We had an amazing time on the Japan Adventure tour. Our group leader, Nathan, was a like a homie. Made us feel super comfortable and at home in a foreign country. All we needed to know was where we needed to be and at what time we needed to.. be there.. the rest was done for us. If we had questions for Nathan, we asked and got a quick response. And if he didnt know, he would go out of his way to ask. Nathan is also a down to earth guy who fun to hang around with.
The itinerary was masterful. We spent an appropriate amount of time in each place. The contrast between locations was also excellent. Like moving from the hustler and bustle of Tokyo to the small town of Nagano where we enjoyed a fantastic meal prepared by an older Japanese lady all on her own! Not having to worry about transportation is a big plus as well. All we needed to figure out was how to get to our departing flight... and Nathan even helped with that!
Well definitely be using the company again. The experience was top notch and a great value for what we paid.Read full review
I went on the Japan 13 day tour and it was amazing! The accomodation was very good and in good locations. There was never short of something to do but we where always free to do our own thing. Our Guide Nathan was helpful and made sure that.. everyone was having the best trip possible! Ive made friends to last a lifetimeRead full review
Into travel was a great start to my Japan holiday. The tour included incredible sights and we experienced great activities that I mightnt have been exposed to otherwise. The tour guide not only made my first independent trip smooth and fun ..but shared fascinating facts about the places we went and the Japanese culture. There are many memorable moments that I will take away and remember for times to come.Read full review
This was my second time travelling with the company (1st Bali the company, 2nd Vietnam the company) and expectations never drop to what this company offers for what you want to experience travelling to another country, luxury to backpacking.. to homestays really gives you a nice variety on the country you are visiting. Our Tour guide Adam was truly amazing and would reccomend ‘ his knowledge was unlimited and always made you feel included and on the ball with meeting everyone needs as well as still being chilled nd a laugh which was a great atmosphere to be around whilist on your holiday!
I wouldnt so much reccomend the other tour guide we got for bali the company, inge, as lovely as she was I did not take it kindly when she couldnt hide how she wanted to get with my boyfriend (several times) which made him and also me feel quite uncomfortable which showed her lack in professionalism, but luckily it did not put us off coming back for more of what the company had to offer with our 3rd trip booked for japan.
Ps I would also reccomdend checking boy - girl ratios on trips before you book if your travelling as a couple, happy travels ’Read full review
What an incredible journey! I took the 13-day tour of japan, and it was totally sublime! Group leaders Nathan and Sammy were absolutely wonderful. They did an excellent job at making sure all of our concerns were addressed, and that everyon..e was having a great time. I particularly enjoyed our stay at the Ryokan in Nagano. The traditional Japanese-style room paired with the soothing sound of flowing water coming from a nearby river was utterly breathtaking. Another favorite of mine was the nightlife in Osaka and Kyoto. Karaoke was so much fun! My group was full of some incredibly kind individuals, whom I enjoyed my time with very much. If youre looking to have an awesome adventure exploring Japan with a group of very pleasant people, I highly recommend booking this tour. Make sure to grab Sammy or Nathan as group leader, their kindhearted and energetic personalities made for a deeply enjoyable experience!
Thanks again to group leaders Nathan and Sammy for the wonderful trip along with all the beautiful memories that came with it! :)Read full review
My trip was absolutely incredible!
I did the 13 days tour in Japan and I had the best time. I experienced so much of Japan and learned so much about that country. Osaka was soooo good and of course staying in a Buddhist temple was a once ..in a lifetime experience.
Our group leaders were amazing too!
Always there for us if we needed help or had questions ! Thanks to Nathan and Sammy you were absolutely incredible.
I will definitely come back to Japan!
Cant wait for my next the company Adventure!!!!Read full review
Just finished the 13 day Japan tour. It was great. I had lots of fun. It was my first trip away and the company did a fantastic job of taking the stress away and letting us just enjoy the experience. Group leaders Nathan and Sammy really ma..de everyone feel welcome. From day one it felt like everyone was friends already. They really care about you too. After the tour they made sure everyone knew what to do and where to go for their onward travels. I highly recommend the company to anyone looking for a fun trip.Read full review
This is was the first trip I had booked going solo and I was quite nervous about it.
As soon as I got to japan I dont know what I was worrying about.
the company give really clear instructions on how to get to the first hostel in Toky..o from the station and if you had any issues our guide Adam was easily contacted.
Firstly we had great guides for the trip Adam and Nathan who were really knowledgable about the places we visited but also great fun. The whole atmosphere was fun and relaxed from the beginning.
I cant believe how much I have seen and experienced in Japan in just 13 days. With this trip you get a really nice mix of the old and new. You see three very different citys all with there out highlights and 3 more completely contrasting areas. A highlight for me was staying in the ryokan in Nagano, you have to experience the Onsen, so relaxing after a morning seeing the snow monkeys (very cute).
All the hotels and hostels are fantastic comfortable beds in all and great facilities.
This holiday was so good Ive put down a deposit for two more the company tours. You will not regret booking!Read full review

I took the Japan tour in Septemeber and it was the best decision i made. I was nervous and not sure what to expect, but the team leaders resolved any worries and exceeded my expectations within the first hour. We stayed in some fantastic lo..cations, were the rooms were spacious and comfortable with stunning scenery outside.
I throughly enjoyed some of the activities we did which included, the samurai experience, the sushi class and visiting some historic locations both in Tokyo and Nagano. We experienced everything Japan had to offer within the 13 days of the tour, which made our journey full of memories. We visited and stayed in locations where most would only imagine. The evenings were chilled and had free time during the tour also.
Team leaders Adam and Nathan were fantastic. They were very knowledgable in the historic locations within Japan and answered any questions and concerned we had. Not only did they make the group be at ease and they made the experience more enjoyable! I cant thank them enough!
I would highly recommend doing this tour if your thinking about it. Go for it because you wont regret it!Read full review
This was my second tour with the company and Japan was an amazing experience from start to finish. The two group leaders Adam and Nathan were wonderful as well. They looked after everyone and made every one happy and have a great time. Even.. in your spare time they made sure you had plenty to see and do.
My favourite place was Nagano up in the mountains, and we went to see the famous Snow Monkeys - of course there was no snow in the summer, but there were tonnes of baby monkeys around that were super cute! The onsens (Japanese baths) are well worth trying as well.
Kyoto was my favourite city and the samurai experience, where we were taught how to wield a 400 year old katana from a descendant of the samurai and cut though a Tatami mat.
the company is a great way to see such an amazing country, so I would recommend for anyone to book Japan with them.Read full review
