The best experience of my life!! Papsii and Ming were an absolute pleaser. Every single thing ran smoothly after using every form of transport. The accommodation, activities and day trips were amazing. Every day got better and better. I will definitely be booking a trip with the tour operator soon and hopefully it will be with Papsii. Thank you so much Papsii and Ming for a trip i will never ever forget.
Kumano Kodo: A fascinating insight in to Japan. This was an excellent trip that we thoroughly enjoyed, giving an insight into contrasting landscapes/areas of Japan and to its culture and food. After initial exploration in and around Kyoto, the four days on the Kumano Kodo trail were quite demanding (particularly because it was so hot on our departure) but we got a fascinating insight into one of the more rural areas, staying in traditional Japanese hotels. A good proportion of the trail itself was in trees with occasional viewpoints and shrines, it also passed through villages and rural settings. The trails are well made and on some days the walking was long, as set out in the trip notes. The traditional Japanese food we ate every day was elaborate and carefully prepared – a bowl of sticky rice and an array of up to around 10 other small dishes of food for each person – at each meal, including breakfast; lunches were bento boxes. There was much fresh seafood by the sea. Travelling on the efficient Japanese public transport was interesting and enjoyable as it is indeed very punctual, but also uncrowded and generally very comfortable. The last couple of days in Tokyo were different again – a short time to get an impression, but as we are not really city people, this was fine.
Thanks for the great tour Hi Joyce, We are leaving China today. The trip was very pleasant due to the excellent service provided by you and your team. Thank you so much for the great experience.
