Top Japan Day Trips

Omar is great! Charismatic and very attentive. Always keeps an eye on all members of the travel group and always keeps them in a good mood! Everything under control at all times, so there were no delays. The tour was designed very interestingly, unfortunately due to the weather one could not see Mt. Fuji to the summit, but nobody can help that. Next time I will travel with Omar again, no matter where :)

Our driver Ro was super and drove us to the most important spots for perfect photos. It was a real shame that pickup directly at the hotel was not possible for solo travelers, as the trip was specifically advertised that way. Otherwise perfect and I would recommend the trip to everyone. recommend.

We enjoyed the tour, which was well orchestrated, educational, fun, and included a truly beautiful nature walk through an ancient cedar forest to the snow monkey park. Our tour leader Hiroshi-san was a top-notch guide who was personable and excellent English ability and a deep reserve of knowledge and history and interesting facts. Our driver, Ozaki-san was a skilled driver who was so friendly, kind, and patient with all of us. Together, they (and the snow monkey who decided to hang out with us for quite a long time) made the tour. Hiroshi-san's introduction to Zenkoji opened my eyes to the true significance of Zenkoji, which became so much more than simply another magnificent Japanese temple. Thanks to Hiroshi-san, I'll always remember Zenkoji's mystery and significant place in the history of Buddhism in Japan. As for the snow monkey park, I love that the snow monkeys are not held in captivity but rather come and go to the onsen as they please. The downside to this is there is no guarantee the snow monkeys will be there when you arrive. However, at a minimum, you will experience the beautiful walk through the cedar forest, and Hiroshi-san has a good contingency plan ready if needed. I highly recommend this outstanding tour!

Very nice trip, starts early, Chen (the guide) was very helpful the entire time, was a very nice guide. She explained everything clearly and still gave us a bit of a leeway when it came to departure. I'd highly recommend this. Lots of beautiful views and nice small history lessons to boot.

This was a fantastic tour! Our guide was very funny and kind, and gave us a lot of information to and from the villages. It was absolutely stunning and felt like we had entered a different world. So beautiful and very much worth it! Thank you to our amazing guide, the wonderful lunch, and easy bus rides.

We had a great time, Yoshimi-San and our driver were so knowledgeable,professional and very sweet at the same time. They were flexible and understanding to. It is a great way to visit some parts of Tokyo , learning some of their wonderful culture and traditions. Thank you . Alejandra

First, I’d like to recognize and recommend our tour guide, Nozomi, for her outstanding performance, great customer service and her deep knowledge of the subject. Our visit to Nikko and the World Heritage sites will leave in our memories and our hearts an indelible impression forever.

Great way to see the snow monkeys when not included in your own tours schedule. It is a long distance from Tokyo and would be hard to get there by yourself. The transport was comfortable, with good leg room, access to wi fi and comfort break. The meal provided was a local speciality but you need to consider getting food on return journey as delays can mean you are too late back to get an evening meal. The monkeys put on a lovely show and we were lucky to see so many, with some even taking a dip in the hot spring pool. A long day but was worth it for me.
