Kyoto Tours in August 2026

It was a great tour and perfect for some with no knowledge of Japan. Honestly one of the most incredible tours of my life and now I am craving to return and go on more G Adventures.

I would say our experience was fantastic. Japan is so different from anywhere our family had previously traveled that we really appreciated our CEO's expert guidance, while at the same time allowing us flexibility to follow our own script and explore or adjust as needs may be. Everything from booking the trip to Yoko ensuring we made it safely onto the proper bus to the airport went as smoothly and enjoyably as I could ever have expected.

I?m so thankful that G Adventures made travelling abroad such an easy and enjoyable experience! It was a wonderful way to go off the beaten path, and experience lots of local culture along the way.

I had the pleasure of having Meg as our tour guide during our trip to Japan, and she truly made the experience unforgettable. Megs knowledge of Japans history, culture, and hidden gems was remarkable. She brought each location to life with engaging stories and insights that you wouldnt find in any guidebook. Her enthusiasm was infectious, and she went out of her way to ensure everyone in the group was comfortable and had a great time. Whether it was helping us navigate the busy streets of Tokyo or guiding us through the temples of Kyoto, Meg was always attentive and patient. If youre looking for a tour guide in Japan who is knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate, I highly recommend Meg.

Just completed the 13 day Japan tour with group leader Lachie and an excellent group! Lachie did a great job. I never felt stressed about getting around, even on our travel days and numerous changes along the way. He engaged well with all the group members and added to the positive atmosphere. There was a good balance of planned activities, as well as free time. Along with plenty of good recommendations if you don;t have anything in mind.

Just finished the 13 day Japan tour and it was absolutely awesome. I couldnt recommend it more, especially under the guidance of our group leader Lachie. Being able to commute around a foreign country without having to worry about timings or transportation was great, as it allowed for me to fully immerse myself in the new culture. Lachie was able to make me feel very welcomed and comfortable in Japan, additionally he was boats loads of fun, even hosting an incredible game of trivia. The accommodation was all excellent and the activities were extremely fun. 10/10 would recommend ¸
