    Our 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.

    We 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.

    My 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.

    It was really good, we saw a lot of places, sometimes we visit 2 or 3 places a day, sometimes it was a little too much but we saw more things that way, the tour guides were Paco and Pablo and those are the best, they had a lot of knowledge of everything they were talking about, kind, funny and made us feel like a family

    We loved this tour and especially our travel guide Pablo he was fantastic he really made this trip something special. There were 4 of us who spoke English and the rest spoke Spanish but Pablo made us feel very welcome. We enjoyed all the activities and places we certainly saw lot on this 5 day tour. I highly recommend this tour.

    The other passengers were very nice. The tour itself was jam packed and I enjoyed everything there was to offer. I was always exhausted at the end of the day but I knew it was well worth it because we were getting the most out of our time spent in Japan

    Both 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.
