- SMSandra· January 8th, 2025The tour overall was good. We got a package with information about the hotels and the day tours each day. From the other reviews, I figure that it was our responsibility to find our way to the meeting point of each tour. To us, it wasn't a big deal since we have done it in the past. We had some questions which were promptly answered. The hotels were good and well-located. The only minuses of the tours were that in one case we didn't have exact information of where was the meeting place and when arrived we were asked for a voucher, which we never received. There was also miscommunication about the transportation arrangements to Nara. There was contradicting information in the package. At the end, we were advised to take public transportation and ask for reimbursement. The day tours were good. Some had issues including not going to the one of the places indicated in the itinerary. The worse tour was the fish market. We didn't see the value of it.Show more
Tourist Journey commented on this reviewThank you for sharing your detailed feedback about your experience, Sandra. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour overall, found the hotels to be well-located, and received prompt responses to your questions. We do, however, want to sincerely... Show moreTrip date: December 2024 - ELEstefania· November 18th, 2024The organization was very poor. If you are looking for a tour where you do and figure out everything on your own, then this is your option. If you like something organize that at least you can contact the tour guides and that the "operator" doesn't change everything last minute, then this is not your option. You won't be seeing the same group of people in your hole tour, you will need to go in your own to the "meeting points" and with not assistance from the operator. They even change one of the hotels while I was at the hotel checking in. (The staff at the hotel couldn't find my reservation, so after an hour of me being there I started sending messages to the operator and about 40 min later they answer, after waiting for a response, they told me that, I was in the wrong hotel, that they send the address wrong in 3 different times, including package and emails). This is the time that they just ignore my questions about the inside t with the hotel. It was kind of stressful the hole situation with every day tour.Show moreTourist Journey commented on this reviewThank you for sharing your feedback, Estefania.

Traveler•Written January 2025What airport do we book to Tokyo (Haneda or Narita)
- Tourist JourneyOperator•Written January 2025
You are welcome to book in any of both airports. Narita Airport is a little father away from the center and Haneda Airport closer. To provide you with a price for airport transfers, please let me know if you'd like a private transfer or shared one. Keep in mind that the shared transfer doens't drop you in your specific accommodation but close by, while the private one does!

Asked on December 4th, 2024Does it include transportation from Tokyo airport to the hotel? What are the pick-up schedules? If it's not included, what is the price? What are the tentative hotel names in the superior category? Does it include transportation from the Kyoto hotel to a train station? If not, what is the price for that transfer? Or how can guests travel from the hotel to the train station to return to Tokyo?
- Tourist JourneyOperator•Written December 2024
Airport transfers are optional and are charged extra. The price varies depending on whether you choose a shared or private transfer, as well as the airport. Typically, shared transfers cost between $20-40 USD per person, while private transfers range from $150-200 USD per person. For transportation from the hotel to the train station in Kyoto, guests can use public transport or take a taxi. Public Transport: Kyoto has an efficient and user-friendly public transport system. The price for a one-way subway or bus ride typically ranges from ¥210-¥300 (approximately $1.50 - $2.20 USD) depending on the distance. Taxi: A taxi ride from most hotels in central Kyoto to the main train stations (such as Kyoto Station) typically costs between ¥1,000-¥1,500 (approximately $7-10 USD).

Asked on October 10th, 2024What time do I need to arrive on the first night?

April
Asked on October 1st, 2024On the 10 Day Best of Japan Tour Package, does the Optional Transfer to Tokyo Center take us back to the Tokyo airport? How long is the travel back to Tokyo?
- Tourist JourneyOperator•Written October 2024
No, it takes you just to Tokyo Station (its just a bullet train). If you want, you can request us to add an extra private transfer from the station to the Airport (please tell us if to Narita or Haneda) or you can go from the station.

Carole
Asked on July 7th, 2024Would you please provide me with details of the hotels we will be staying in during this tour?
- Tourist JourneyOperator•Written July 2024
Yes - bathrooms are not shared. Boutique category is 4 stars hotels! The one that we will specifically assign you will depend on the availability at the moment you book. However, all of them are the same category.
- C
Carole
Traveler•Written July 2024Can you also confirm if the price includes breakfast at these hotels?
- Tourist JourneyOperator•Written July 2024
It is not included, but we can add it. Anyway, we suggest keeping it with the "room only" rate, as some starting times of the tours might clash with the breakfast. It is super easy to add it directly in the hotel for the days that you have time, but if we add it we need to do it for the whole reservation.
