Reviews of our Japan Tours for Summer
Feedback from guests who toured Japan during Summer.
Anonymous | Traveled in June
Great tour. The schedule has enough breaks including time to shop or explore and bus/train journeys to avoid fatigue. The region’s visited provided a variety of cities and topography to appreciate the different areas of Japan. The hotels were first class, comfortable and in most cases the restaurants provided options if Japanese cuisine was not favoured.
Stephen | Traveled in June
The Simply Japan tour by Explore is a fantastic introduction to Japan, its history, culture, and cuisine. The tour covers lots of ground travelling by train, and we visited lots of different localities. We were blessed to have a wonderful knowledgeable Tour Leader who quite frankly, brought Japan to life for us. Highly recommended.

Jamie was so awesome. He went over and above for us to have an amazing holiday .He gave us recommendations and helped us with any anything and everything . He is very passionate about Japan and a true asset to expat explore.
Celia | Traveled in June
Loved this tour, it covered all the major sites for a first time visitor and left some free time to follow your own preferences. Tour leader was EXCELLENT and so knowledgeable. Transport links worked fine, we did not have our own tour bus, we used public transport and occasionally sent our luggage on by road, that worked fine. A great trip!
Nishanth S. | Traveled in June
Trip was great and we travelled with my infant 8months old - initally we thought going a trip with infant (that too with a group) would a wrong decision, but the way everyone treated us that includes staffs, travellers around us - it think this trip is one among the best we travelled
Doug | Traveled in June
Initial booking was made easy by friendly and attentive staff. The guide was well prepared, knowledgeable and had good presentation skills. He related to the entire group and went out of his way to attend to everyones demands. He offered several extra tours for those who did not want free time. We however, relished free time to explore some different areas. The itinerary was a great overview of Japan especially for those of us visiting for the first time.
