- Carol· September 28th, 2025So much of a tour is who your guide is. Luckily, we had Ken and the tour was fabulous. We would not have changed a thing for our first time to Japan. We felt like we got a good cross-section of activities and pacing. And our peer travelers were awesome also. And the hotels and food were perfect! Highly reccomend!Show more
- Neil· November 18th, 2023We had an amazing holiday. Japan was all we had hoped for. The group worked so well, we all got on and became good friends. Shingo, our guide was totally great. He was so pleasant and helpful. His English not brilliant but he did a great job. We felt maybe a little more information on places and sights might have been good. He was constantly helping us all and looking after us. He made great suggestions for meals and always checked up on us all, even when we split into smaller groups for the evening. He went way beyond what he could have done and made everyone feel safe and well looked after. He even helped booking all our onward travel and ensured we were all ok on the day. Wonderful man!! The hotels were nice, if a little small with almost no storage in most of them! Breakfasts were generally very good. We saw and did so much. In fact, we felt sometimes it was a little too much to fit into each day, and either missed some things out or were too rushed, missing stopping and looking at leisure at things and shops etc. Shingo was so patient, even when we caused him to run a little late! Due to distances covered we spent a lot of time travelling which was an interesting experience. Just meant time at destinations was a little short. As Most of us were older we all felt very tired at the end of each day and struggled especially when we had to carry back packs whilst waiting to be reunited with luggage. Dont know what the answer is, if extra days added, then expense goes up. If itinerary cut back, then Interesting sights missed out! Overall, a truly great trip. We enjoyed it all!Show more
- Sam· August 3rd, 2023I had a wonderful time on this trip - Japan was incredible. Very full, but excellent itinerary - this trip is packed with culture, history and delicious food. Our tour leader was fantastic and worked incredibly hard to make the experience what it was.Show moreReview collected by Intrepid Premium
