What our customers say...

Fantastic trip, really enjoyed every part of it, was also really useful having a lady meet us at the airport and helping us book trains/collect our JR passes. Hotels were great too.

Only thing we would change – we wish we had two nights in Miyajima. We really wanted to explore but didn’t feel that one day was enough.

Karen D.(UK), Independent Traveller 2018

This was a great holiday. Helpful and knowledgeable guide, excellent itinerary, good travel arrangements and good hotels. Also lots of material shopping. What more could a quilter want? Thoroughly recommended.

Janet ThomasJapan Quilt Tour

We have been on several tours with JJ (Japan Journeys) and for us is the first & only agency we consider when planning our next venture to Japan. First, they provide excellent direction. No grey areas about who or where to meet. All travel & hotel arrangements within Japan are meticulously set and secure. We love the architecture, arts, and bonsai gardens. Bonsai is Richard’s interest so we have attended several major bonsai shows in Japan with JJ. This has led us to several bonsai nurseries and also to several pottery kilns where authentic bonsai pots are made. Our last trip was based more on business as these were the items we were primarily interested in. Japan Journeys made this trip just perfect for us and we really enjoyed every moment as well as re-connecting with many of the people we’ve met before. Our thanks to all of the staff at JJ for great trips to Japan!

Betty & Richard Geisreiter

An amazing time spent in Tokyo, Kyoto and Hiroshima/Miyajima. The trip was very well organised by David and Natsumi and the information provided was very easy to understand and informative. The hotels were all excellent and incredibly easy to find. The ryokan on Miyajima was a highlight with very friendly, welcoming staff who all spoke excellent English. Too many highlights to list in this fantastic country but certainly Mt Fuji, the temples of Kyoto, Octopus on a stick and Hiroshima were just a few of thousands. As a lone traveler I never felt lonely and always knew I had the back up of an excellent company behind me should I need it. Highly recommended.
