The travel itinerary exceeded our expectations and provided a wonderful and informative snapshot of Japan life, history, culture and beauty. Day one was very wet and windy and the move to the national museum was a master stroke. I believe the National Museum should be added to the schedule and a couple of hours allocated for this tour. National museum, Mt Fuji, Gifu Shirakawago, Kinkakuji Temple, Matsumoto and Himeji Castle, Okayame and Hiroshima. The exposure to a range of Japanese food at the lunches will be long remembered. It was unfortunate that both out tour leader and tour guide were subjected to some unjustified criticism by members of the party, who had either not read the tour program and its inclusions or had forgotten what they had read. Both leaders handled the situations in a calm professional manner and are to be commended.
A trip that I will cherish forever! An amazing way to experience Japan in a short trip for your first time. Being able to meet people all over the world and share the experience was perfect. For the price and freedom to explore when not busy was worth every cent. Almost overwhelming how much you get to see and do in the prettiest place in the world. Felt safe and if I needed anything my guide was able to help. Met so many amazing people that I consider valued friends in just 10 days of fun. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Not totally reflective of tour We enjoyed our trip and Muchan our guide was great. I enjoyed temples and shrines however for me I would have liked to have added one or two venues that showed Japanese technology
