Hiroshima Tours in Fall

Excellent trip, well organised and a very good guide. The hotels chosen were first class. As well as seeing interesting cities and countrywide we had some great experiences such as the cookery lesson, origami making, tea ceremony and drumming. We also experienced the Bullet train and had two fabulous dinners included

Our tour was action packed sight seeing. Bamboo forest and Peace Park are two of my favorite outings. Our tour guide was great. The last night with our tour group included a dinner that was amazing. The staff and the attention to details unbeatable, along with excellent food. Whiskey Nova Steakhouse sits high above Osaka with great views.

We had a great trip to Japan and we found Europamundos trip well organised and covered a lot of good destinations. In terms of suggestions, please consider balancing the daily itinerary as some days were very crammed with a lot of spots and walking. You should also consider the age of the group members as everyone will not be able to walk at the same speed or have the same level of fitness. Further, food preferences will need more attention as vegetarian food was not provided for in most places.

The trip was extremely enjoyable for most part and showed us the urban and rural Japan along with the modern and traditional. We covered tokyo, Mt Fuji, Kyoto,Osaka, Okayama and Hiroshima. The guides were quite knowledgeable though we had 3 guides in 9 days Hotels were good except to the Candeo at Osaka and Hiroshima. Rooms were small and claustrophobic. Also there is one day in kyoto where the sightseeing involves a lot of walking Bamboo forest, Tenyurji, Imperial Palace, Fushimi Inari and at the earliest can end by 3. A small snack served o the bus would be very helpful. 6 meals were included in our tour but they were all similar with sukiyaki and sashimi/ tempura. The other cuisines of Japan were left out. Also, 1 or 2 buffet meals with alternate spread may be ok for outsiders. The option for vegan and vegetarian people was limited to tofu which was not expected in this day and age.The trip does say a lot of walking and we came prepared for that, but in many of the locations the time give is insufficient to cover or even see properly. Also, since the tour allows all age groups,the speed of the seniors/ older persons should be kept in mind.

Loved every minute of my 12 day tour through Japan. Jamie was a wonderful, information, fun and caring guide. The itinerary was wide and varied and not as rushed as I imagined. Watanabe our driver was so much fun but the safest driver. This is my 7th tour with Expat and I am sure that there will be many more. I totally recommend them.

Really enjoyed the trip. Not too tiring and a nice balance of group activity and free time. Full marks to Tour Leader Jamie who went out of his way to ensure everything went smoothly.
