Estuvimos visitando más o menos 4 lugares muy importantes durante un mismo día. Un viaje de 8 días por Japón, lleno de cultura, lugares históricos, hermosos paisajes. La hospitalidad y seguridad brindada por Europamundo ha sido algo que permite relajarse y disfrutar de las vacaciones. Haber realizado algo tan eficiente por mi misma,lo hayo imposible de hacer.

Japan Cherry Blossom Discovery Tour

Best price guaranteed

Have been on many guided tours in the world. This tour tops them all. A couple from Canada made our group feel uncomfortable by being demanding and rude sometimes. Min did a great PR job. Sculpture Park was amazing, especially the Picasso Museum. Seeing cherry blossom for the first time with Mountains of snow in background was a plus. Trying and tasting the local food was a gastronomical experience. With a small group I and the others received personalized attention. I have a problem with heights and stairs. I was lucky to have Min's arm to guide me so I did not feel apprehensive or falter. Where would you like to visit next?: Not sure, but I don't like cruising. Only land travel. Congrats to your travel firm for such a wonderful experience to Japan. Special thanks to Min.

The other passengers were very nice. The tour itself was jam packed and I enjoyed everything there was to offer. I was always exhausted at the end of the day but I knew it was well worth it because we were getting the most out of our time spent in Japan

The tour combined the bustle of Tokyo, the culture of Kyoto and the charm of the Northern Akita and coastal region. The food and accommodations were excellent and being able to travel on Bullet Trains, local trains and subways added to the local experience. Yoko was an excellent CEO, she was knowledgeable, helpful and kept the group organized. Overall it was an excellent tour of Japan!

It was nice to be in group with mixed origins. The itinerary was chalked out nicely. Pick ups and drop offs were punctual. Almost all guides were good, some excellent and a few so so. And Japan as such is a courteous country ?? The availability of Gluten free food should not be left to guides as it’s too late . If Europamundo takes initiatives snd inform all their vendors/hotels, the availability of GF meals and breaks Fast will be more appropriate. Europamundo should not take Gluten allergy lightly as it’s too late serves customers from Europe, UK, Australia etc Guides: Special mention about your guides is important. Asoaka was very cordial, helping and courteous guide. Ken was extraordinary. It is important for agency to know about Ken, he is full of praise ??other tourist can take benefit of Kens expertise and please pass it on to him as he himself should know feel that we tourist do appreciate GOLD. Yes Ken is a GOLD guide, an asset to Europamundo, took care of whole of our group, explained things so well and in a very interesting way. We had a particular problem of Gluten allergy, but Ken’s proactive approach to provide Vandana Gluten free meals till we were with him was amazing. Asoaka also helped with the GF meals., and walked extra miles to help us. The way both Asoaka and more so Ken helped their co-guides on a bilingual tour was amazing. We never felt that they ignored the English speaking tourists and we could see and appreciate that they covered in Spanish the deficiencies of their co-guides in a very polite and nice way. I know it would be asking too much snd almost impossible, but we do feel that we get such guides always. Thank you so much Atul and Vandana
