David Solanes is one of the best tour guides we have ever had and we have taken at least 25 tours. He was very professional, funny, attentive, accommodating, and very knowledgeable. Paco out of Tokyo was also great - he went above and beyond to accommodate our request to upgrade to first class on bullet train and made sure we are all ok during the train rides. The only thing that was tough was the monastery stay. Info from travel agent indicated it was an option but was not. It would have been better if there was a hotel option for the convenience of people who can’t rough it.

I thought the Japan tour was going to be a good trip but it exceeded all my expectations. The sights were wonderful, clean and unique. Japan is a beautiful country and the places we saw we visited were incredible. Each day had its own WoW moments and they were breath taking. The places we were taken to were highlights and each different which we appreciated. Jamie the tour leader was always there and helped so much. Japan can be hard to navigate but it was made simple and fun. The day were constant but not rushes or exhausting and flowed to enhance the trip. The bus driver and Jamies assistant on the tour were also so helpful and kind. I have been on 7 Expat tours and this ranks as one of if not the best trips I have taken and I highly recommend it.
