    Bruce & Yukiko were great, amazing services from both of them❤️👍 Hotel is fine but I wished my husband & I can stay in 1 bed but it was small for 2 people. Also, I wished we stayed in the Universal studios hotel for a few days to spend at least 3 days there with the full fast pass & 2 days in the world fair even it would cost us more. Staying so long in the city is not really necessary, same as the farm houses tour & others. We decided to skipped the castle since the kids were tired. But overall was good since we’re able to spend time with both kids. 1 day in world fair & Universal studios were not enough. Seems like those 2 things the kids enjoyed the most.They did not care much about the other places at all this time.

    My wife and I wanted to go to Japan with our kids ages 4 and 8. We wanted a custom iternary to visit all the theme parks (Sanrio, Disney, Universal, and Legoland) and activities that were fun for kids (Pokemon Centre, anime stores, and science centre). We worked with Amber and UME to plan the trip April 2025 and went on our trip August 2025. It was nice to have people experienced in Japan help us out and that removed the stress of planning, logistics, and transportation. The private transportation was especially nice with young kids and we could take as long as we wanted at the places we chose. Our trip happened during the Air Canada strike and our flight was delayed by 3 days. Thankfully, Amber allowed us to shift our schedule and changed our flight pickup for free. That helped put out minds at ease during that unexpected strike. During the trip, we used WhatsApp with an e-sim card provided by UME so we could always communicate with the driver, tour guide, and Amber. If you want a stress free custom experience in Japan, I would highly recommend booking though UME and with Amber.

    UME planned a custom trip around the cities and sights I chose (plus some great ones they recommended). We went back and forth quite a bit to nail down the details, and they handled it all smoothly. They arranged the hotels, transportation, and English-speaking guides at every stop. Phoebe was incredibly patient and responsive with all my changes, both before and during the trip. Honestly, their expertise and customer care are top-notch.

    It was such a great trip! Our guides Andri and Karen were amazing—always on top of things and ready to solve any problem. Before we took the kids to Disney, Andri reminded us to watch out for the heat and avoid too much sun, and when we went to Universal Studios, Karen even had cold drinks ready for us. They were so thoughtful!

    We had such a great time on this trip! Our guide was super friendly and always there to help us out. The itinerary was really well organized, and during our free time, he even recommended an amazing Kobe beef restaurant and a few extra spots we could check out on our own.

    Nathan

    Asked on February 9th, 2025

    We would like to book the family tour but are having some trouble with the accommodation portion. If it is possible to have one queen bed and one single bed that would work. Alternatively having an extra mattress would be okay. My son is 10 years old and will need a full sized single bed mattress.

    Accommodation
    • UME Travel Co. LtdOperatorWritten February 2025

      In Japan, a double room is normally very small at around 16-19 m² which is not able to add 1 more extra bed, but the twin bed is usually bigger than double bed which is about 20-25 m². For your family, do you think we can arrange either a twin bed + 1 extra bed or a triple room with 3 singe beds for you?

    John

    Asked on September 24th, 2024

    do you see a few kids on the 10 days Japan Tour with Kids? I dont' want my kid to be the only one on the tour. If you usually have another kid on the tour, that would be advantageous for him
