Japan Tour Reviews

“A day we will remember for the rest of our lives”
Kate is a remarkable guide. Her English is perfect and she put together a custom tour for us, that was perhaps, the best tour we have ever experienced. She planned a private meal with us and a local fisherman. When we returned to our boat no one could believe how much better our tour was than the ship’s excursion. It couldn’t have been better.

“A Wonderful Guide to the Japanese Alps”
George was a wonderful guide throughout our journey through the Japanese Alps. He was friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable, and just plain fun to spend time with. He took great care of us, made sure we were comfortable, and helped make each stop along the way memorable. One highlight was a fantastic little restaurant he introduced us to that makes its own soba noodles. It was exactly the kind of experience we would never have found on our own. We really enjoyed our time with George and would happily recommend him to anyone looking to explore this beautiful part of Japan!
