    The tomato travel tour of Japan was okay but in our opinion could have been better. Pros: - the tour took us to a lot of historical places that we were interested in - travel was taken care of as far as the bus to take us around and the hotels we would be staying at Cons: - we did not receive our itinerary for the trip until the week before our departure and that was only after I asked several times - the itinerary provided did not provide us much more detail than what was posted on the site. We were hoping for a more detailed schedule so that we could make reservations during our free time in the towns we would be visiting - we were given little information about the places we were visiting. Aside from a few sentences given over the bus speaker on our way to the site, we weren’t provided with any maps or write ups about what we were viewing. We would arrive and be told to go off on our own, most of the time leaving us to google or wander aimlessly. I have been part of tour groups before and typically they hand you information about each site and give you a map on places to go visit nearby. Even if the tour group wanted to save paper, they could have assembled a PDF and emailed it to us ahead of time - some of the towns had little to no free time, we had no opportunity to freely see Kyoto sites not on the tour - the beer tour that was part of our itinerary and a deciding factor in us choosing this tour was left off without explanation. We later found out that the brewery stopped offering tours after Covid, something the tour knew about and could have removed that offering in their advertising - the hotels chosen for us to stay at varied greatly in quality and the Grand Hotel in Hamamatsu was downright disgusting. It was moldy, had no amenities for us, included pornography booklets in the room, and made you pay for a TV card to watch even basic TV. Overall I would not recommend this tour

    Don't do it - absolutely appalling, the tour guide babbles on about rubbish, you spend all your time on a bus and then they put you up in smelly accomodation

    I enjoyed every moment of the trip. It was wonderful seeing all the sites with a great tour group. Many thanks to AM for his hard work as our guide and for sharing so much of his culture with us.

    The tour from start to finish was fantastic, we had an outstanding tour guide, Ali, who shared the history and culture of Japan adding so much to the tour. This tour guide wa exceptional, she was waiting for us at Osaka airport on arrival, and stayed with us until we passed through customs on departure. We have done many tours with many companies and Ali was clearly the best guide ever. The whole trip was relaxed, while informative and enjoyable. The pace was measured and allowed plenty of time to take in the days activities. We would take another tour for sure
