- STSonya· October 17th, 2022The travel agency messed up our erfs forms multiple times which delayed our visa getting process. The tour just included the forms, hotels (their choice), a train ticket, hotel transfer by van upon arrival. They did not send a car on the way back, just a man to take us with a subway, walking in the pouring rain for 10 minutes to the subway station soaking wet. the kyoto hotel was new, nice and located at a good area, but they didn't include breakfast. the Tokyo hotel was old and in a horrible uphill business are 10-15 minute walk from the subway and super inconvenient. The hotel didn't even have a lobby.Show moreMW Tours commented on this reviewDear Sonya, Thank you for your feedback which we appreciate.

Traveler•Written March 2025Experience: Mt Fuji, WWII memorials in Nagasaki and Hiroshima, Bullet Train. Guests have not been to Japan before.
- MW ToursOperator•Written March 2025
Just wondering if your clients have to visit WWII memorials in Nagasaki as it is located in Kyushu Island, as they have not been to Japan before, we can include Hiroshima and Kyoto or Osaka. They only have 8nights, it's very tight schedule if they include Nagasaki due to they fly out of Tokyo.

Asked on February 9th, 2025Is this trip suitable for family? 2 Adult and 2 Children (age 14 and 10). Do we need to arrange luggage transfer to Kyoto? Can you suggest a luggage transfer service provider? Would like to arrive 1 or 2 days earlier before the tour start in Tokyo, can you assist with accommodation booking? Would like to stay in Osaka for 3 nights. Can you help with accommodation booking, transportation from Kyoto to Osaka and transport to airport?
- MW ToursOperator•Written February 2025
Japan Express is definitely suitable for families. It is semi-independent, you will have free time to explore the cities at your own pace. Regarding luggage transfer, deal with hotel staff when you check in, they will organize this for you and you will pay directly to the hotel. We can organize pre and post accommodations.
