Japan 9-Day Tours and Trips

Unforgettable family trip to Japan! The hotels were fantastic and perfect for families—clean, comfortable, and safe. Our guide Yuki was incredibly friendly and attentive to every detail, making our trip very comfortable. We felt safe throughout the trip. The guides were knowledgeable and very friendly, like having an extra friend with us. The food was delicious. Every meal was a hit with our family.

Tour was excellent and our Group Leader/Guide, Andrew, was first class from start to finish. Our group varied in ages dramatically and everyone got on superbly well. A really great group! Tour was full on as was expected. It is quite fast paced and gives you a good taste of lots of amazing places to visit in Japan. Although you wish to have more time in each place it is only a highlights tour and it certainly produces a fantastic Japan experience which will make you want to come back and explore more of this amazing country again and again! I for one will be back asap!

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.

The trip was on the whole very good. The highlight was our Trip Manager, who was very knowledgeable about things to do and places to see in Japan. The itinerary was compressed, but sensible for a weeklong trip in Japan. The one issue was lack of clarity in the initial trip documents about the time of the kick-off meeting on the first day. By the time I was informed, it was too late to change my flight, and I missed the kickoff meeting.

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.

Doni was an excellent tour guide and is very knowledgeable about the areas we visited. We were only a small group and through his leadership we immediately felt like a family. The only feedback I would like to leave is that it should be included that participants in this tour will be expected to walk 12000 steps on a daily basis, and not always on flat ground. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip but may have reconsidered it due to my health issues.
