    The trip was well organised and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We covered many big cities and did a lot of activities and visited many places. It was very informative and we were lucky to have few hours of clear sky in our visit to the mountain Fuji and managed to have clear views of the mountain and a lot of good photos. The extra bonus for us is our day visit to the Expo 2025 in Osaka. Our Guide Tetsuo was excellent and he was very helpful and made the trip very smooth and went over and above his duty helping out the members of our group who may need any help and was there when needed. The route of this trip was very good and well planned. Strongly recommend it.

    All good, very satisfied with the tour. Guides were very knowledgeable. At least a hike each in Armenia & Georgia would have been perfect.

    The tour was an excellent experience overall — stunning landscapes, friendly people, and a beautiful country to explore. I really enjoyed the journey. However, I was disappointed that we couldn't visit Song-Köl. The explanation about the weather was misleading — the camps simply weren’t open yet, which should have been communicated clearly beforehand. I could have booked for a later date. Also, the process of getting the visa invitation letter was frustrating and poorly handled, with slow and unclear communication from G and Sherpa. We started three months in advance, but Sherpa/G couldn’t get the eVisa on time. In the end, the "self organised" visa on arrival worked — but we still paid €200 for an unused eVisa service and LOI.
