Thanks for the amazing trip plan by kimkim and our local travel specialist Cannon. We had truly unique experiences including a grand sumo tournament in Tokyo and a private dinner with a Geiko in Kyoto with a translator. The trip details were very well thought out and the train tickets and transfers were seamless. Cannon was always available to help with questions and trip adjustments that we requested. I will definitely use kimkim again in the future.
Hotel Reviews
Hotel location was excellent, hotel was heavily used and room was not very clean.
Excellent hotel, meals very well done, hot baths amazing.
Activity Reviews
Top activity of the trip. Didn't realize how unique this experience would be. Having the translator made this an amazing expereince.
We didn't realize how touristy this market is. Would have preferred to go to the inner fish market where they auction the tuna.
Excellent day and our guide was really good. What a beautiful small town away from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo.
We loved the private sushi making experience. The chef was excellent.
As noted below, all of our Kyoto experiences with the guide were below average. He didn't have much personality or seem to be an expert on anything. He asked us each day what the plan was and what we wanted to do. He didn't take a leadership role or seem to be excited about showing off his city.
Very unique place and worth the trip, especially the house showing how they replace the original thatch roof. The guide helped make this a good experience.
Was raining the day we went and overrun with tourists. Also the guide was disappointing and didn't provide much detail or commentary.
Very fun experience learning about the tea ceremony and dressing in kimonos.
