I just finished the Japan tour and it was amazing! It was my first time doing a tour and I was a bit apprehensive but as soon as our tour leader met us at the first accommodation my concerns went away. Nathan was the perfect tour guide he w..as welcoming, an expert navigator and went out of this way to ensure everyone was having a great time. The tour covered lots of activities that we would not have done normally such as sushi making and a samurai experience. The accommodation was great from a traditional temple stay to modern hostels and hotels. I would recommend the tour to anyone!!Read full review
This tour was amazing! I really liked how you had some spare time to do some key things that you want to do in the major cities like a tea ceremony in Tokyo. As well I liked that if you wanted to have dinner not with the group that was tota..lly okay if you wanted to try a different restaurant. The highlights of the tour for me were the snow monkeys, sledding and the temple stay. I really hope on your trip you have Sammy! Sammy was honestly a blessing and really made the trip! She checked up on me when I was sick and helped me recover. She was a shoulder to cry and laugh on. Definitely make sure you get her singing and dancing because she is amazing! Sammy was filled with amazing recommendations, was always there to help and would answer all my silly questions and if she didnt know something (which was so so rare) she would go out of her way to find it out for me. Thank you so much Sammy for making my trip to Japan so fun!Read full review

the company has truly blown away all my expectations that I had before coming on this trip. Having done already two the company tours beforehand, I already knew what they had put together would be an incredible experience. Now having done t..his adventure, I can say that would be an extreme understatement. From having nights that youll never forget and winning plush shiba inus and gudatamas at the unbelievably fun arcades to appreciating Japan and really understanding how unique this country really is, I know I can go home and cherish the memories Ive created with new lifelong friends. Nathan was our tour operator and I couldnt think of a better person to help navigate us through this awe-inspiring country. He is one of the most friendly, patient, and down-to-earth people I have ever met. He made sure each and everyone of us felt included and that we were having a good time throughout the trip. If something was bothering someone, he would help address the issue without any problem. He was also very thorough in helping people with their travel plans and goals, whether it be during the free time on the trip or even after! This tour was the perfect blend of culture and night life and I would 100% recommend it to my friends and family.Read full review
Where do I start? Myself and my partner did the 13 day tour in Japan, it was beyond what I had ever imagined. The accomodation was superb! The food was delicious, especially the local specialties. Nathan was our group tour guide, but honest..ly he felt more like our long lost brother, from another mother. He made each and every person on the trip feel included and somewhat like family. I have travelled with other group tour companies but nothing like this experience with the company! My partner and I have already put down a deposit for an upcoming trip. Cant wait to see what new trips you have on offer in the near future! Do yourself a favour and book the Japan the company tour!!Read full review

Unbelievable experience on this trip. I came to Japan not really knowing what I was getting myself into but was blown away with everything it had to offer. Nathan the tour leader was incredible. He made sure everyone in the group felt at ho..me. After doing this trip I know the best way to fit in as much as we did would be to go on this group tour. Everyday was something different, the food was incredible everywhere we went. This was my first the company tour but it definitely wont be my last. Highly recommendRead full review

GO TO JAPAN NOW! I had an absolutely amazing time on the Japan tour ! Nathan was a brilliant team leader and at times he just felt more of a friend - I honestly dont know how he managed to put up with me and my questions for 13 days - he ne..eds a massive bonus just for that! He was really attentive and always made sure we were safe and having a good time! He also had a really good way of managing expectations so that everything felt like even more of a bonus or had even more of a wow factor! Its definitely a thankless job at times but I do hope he know how much we all appreciated his efforts! I would definitely do another tour with him if he would have me back! Moving between destinations was seamless and it made such a difference- Im so glad I didnt have to navigate Japans transport system on my own! The accommodation is brilliant although I wasnt a fan of the pod system in Tokyo especially for three nights! The temple stay was a definite highlight for me - along with a spectacular view of Mount Fuji!
It was also nice that if your someone that needs your own space you can go off and do your own thing and just join the group later but I do think you miss out on trips and activities that have been carefully selected! One thing Id love to see on this whole tour would be a good food tour (maybe Osaka) most people come to Japan intrigued by the food and I found it could be quite hit and miss!
All in all dont hesitate just book this awesome adventure!Read full review
