DON'T BOOK Booked a Northern Japan Luxury 4 star Small group tour with Luxury Escapes, only to find out on departure this tour had been subcontracted to Tomato Tours. On arrival we found out we were the only 2 people, Hotels changed to 3 star at best, 'guides' so called, have never been to the locations we visited dont know anything about Japan with very poor Japanese and English. Travelling by rented taxi to and from locations. Contact with Luxury Escapes when we call is very simpathic, but they don't call us back. NB: AUSTRALIANS NOT BOOK THIS TOUR WE FEEL ABANDED
