Our guide, Karique, was excellent, informative, friendly & always helpful.
The Shogan Trail was a well thought out itinerary. It was full of interesting
contrasts i.e. large modern & busy cities e.g. Tokyo, historic cities e.g. Kyoto, Nara, & Nagasaki, and rural & coastal Kyushu including a beautiful boat trip amongst many small islands. The food was interesting, but not always suitable for vegetarians & vegans. You must be prepared for sunny warm weather & wet cooler weather. Heavy rain lasting for hours & causing the suspension of the Bullet Train services resulting in congestion of trains & people. The weather means you may not see Mt. Fuji. The leaves were only just beginning their autumn colours.
The dates of my trip were 27th. October to 7th. November. I thoroughly
recommend this trip as a great introduction to Japan.

Collette helped us experience things we would never do Iif we had been on our own.
Our guide, Kelly, had a huge job because it was a big group, a long trip, a huge city and he was our only guide.
We have been on trips where there were different guides for different areas.
I especially enjoyed the hands-on events… the lacquer boxes, sushi/origami lessons, t stenciling.
I also thoroughly enjoyed the time we had with the geisha.
Our hotels were over the top.
The food and presentation of it was amazing.
I have already told everybody I know about it.
Great job!!!
