- Harpreet· June 15th, 2024If you are a first time traveller, this is the best tour to take to begin your travel experience. I felt really safe and comfortable throughout this trip. The whole package is very well designed, allowing you to experience the modern and traditional sides of Japan. You will do a lot of things and it is very busy but all worth it. I was lucky to be in a lovely group with incredible people so it was really fun and I ended up making friends. 🤗😁 Our adventure leader Terry is the best ❤👍😁 We manage to visit all the places in our itinerary and on time. He arranged our JR pass, IC card and accommodation. He ensured we all were enjoying ourselves and everyone's interests were considered when he gave recommendations for places to visit. He really looked after all of us and ensured we all had a great time. We did not have to worry about anything when he was with us. And when we all separated to go home first of all that was very emotional. Terry and the group checked in on all of us until we reached home. So overall I would say, just book this trip already and come and experience this lovely country. ❤❤❤🌸🌸🇯🇵🇯🇵Show moreThe Dragon Trip commented on this reviewThank you so much for your kind words! Your photos look incredible!! We'll pass your comments to Terry as I'm sure it will make his day!Trip date: June 2024
