Both David’s were amazing and lovely guides who sincerely cared about a quality experience for our tour party.
Accommodations and meals were great.
Only part that was less than perfect was the airport transfer commutations but it all worked out
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 loved Japan seeing all there was to offer on our trip 🇯🇵. I didn’t like the 4 changes in our tour guides I feel you need to keep the same guides for the whole trip. I understand not all the people go to all the places but it would be nice to have the same group the whole way in the tour.

Terrific tour....
We stopped at choice locations..
David Solanes was our guide and he was amazing, taking considerable care of everyones questions be they related to the tour events, free time or other aspects of the country, culture and travel. He provided excellent contextual overviews and made the experience for everyone fun and most enjoyable. He was great at getting everyone moving through the events without a lot of waiting on others... truly passionate about the tour stops and ensuring all had a great time.
The hotels and locations were convenient and generally quite good.
Very well organised tour from the start to the finish. This was an extremely busy tour with lots of walking. The sites included in this tour were wonderful. The guides were very knowledgeable, friendly and fun. Transport on this tour was a little squishy.

Meeting new people from different parts of the world and traveling with them to different places and learning about the beautiful and unique culture of japan with the help of two incredible guides,i.e., Mr Reigutsu and Mr. David is what i liked most about the tour. Both of them were excellent guides and being in their company was truly enjoyable.
