“The trip was great because there were new experiences throughout. No two days were the same: from the cities, to the countryside, the ryokans and the ceremony at the Buddhist temple. Good for the body and the soul!”

“I recently returned from the Backroads of Japan and honestly can't say enough about our leader Alena. She is truly passionate about Japan was generous in sharing her incredible knowledge of the country and enthusiasm. She went above and beyond every single day to make sure each person on the tour had a great experience. Even on "free days" she made sure everyone had a plan and knew how to get from place to place. Thank you for making our trip amazing!”

“I couldn't have travelled with a nicer group of people and our group leader was amazing. We arrived just as the cherry blossoms reached their peak and had sunny skies throughout the 2 weeks, what more can I say”
