- Rrobert· January 28th, 2025Not guided, guide no show on day 7. Poor organization as far as where to meet guides and distance from hotels. Overpriced and undervalued. Brochure description and delivery 2 different things. Too much free timer lost time trying to find places where to meet guides. Will never book again as money flows through 4 companies each getting a piece which leaves little value for actual tour.Show moreTrip date: January 2025
- MSMark· November 7th, 2024Quite a number of organisation issues including failure to be booked on one day trip and one half day trip. Communications delayed due to location of Tour Company out of the time zone. Had to spend an hour each day just trying to understand the itinerary updates. The last day included 8 hours of driving to do a rushed few hours at the destination. Hotels located quite a long way from the daily meet up pointsShow more

Traveler•Written April 2025Your help has been worthless so far as they refuse to get info here and I leave for airport in 3 hours. who and how do i contact this outfit once I land in Tokyo
Tourist JourneyOperator•Written April 2025I can see in your booking that you have a shared transfer from Narita to your hotel, so you'll be responsible for taking the Skyliner and subway on your own. Our customer service team will be sending you the voucher soon, along with all the meeting points and times for your tours.
