The interactive preparation was quite fun. Being able to learn while making added so much. The Hiroshima visit was heartfelt as we heard a firsthand experience story.
I've loved all the G Adventures tours -- the small groups, the interesting itineraries, and the enthusiastic, knowledgeable and very competent guides (and drivers too!). All three trips I've been on were fantastic introductions to the country (India, Turkey, and now China and Vietnam). I'm already looking ahead to what my next adventure might be!

Very informative and fast paced. I believe following the tour we had a much better understanding of the Japanese including some of their customs and their way of life. Having an excellent tour guide like we had made the entire tour worthwhile.

This was a top notch company and the climbing was great. The guide was completely safe and with high winds (too dangerous to climb) we worked together to amend the plans. This made me feel safe. (Note that these are high altitude climbs and one needs to have some climbing experience.) (Also in this time of the year it was cold and at times windy.) I cannot say enough about the Sherpa and the guide. An excellent time and a grand adventure.
