    We joined Becki and Shawn on a wonderful 14 night/15 day small group (4 other guests) tour of Japan. Although we are experienced travelers and usually travel on our own, we were very glad that we joined Becki and Shawn. They did a fantastic job at every step of the process, including vetting the group members for compatibility; briefing us on Japanese culture, history and etiquette; developing an itinerary that covered Japan’s cultural and culinary highlights; booking us in beautiful accommodations; and, taking us to great restaurants. Becki and Shawn are steeped in Japanese culture and managed to provide us with multiple experiences that we simply could not have replicated on our own, including a two-hour dinner encounter with a full-fledged Geisha in Kyoto, a traditional tea ceremony and the Sumo wrestling championship in Tokyo. Beyond that, Becki and Shawn do everything possible to ensure that each of their guests has a smooth, enjoyable and meaningful trip. They shepherded us efficiently from site to site, packing in a lot of experiences, while giving us sufficient time to explore and enjoy each site. While we might have been able to tour Japan on our own, we would have had to spend twice as many days or see only half as much. And, had we done it on our own, we would have missed Becki and Shawn’s insightful commentary. Very simply, we heartily recommend Japan and More to anyone looking for a first-class, meaningful tour of Japan. Anne & Mitch

    Beautiful scenery. Totally worth a visit. Value wise, we went around and had an incredible experience even without a guide. The driver was also friendly and pretty good at driving. It was a safe trip. Totally recommended.

    Nobu was amazing, he took the time to pick us up at the port and took us to Nagoya to visit different places, after we finished he made sure we got bak on time to our cruise, it was truly an amazing experience.

    The tour was excellent. We speak only English so it was very helpful to have a guide that could talk to people in Japanese and translate. My son and I learned a lot and loved the experience.

    I enjoyed learning the history of Ise Jingu. It made the tour meaningful. My tour guide was knowledgeable and showed me all the things I wanted to see.

    A great way to spend the day! Visiting Nagoya Castle and the art museum was amazing, and our guide and driver were very helpful. The hotel pick-up made everything easy

    We had a great time and enjoyed both the Nagoya Castle and Hommaru Palace, as well as the Toyota museum visit, immensely. Very impressive and very interesting ! Yuko is a fantastic guide and made a big difference: very knowledgeable and attentive - and also very proficient in English and super organized - we had a very safe and smooth experience.

    Our 2.5 hour tour with Hiro was informative. We got to explore places we would normally have walked past and try treats (savoury and sweet).
