I just completed the 13 day tour of Japan, and cannot recommend the experience highly enough! As beautiful as the country is, and as much fun our group was, the experience wouldnt have been what it was were it not for our guide, Elmer. His local expertise, thorough planning, and great personality added so much to the trip. Thanks Elmer, and thanks Intro Travel, for an unforgettable experience

Tour leader, Pepijn was exceptional in his knowledge & walk planning. He offered extra walks on free days and took us to restaurants great food at low prices. We saw, learnt and walked more of Japan than we ever anticipated. We had a great time and as a result we are very interested in other World Expedition tours! Thanks again Pepijn!

A brilliant introduction to Japan, its people and its culture. A top notch guide and a friendly, cohesive group made up for the terrible but unseasonal weather. Despite raining for 15 out of 18 days it didn't stop us from completing the itinerary (except for a landslide which closed the park where we were due to see the snow monkeys). And it was a packed itinerary, so not much downtime (which you might or might not prefer). The biggest disappointment for me however, was the lack of autumn colour. It was really too early in this part of Japan so I think the tour operator should revise their note where it says "Best for autumn colour". I was expecting to find the food to be a challenge but it wasn't, the food was good with plenty of choice and variety. The Temples, shrines, gardens and parks are exactly as you would expect. What you might not expect is that some ancient sites sit cheek by jowl with modern high-rise buildings but usually not the main tourist sites. The Shinkansen was actually better than expected, not to be missed. Plenty of ordinary folk wearing traditional dress, especially in Kyoto.
