Meg | Traveled in September

5.0 - Excellent

Wonderful trip - perfect amount of time for every place. Goes to places I would never have been solo - takayama was a highlight and the special stays were a super cool experience. Lots of free time in this trip - which is nice to pick where you want to go. Time add ons were great, however not too many included experiences and dinners compared to other trips, which was a small downside. The TM we had was stella - lots of recommendations and perfect amount of information.

Japan Unrivalled was amazing! It took me everywhere that I wanted to go for my first trip to Japan! Our trip manager was so knowledgeable (and funny), as were our incredible local guides. I learnt so much and saw so much, I can’t wait to come back to Japan!

I had an outstanding time in Japan! I definitely recommend doing all the extra excursions that isn’t part of the shown itinerary even if they seem out of your comfort zone as well as have something planned for when you have free time. SN: Take advantage of the 7-11 snacks there. They are bomb!!! And don’t sleep on the sandwiches!

I have just returned from the 17-day Japan tour, and I have to say, it was one of the best trips I’ve ever been on! Our group leader, Lachie, was absolutely incredible. From the very beginning, you could feel his passion and deep knowledge of Japan. He helped me fall in love with the country in ways I never imagined. Lachie was calm, attentive, and downright amazing. His guidance made this experience unforgettable, and I truly believe this trip wouldn;t have been the same without him. A huge thank you to Intro for providing such an incredible experience. Japan is now officially my number one favorite country

Japan Adventure 17 Day

Nicholas L. | Traveled in July

5.0 - Excellent

The trip was on the whole very good. The highlight was our Trip Manager, who was very knowledgeable about things to do and places to see in Japan. The itinerary was compressed, but sensible for a weeklong trip in Japan. The one issue was lack of clarity in the initial trip documents about the time of the kick-off meeting on the first day. By the time I was informed, it was too late to change my flight, and I missed the kickoff meeting.
