Japan Tour Reviews

5 - Excellent
Based on 177 customer reviews
10 days of bliss exploring Japan
5 - Excellent
  • Natasha Arndt
“This was our first group tour - a lovely bunch of people. Hayley, our tour guide, has been a gem! She is very knowledgeable about Japan and kept us entertained. She made sure we had enough suggestions of activities to enjoy in our spare time. She was quick on her feet when we encountered issues far beyond anyone's control on the bullet train and kept her cool when plans needed to change. Hayley is very respectful of the Japanese culture and manners Things to bear in mind when considering this tour: Definitely forward your luggage from Tokyo to Kyoto - but that means bring a small carry on so you can have 3 days worth of clothing to take to Hakone and Takayama. For traveling after that - a backpack is the way to go. Leave enough space in your luggage for all the gifts you will be buying. Rooms are often shared - with the majority of bathrooms being shared. If a couple - bear in mind that the pods are separated by gendered dorms. Make sure you have comfortable walking shoes - there is a lot of walking and climbing stairs Some of the experiences that have made an impact on me during this trip have included staying in a temple and having a meditation session with a monk while it was snowing outside. A Kendo class with a 4th generation Sumarai descendant. Learning how to make our own sushi and embracing the Japanese way of life”
Top Notch for a Good Price!

“I got into one of the first groups after Japan unlocked for tourism, and enjoyed an October excursion through the Land of the Rising Sun. From urban to country, mountains to sea, this tour provides a smorgasbord of Japan's landscape and culture. Excellent price for what is delivered here, pretty much all of the iconic areas will get visited. The included activities were fantastic, but there was still plenty of time for personal exploring. Food from Koya, the time in Hiroshima, and the floating gate in Miyajima, really make the 14 day tour something special. Take the recommendation to pack light seriously! You'll be a much happier camper if don't have multiple bags to juggle every time you switch cities.”
Best trip ever!

“Had a wonderful trip. Fantastic views, beautiful cherry blossoms and lovely people everywhere we went. The tour took us to different parts of Japan so I felt we got to see the many different aspects of the country.”

Japan Group Tours

No matter what your particular travel style might be, there is bound to be a Japan group tour to suit you.

  • City Sightseeing with a group in Tokyo: On a group tour of Tokyo, travel around the vibrant Harajuku district, the Meiji Shrine, and more with an expert local guide. Tokyo is a megalopolis with many facets and layers to it. With a guide by your side, you will get to visit the spots that many solo foreign travelers rarely venture. 
  • Explore religious sites on a Kyoto group tourThere are plenty of shrines, temples, and UNESCO heritage sites in Kyoto, such as the ancient Nijo Castle. Japan group tours usually cover a lot of religious sites in the kyoto. And the best part is group tour parties can skip queues at some popular attractions.
  • Relax at a hot spring with your group in HakoneThe hot spring culture and onsen tradition in Japan goes centuries back. One of the best places to have an onsen experience is Hakone. Travel around the 17 different hot springs in the area, and relax with your traveling companions. Once you are all rejuvenated, head to the local Shinto temple, or get your fill of art at the Hakone Open Air Museum.

Travel experience and benefits of group tours in Japan

  • Head up to the Kamikochi National Park and explore the mountains, forests, and rivers in a safer, group setting.
  • Accommodation and transport costs in Japan can add up when traveling solo in Japan. So a group tour is a good way to save money.
  • If you opt for a private group tour around Japan, you can control the pace of your adventure, without having to organize it yourself completely.

Tips when doing group tours in Japan

  • If you want to see Japan’s famous cherry blossoms in your group tour, book your trip between March and May.
  • Tipping is considered rude in Japan. So, do not be surprised if your tip is refused. If you want to give your tour guide or driver a token of appreciation, bring a small gift from your home country instead.
  • Get the meeting points or accommodation for your group tours written in Japanese. If you are trying to find it again after spending some free time exploring, you can simply pass the address to a taxi driver.
