Don was able to accommodate all of our requests seamlessly! He exceeded our expectations and is already working on another vacation for us in the upcoming months! I would 10/10 recommend him and his service!
- Japan Winter Tour with Monkey Onsen (Bespoke Private)
The tour was a great way to experience Japan and get an overall impression. At first, the trip was daunting, but the company made it simple by arranging it, buyng the tickets and booking guides. Obviously, one can do this oneself, but you need time and prior knowledge. The next time I visit I will do it myself. The guides provided were excellent and this was a highlight of the trip, each one was different and highly knowledgeable, and they provided a good commentary on Japan. there were some hiccups and things weren't properly explained. It needs to be clearly understood where you will meet the guide. Please mention that everywhere you go there are rental lockers to store luggage so you can see the sites without having to drag your suitcases around. Check the location of hotels in relation to the day's journey, so that a long train ride after the monkey visit is not needed. All these hiccups were sorted by the staff at headquarters, so the customer service at that end was also good.

I had some issues with Soukou, Washington hotel. The customer service was not very satisfactory and then I had some slight issues with Hotel Park Kyoto delivery service for luggage. That was a terrible experience because I was supposed to fly out that same day, but other than that that I went on the bed, the accommodations were very well taken care of and you know 10 out of 10 I would recommend to friends
