    · August 21st, 2024
    When I booked my 8 day tour of Japan I was excited to get to see Tokyo and Kyoto with my 'tour group'. What I did not expect was that the 'tour' was really just a few day tours that were booked for me that I had to navigate my way through the city to find the starting points. When someone books a group tour they typically are expecting that they are with the same people doing the same tour. The group is staying at the same hotel/hostel and the tour guide and bus pick up and drop off the group at the hotel. I found that I spent a lot of my time just trying to figure out how to use the trains/subway/buses just to try to make sure I could get to the location that the day tour bus was waiting. Because of this I did not get to my first day tour on time and missed it altogether. Luckily after I contacted them I was able to rebook the day tour to Mt. Fuji on my free day in Tokyo. I was really disappointed that I had to spend all my time trying to navigate everywhere myself. I could have booked the day tours myself knowing that I would have to navigate by myself. I also did not appreciate that my 'group tour' was not a group tour instead I was the sole person in my group and I was just meeting up with people on a day tour for a single day. What I take away from this is that I will be booking my next vacations with tour companies that I have booked group tours with before that were actually a group tour and not just me on my own. The only reason I did not go with a bad rating was because I was able to see many great parts of Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Mt. Fuji etc. I was just disappointed with the overall organization and communication.
