Japan Journeys - Experts in Japan Holidays and Tours

Thanks to all at Japan Journeys for organising our holiday, it all went very smoothly. Only been back a week but we miss Japan already. Tokyo was like 10 cities stacked on top of each other, and the temple gardens of Kyoto were perfection. Cheers!

We had a wonderful trip, thank you so much. Very well organised! Your meet and greet person at the airport was very helpful and we think that we would have struggled without him. We particularly enjoyed the resort in Hakone, the shopping in the Harajaku area (Tokyo), the guided tour in Kyoto. You over exceeded our expectations with the dinner you arranged for us in Kyoto: interesting combination of flavours, amazing taste. We loved the culture and gastronomy. The Japanese are very welcoming people. All in all Great experience! Again thank you for making our honeymoon unique.

Having always wanted to see Japan but being rather nervous about it and not knowing where to start, I contacted Japan Journeys in 2016 to help plan a trip for my son and I.

We have now been twice to Japan, the first time to Tokyo, Hiroshima, Miyajima and Kyoto and the second to Hokkaido.

The Japan Journeys team were extremely helpful with their advice, put together itineraries, made suggestions and basically helped me gain confidence that such a trip with a 12 year old in tow was nothing to worry about. They took the hassle out of booking the various accommodations and each one that they booked for us – from city hotels to traditional Ryokan – were of good quality.

I’d recommend Japan Journeys to anyone thinking about travelling to Japan, either as part of a group tour or as an independent traveller. They clearly have a wealth of valuable experience and most importantly, have a real passion for what they do.

Should I be lucky enough to visit Japan again, I’ll no doubt be in touch with  Japan Journeys to help plan my trip.

I had a fantastic time in Japan. My first time in Tokyo was amazing yet overwhelming – thankfully Louisa was an excellent tour guide and I saw far more of the city than I could have managed alone. I also gained useful experience of the public transport system.

The tour became increasingly independent as it unfolded which fitted my increasing confidence with getting around. In the last 3 days I enjoyed full freedom around Kyoto, Shiga and Osaka in a way I didn’t think possible on the first day.

I managed to see everything I wanted to and much more over a 12-nights trip which was so packed that it felt like much longer!

Just back from fantastic tour based in Tokyo and Kyoto. Tour very well organised and led by David who was very knowledgable and helpful. This was my first trip on my own but I felt welcomed in the group and really had a great time.

Just came back from the Anime/manga tour 2015, which was our honeymoon ???? I could not have asked for a better holiday! I could not fault anything! David was fantastic, even organising extra visits/ dinners in the evening, so we were never short of things to do. The hotels were brilliant, aswell as all the day trips, and the airlines. I did everything I wanted to do and more. Even our second extension week was amazing ( which was unguided). We were given recommendations of what to do and were explained to thoroughly how to get around. I will definitely be recommending japan journeys to everyone I know and will be using them in the future!

The range of craft trips were ideal for my interests and I particularly liked the hands on elements when I could try the skills.
