This tour was amazing with just the right amount of planned activities and downtime to choose what you wanted to do for the rest of the day! I was extremely anxious about traveling solo but I was fortunate to travel with amazing people in my small group and our CEO Yaz. From exploring the cities and temples it was a unique experience, and I?m so glad things went according to plan when we were traveling during the week of the typhoon appearing/ thank you Yaz for checking on updates!

Best trip ever!
Had a wonderful trip. Fantastic views, beautiful cherry blossoms and lovely people everywhere we went. The tour took us to different parts of Japan so I felt we got to see the many different aspects of the country.

My tour was all I could ask for. I am very grateful for the amazing group of beautiful humans and our above and beyond tour guide made it all perfect. From group dinners, cocktail bars, and hikes to temples this tour provided a well rounded trip of Japan and all the experiences/views it has to offer. I would be happy to do another tour with G adventures as I am sure all their tour guides are great and excited to show off a pretty spot!
