Julianna· January 5th, 2025You see a lot on this tour for a very cheap price. Funding your own transportation to all of these places would quickly cost thousands of USD. That being said, this tour is focused on seeing rather than experiencing. You look at something quickly, and then are rushed back on the bus. The itinerary is packed so full that you end up spending more time on the bus than you do at the sites. Also, I would highly discourage vegetarians or people with allergies or other dietary restrictions from doing this tour. Japanese food often has hidden ingredients (like chicken broth added to sauces), so you have to be very careful when ordering. The tour guides were not helpful with this, often just saying, "I'm sure you'll find something," and leaving it at that. Luckily, I know enough Japanese to ask about whether dishes contain things I cannot eat, but after visiting 2 to 3 restaurants a night and being told there was nothing I could eat at any of them, my husband and I would often just look for an Indian restaurant. It was really frustrating. It wouldn't be hard to make lists of vegetarian friendly restaurants, halal friendly restaurants, etc. in each city we visit, but the tour guides didn't have that and didn't seem interested in helping at all.Show more

Show moreTrip date: December 2024- Scooter club· October 24th, 2024Our guides Louis and Kiki were very kind, helpful and well informed. They did their best to make sure everyone enjoyed their time and saw as much as possible. With constantly changing groups coming and going I honestly don't know how they managed to keep track of us.Show moreEuropamundo commented on this reviewHi, we're pleased to hear you had a good tour experience with Louis and Kiki as your tour leader.

- DYDarwin· September 29th, 2024We liked the cities that the tour included. The hotels were decent. Some nicer than others. The main drawback of the tour is it is primarily for Spanish speaking audience. They provided an English speaking guide but the explanations were noticeably abbreviated than the Spanish version.Show moreEuropamundo commented on this reviewGreetings, We are pleased that you enjoyed the tour and found the content of the circuit to your interest and satisfaction.

- Diana· August 30th, 2024My mom and I loved the sights, the lore, and the funny tour guides (specifically Paco and Pablo)! Even after they left us at the hotel and moved on with the next group, they kept checking in with us because there was an issue with our return due to a typhoon warning. We really appreciate them.Show moreEuropamundo commented on this reviewThank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you had a great time and enjoyed the packed itinerary.

- ABlairBella· February 5th, 2023Both David and Pablo were incredible guides. They both had extensive knowledge of the places we went to and they also allowed us to explore by ourselves and gave us time to take photos. Very impressive that they can speak english, spanish and japanese. Both our guides had a great sense of humour and knew how to keep the tour group entertained.Show moreEuropamundo commented on this reviewHi, Thanks so much for the kind words!
