Good holiday with an excellent guide called Keigo Ninomiya. He was always available and provided some fantastic optional trips such as the temple of a thousand budhas in Kyoto called Sanjusangen-do.
I do not understand why this was not in the itinerary.
Ive just finished the Japan tour with Intro and it has exceeded all my expectations. The activities that were included were amazing mixing the old culture of Japan with the new. Michelle our group leader was incredible instantly made everyone feel at ease within the group and gave so many awesome recommendations for things to see in our free time as well as wicked food places I genuinely have made a friend for life until next time ¸
An excellent introduction to Japan. We have always wanted to visit Japan and this trip gave us a wonderful opportunity to visit the cities, rural areas, travel by train, experience Japanese cuisine and, best of all, explore by bike.
The itinerary was varied and interesting. Onsens (hot baths) have to be experienced and helped relieve tired and aching muscles at the end of the day.
We stayed in a mixture of modern hotels and the more traditional ryokans with tatami mats and futons.
The Japanese people we met were always polite, pleasant and helpful.
This was a travel experience like no other. Just do it.
