Customer Reviews
- Luisa· June 6th, 2025The hotels were really nice, always near a central shopping area, the food that was included was really good as well. Nadia, Kiku, Ken and Pablo were the best tour guides I have ever met, so passionate about Japan's history besides being so kind. It was really a fun experience thanks to them. Beware, bring your own shampoo to mount Koya :pShow more
