China: fantastic trip, saw the sites, are good food, learned, Howard was top notch, pace and transport was perfect and all well-timed
Japan: Hidemi was great but there was too much trudging in the rail / metro system. Koyasan and Hakone were not worth it in my opinion for the amount of work it took to get there.

I would say that this was the trip of a lifetime! So much was packed into 11days. You are truly immersed in the culture of Japan. I felt emotional when I left because I had just shared this amazing adventure with all these people that I didn’t know, but then got to know. Noriko, again was absolutely exceptional.!!

This trip was a very positive experience that provided an excellent overview of Japan. The guides were excellent, the activities were great and safe, and the hotels were air conditioned and comfortable. I appreciated the washing machines and dryers in every hotel.

We had a truly special trip, during which we experienced so many firsts. The whole trip felt unique and off the beaten tourist track. Our time in Tokyo, surrounded by tourists, really highlighted just how special and intimate the time on the Okinawa and Ishigaki islands was. Our cultural excursions were of such a high quality compared with anything you can book yourself online. Having our CEO open the door into this amazing culture was invaluable to us and allowed us to access many experiences that would not have been available without a guide.
