1. How would you describe your overall level of satisfaction with us as your tour operator?
We worked up a tailored itinerary which involved a lot of work to get it exactly as we wanted, and with valuable insight from Tristan. The final itinerary was very detailed and helped up feel confident in embarking on our own with a lot of complicated train/bus travel. It was helpful to have an active WhatsApp chat when in Japan, to help with queries we had over ticketing and when one of our cases got lost in transit between hotels! Also liked the effort made for a 'Happy Birthday' present in our hotel in Hiroshima. Thank you!

5. Please give us your comments on the transport included in your package.
Train and buses worked really well. We did have to tweak a few times though and think just need to visualise how long people need in places with going 'via' places en route eg Kamikochi

6. Please comment on any professional guiding included in your package?
The Tokyo Guide we thought was OK - but didn't really take us off the beaten track. Takayama guide wsa excellent - great English and really understood our brief - made effort to show it things that were a bit different including the woodturner. Kanazawa - again OK day - but not wowed by her in terms of things we coud do - I had wanted to do some Art things - but we'd needed to pre-book visiting a ceramic place and art museum was closed when we go there - and only got to gold leaf factory 5 minutes before it close. Kyoto Guide - excellent again - in touch beforehand to arrange early meet up - and showed us things off the beaten track too.
