Excellent
I simply loved all about that trip!!!! The destinations chosen and itinerary were perfect. The tour guides Jamie and Kanako were amazing. Please, don't change them. They are a perfect team, attentive and make you feel as a part of the group from the very first spot. Dabashi-san, our driver, was the perfect addition to those two. The tour wouldn't have been nearly as awesome as it has been without the three of them together- the magnificent three. The hotels were clean and had everything that we needed. The areas chosen for those were great so that I was able to have a little stroll for taking pictures every night. I got plenty of new friendships & memories out of this trip that have enriched my life tremendously.

This tour was spectacular. Our tour guide Jaime was excellent. He was so knowledgeable, personable, and extremely enthusiastic. Jamie made our tour a 10 out of 10 !!!! We were celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary and this trip will be in our hearts forever. Each day was adventurous and fun. We learned so much from Jaime about Japan. We have only been home a week and we miss our "" Bus Family"".

Exceeded my expectations. I didn't expect to feel so thrilled by all that my husband, Ian, and I were able to see and experience. We fell in love with Japan!
