Well organized, great hotels, great transportation, great food….excellent guide ()
a great trip, lots to see in a short time
This was a great itinerary staying 3 days in Tokyo, 3 days in Kyoto, 2 days in Hiroshima and 2 days in Osaka. It covered all the most interesting and historic sightseeing and also covered rural areas visiting pottery place and tea plantation
This was a great trip and involved a lot of walking. Our travel director was superb and taught us about the culture throughout the trip which made it extra meaningful. My advice is to not go during the hot and humid months or when Japan is having a national holiday.
Excellent trip! Our tour guide was Noriko. She was patient, caring and extremely knowledgeable about each of our stops. It had been 30 years since I was in Japan and the new memories mingling with the old made our trip even more worthwhile. The accommodations were very nice and comfortable. Thanks again for the trip and the small group hospitality.
