    The structure of the tour covered many interesting sites yet was flexible enough to allow for free exploration. Plus, the tour guide Nobuko Nakamura was excellent in her job making the tour more enjoyable. The choices of hotels to stay were also top notch with their buffet breakfasts. The transportation at the beginning and the end of the tour for the airport was also smooth and efficient.

    The tour was well organized and our tour guide was knowledgeable and well prepared. The experiences (tea ceremony, gold leaf, sushi, and stenciling) were fun and added to my experience learning about Japanese culture. Good value for the money. Very enjoyable.

    Tour manager, Yoshiko Ono was very well organized and maintained a good time schedule as she wanted to share as much sights to visit during our stay. When we had a free day, she did an options tour for those who were interested in spite of the heavy rain on that particular day. She got to know each one of us personally and exhibited understanding, caring and was very patient.
