The tour was very well organized. The bus was clean. The driver was incredibly friendly. Every stop was beautiful. There were many opportunities to buy food. We had about an hour each on site to spend at leisure. George, the tour guide, gives you an understanding of the culture of Japan and all the important information about the places. You can tell that he loves his job. All in all, we had a wonderful day!

The day was great but there could have been more information on the way to the first stop, less time at the restaurant stop and the ‘craft’ village would have made the trip more enjoyable. We were very lucky to get a really great view of Mount Fuji from the Lake which we really enjoyed.

it was amazing start to finish. very good trip. loved all the aspect of everything. very friendly staff. would definitely recommend

Thanks to our guide, Georges, who generously shared his knowledge and passion for Japan. Beautiful day, complete
