We cannot recommend Sandy highly enough! She planned an absolutely extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime trip for our first visit to Japan.

From the very beginning, Sandy took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for. We told her we weren’t interested in sitting around—we wanted to experience as much of Japan as possible—and she delivered an incredible itinerary that was perfectly tailored to us. Every day was thoughtfully planned with the right balance of sights, hidden gems, cultural experiences, incredible food, and unique activities.

We traveled through Tokyo, Kanazawa, Osaka, Kyoto, and Hakone, and somehow managed to fit more into 13 days than we thought possible. In fact, several locals commented that they couldn’t believe how much we experienced in such a short amount of time! Despite the packed schedule, the trip never felt chaotic because every detail was so well organized.

What truly set Sandy apart was her knowledge, flexibility, and responsiveness. She patiently worked through countless revisions as we refined our plans, always offering thoughtful suggestions and creative ideas that made the itinerary even better. Throughout the planning process, she was incredibly easy to work with and consistently responded quickly to every question we had.

It’s clear that Sandy genuinely cares about creating unforgettable experiences for her clients. If you’re planning a trip to Japan, do yourself a favor and work with Sandy - you won’t regret it!

Gora Kansuiro
Hakone

This ryokan was terrible and I definitely wouldn’t recommend anyone stay there. We expected it would be “rustic” and more traditional but it was nothing like the photos online, was very old with paint chipping and broken doors, had mold, a very strong mildew smell and the private onsen was smaller than a regular bathtub. They also did not understand our dietary needs and it made for a pretty uncomfortable stay and awkward interaction with the staff when we told them what we couldn’t eat at different parts of the kaiseki dinner. We relocated to Tokyo for the last night because we really couldn’t stay there. It’s hard to believe a night there is $500+ considering the condition the property is in.
