I think it was a lot of fun exploring different cities with a bunch of other travelers who were open to new ideas/experiences. Amie did a great job guiding us through this fast paced tour of Japan.

Very informative and fast paced. I believe following the tour we had a much better understanding of the Japanese including some of their customs and their way of life. Having an excellent tour guide like we had made the entire tour worthwhile.

Say Konnichiwa to Japan – a diverse land of culture, innovation and cuisine. With your new group of friends, you’ll get your fix of sushi and shopping in Tokyo before soaking up Kanazawa’s crazy Samurai culture (this is a great place to knock back a couple glasses of sake, too). Wander gorgeous gardens and temples, then brush up on your world history at Hiroshima at the sobering Peace Park and Museum. Spy geishas in Kyoto’s Gion district and get your Beyonce on at an Osaka karaoke bar. You’ll also have loads of free time to customise your trip with activities you want to do, either solo or with your new mates, so you won’t miss anything on your bucket list.

Great experience! We saw wonderful parts of Japan, including Tokyo, Mt. Fuji, and Hiroshima. The hotels were wonderful! Our travel director was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. My advice to Trafalgar is to reduce the number of visits to temples and shrines. Maybe allow more free time. Also, there were too many set Japanese meals with no options.

Japan in a week was incredible! The tour and the people were a blast and created memories ill cherish for the rest of my life! Tokyo and Kyoto were amazing, the Nara Deer park add on is well worth the money and day!
I do wish we spent a little more time in Osaka however

Loved it all. The usual mix of guided tours and free time, with excellent hotels and a good crowd on the bus. Of course in any country there is so much to see and one tour cannot see it all but this was certainly a great effort at experiencing as much as possible within my time and budget constraints.

Our tour through Japan was a wonderful experience The sights, food, and people alike were all so memorable and brought us a great sense of the culture and history of Japan. Our tour guide Ken Igarashi gave us a great introduction to the sights of Tokyo and shared with us some of his vast knowledge and insight about historical events and landmarks, which was very appreciated. Our next tour guide, David Solanes, was a fantastic guide that went out of his way to explain the importance and impact of all the places we visited during our trip. His dedication to his work really shined through and made our tour one of the most unforgettable experiences of our lives. Definitely recommend having Ken or David as a tour guide
