and it's really exciting to experience a new country and culture with others. The tour was not too set in stone, plenty of room for me to do my own thing, and we were always asked our opinion as to whether we wanted to go somewhere/do something as a group.

    Our tour guide (Kumiko) was absolutely amazing! It was a great way to travel being in a group. Kumiko took us everywhere we wanted to go to see what we had planned to see and if she couldn't take us to them all she would go out of her way to find the easiest directions to find that place.
