I am on my way home after the Japan Experience and it was absolutely INCREDIBLE!! This was my first solo trip abroad and it was fantastic.
the company are so well organised, the app was brilliant my phone didn;t work once I got out of th..e airport; but I had saved the instructions and managed to navigate Tokyo on my own with just those! 10/10 the company. Also any time I emailed them they where excellent in there responses very helpful and over the phone too.
My tour leader was Anna J and I cannot say enough good things about her, she was knowledgeable, helpful, hilariously funny and the best leader I could have asked for (thank you mumma duck ¦†) ï¸ Also bowling and connect 4 CHAMPION!
I have already booked a deposit for another trip and cannot wait! I had booked this purely based on recommendations from a friend who has been on the companys trips before and I would and will recommend them to anyone who is looking to have a stress free trip! I felt safe and looked after at all times.
The experiences and activities where absolutely top notch! From the onsens in Nagano to the snow monkey park I laughed every single day to the point of stomach aches some times and have made some wonderful friends! The balance of free time and activities I felt was perfect, and the travelling although it hard going was absolutely manageable (20/30K steps a day) just be prepared to sleep very well! ‚
The accommodation at every stop was excellent, shampoo, conditioner, hair dryers, towels anything I needed! Never once felt like a hostel in the way people think of them, definitely more hotel style!
Overall if you are a solo traveller, family, couple or friends I would say you will not be disappointed the company is excellent! Cannot wait to go again! ï¸ Hopefully with Anna J 10/10!Read full review
Have done NZ North and South, Vietnam, Cambodia, and most recently Japan! This company has my heart. Tour Leaders James Gregory, Geena Wise, Becca, and Megan Elliot are absolute superstars!
Had an amazing experience in Japan with our the company guide, Elmer!! Japan is a beautiful place to visit with so many unique and wonderful experiences! The tour really highlighted all of the beauty and culture of the country and it was ma..de so much better by Elmer! He was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable with each day s activities and to my wonderment was able to bring us all over the country through the labyrinth of trains and other modes of transport with ease! It was obvious that he had a lot of experience navigating in high stress situations. Beyond knowledge, he was very attentive and kind to all the members of our group and even went out of his way to get a cake for someone s birthday! I can honestly say that I don t think I would have enjoyed myself half as much had we not had him with us! Hoping to be able to take another tour with him in the future!!Read full review

We Got to see a bit of everything, all the Way from awe..some japanese nature and traditionel Temple rituals to the crazy neon lights and arcades in Tokyo and Osaka. To top it All off, Jordan was a fantastic group leader and was great at bringing people together for a good time - definately would like to travel with you In the future mate!Read full review

Exploring the Nagamachi Samurai District was a fascinating journey into Japan's samurai past. The well-preserved samurai houses and narrow streets provided a glimpse into the lives of samurai families. The district's historical atmosphere a..nd beautifully maintained gardens made it an enriching cultural experience.Read full review
I just finished the 13 day Japan tour and can say I'm going home with memories of a lifetime. This trip is a great mix of getting to visit the best parts of Japan, enjoying unique experiences and free time to explore personal interests.
I ..had the incredible Gemma as my tour leader and she helped make the trip better than I could ever have asked for. From day one she made sure everyone arrived safely and got settled, and then led us on a whirlwind tour of Japan in 2 weeks. She was full of knowledge, got us where we needed to be on time, and made sure everyone was comfortable with each of the days plans. She also injected a great positive and humorous energy into the group that ensured each day was as memorable as the one before (not forgetting the selfies we;d get on our phones when she was taking photos). Gemma connected with us in a way that she felt like a friend, and not a group leader. Even on the day we tried to see Mt. Fuji but the fog meant we could not see a thing, her uplifting attitude meant we were able to laugh at how funny it truly was.
Gemma went above and beyond to support every member of the group, giving us suggestions of places to see/where to eat, and going through onward plans on her time off with us to make sure we could continue on with our journeys once the tour finished. If you are lucky enough to get her as your tour leader, you are in for an absolute treat.
I;m very grateful for all I got to do and see on the trip, the wonderful friends I;ve made along the way, and to Gemma for helping make memories which will always stay with me.Read full review

Wow. We have just finished our first ever the company trip to Japan. We had high expectations for Japan as a country but the tour itself and our amazing guide, Jord, made it even better than we could have imagined. Jord is really knowledgea..ble, organised and passionate about travel. He may have started as our tour leader but we have definitely come away as friends. We are already planning our next the company trip to meet up with our new mates & are hoping Jord can join us!Read full review
This tour has been an incredible experience, amazingly organised, packed itinerary but absolutely worth the travel, our tour leader Zoe is awesome and went out of her way to make this the best experience, from helping me source the best veg..an food at each destination to ensuring smooth travel and optional evenings out as a group to recommendations for our free time. Would 100% recommend the company if you;re thinking of heading to Japan!Read full review
An absolutely incredible trip in Japan, especially with Zoe as our group leader. Throughout the trip we had lots of activities planned by the company which was great as we didn t have to worry about missing out on anything. Also we had en..ough free time to be able to explore and do our own thing as well. Going from the crazy cities into the quiet mountains within a few hours was amazing and very needed at times.
Zoe was super fun from the first interaction and was brilliant throughout the entire trip. She ensured we have had good recommendations in every location for food and activities and even organised a bowling evening for one of the free evenings. Felt like we were experiencing Japan with a very well organised friend which was just what we needed!
The trip in general was really well planned and getting from place to place was made very easy with Zoe :) thanks for making it a trip of a life time!Read full review
