- CKChristian· June 11th, 2024Depends on the group size and the guide if the tour is great or just ok. Nice trip, good accommodation but less motivated / trained guide.

- AKatie W· September 18th, 2019Trip was definitely made better when you have a good tour leader. Tomomi was great, so helpful and made the experience easy and fun.Trip date: March 2019
- AKatie F· September 18th, 20191) Travelling with Intrepid had a great social aspect which allowed me to make many friends from all over the world. 2) The provision of a guide made travelling in a foreign country easy and stress free. This was especially helpful in restaurants as I cannot eat gluten. Having Tomomi to translate and communicate in Japanese allowed me to enjoy the traditional cuisine without worrying about being sick. 3) I greatly respect that Intrepid is environmentally aware.Show moreTrip date: March 2019
