My son and I had an incredible experience in Japan, enjoying a wonderful mix of history, culture and food! From start to finish, the service from Ben was excellent -- well planned, clear, insightful responsive. We stayed in great places and were at ease as we traveled to four cities in seven days, never once concerned about our safety or our next step. Our local guides, Peter and Ursula were delightful. Their English was great, and we really enjoyed all of time with them. For a first time visit to Japan, I really can't imagine a better way to see and enjoy Japan. Well done!

Terrific location for enjoying a very accessible Tokyo neighborhood. Very nice hotel. Great breakfast each morning to start the day.

Daiwa Roynet Hotel Kyoto ekimae PREMIER
Kyoto

Incredibly convenient location right between the train station and an incredible temple. Ample food options within a short walk. Small lobby, not-great restaurant, no workout facility -- you are basically in your room or outside in the city. Not a problem for us, but worth realizing if you are expecting any of those amenities.
