- VHVernon K· November 12th, 2024The overall experience was very good. The preparation and communications on the specific arrangements, transportation, lodging and tour coordination was somewhat lacking. Some of the descriptions during the trip were confusing and at times in conflict with itself. we were told on some occasions to be at locations out- of sequences so we had to risk same day or night before communications to get directions straightened out. One time we barely made the initial meeting point by the required time. JR Regional pass voucher was not received at the hotel until the very last moment and directions to use it could have been better. Kimono walk on 10/23/24 did not occur and request for gluten free meal was not communicated resulting in my wife not bale to eat here dinner meal at the inn. They were very apologetic about the loss of communication, but this could have been avoided. Tour guides were always very good. They were conscientious and always courteous and organized. Again overall, the experience was positive.Show moreTrip date: October 2024
- LALourdes· October 25th, 2024Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishUnfortunately the services offered between the countries were not similar. They did not send the itinerary in time to validate it. There was an error that fortunately they corrected even though they had the plane tickets before starting the trip. I think they should improve their response times and be more empathetic. I know that nowadays a lot of things are done online, however, they should consider their support and assistance closer to the elderly.Show moreTrip date: October 2024

Asked on July 23rd, 2025Are there other people signed up for the 26th or 27th? Are tbere enough people signed up that you are sure 1 date or the other will have enough people to.go yet?
- Bamba TravelOperator•Written July 2025
The departure for July 26th is, unfortunately, just a bit too last-minute for us to confirm at this stage. This is not a group tour, you won't be traveling with a group and there won't be a tour leader with you. But everything would be arranged for you and you will have guided activities.

Traveler•Written July 2025I'm solo during that time, so I'd prefer a group trip to fill the time but if that's not possible I'll look at other options.
- Bamba TravelOperator•Written July 2025
This tour is an independent tour, although some experiences are in a small group. I am unaware of any group tours you can still join this last minute.
