I think I'm turning Japanese? We loved Japan. The people were amazingly friendly and helpful, the food was an experience in itself. The different culture had to be witnessed. The lack of litter was refreshing. The punctuality of the trains had to be seen to be believed.
We were incredibly lucky to visit Japan at peak blossom time and it was absolutely stunning! This trip is a well-planned and well balanced introduction to Japan, ranging from ancient temples and shrines to the buzz of downtown Tokyo, and includes visits to small, rural towns as well as modern cities. Finishing in Tokyo means you are familiar with finding your way around on Japanese trains by the time you get there. The tour packs a lot in and, although it didn't feel rushed, there are some long days and be prepared for plenty of walking.
We did Japan in April 2023 for our honeymoon, we wanted a stress free time that showed us the best bits of Japan and Intro Travel did not disappoint! Our Tour Leader Michelle was incredible, so friendly and helpful and just a fab person Before we flew, we had a few questions as we were travelling after the tour onto a beach stay which Intro happily helped us with, Michelle even helped us sort our onward train tickets to the airport for after the tour. The tour has the perfect amount of activities and free time, so you felt a good balance and wasnt rushed around or worried about not getting to do any additional things you wanted. There was also no pressure to attend everything although you wouldnt want to miss anything anyways. The amount of people on the tour was just right, there was no struggles with getting everyone on trains/buses or in places to eat/drink/dance. This was our first time travelling with Intro Travel but wouldnt hesitate to do so again!
