“Eric was a very engaging tour director and did a wonderful job showing us highlights of Japan. Would have been better if he had been secured for this tour earlier to allow his preparation and input to the agenda, as we understand he was a last minute replacement. Reasonable pricing for the range of services, transportation and accommodations.”

“The trip to Japan had many interesting activities included with the tour. The paper making, Japanese Tea Party, Sushi preparing of food, the design making of chop sticks, the tour guide constantly helping group organizing whatever we needed. Yuki Honda is the best guide that I have had from Smartours. A great asset to you. We enjoyed the different choices of food. We learned the new way of paying for items through machines. The Mt Fuji was not visible the day we visited the area due to fog. The gondola was not working due to repairs. The Pirate ride on the boat was nice. The part the needs to be addressed is the Hiroshima Tour. The number of student in the Hiroshima Museum was terrible. We could not see anything in the museum due to excessive amount of students. Thousands of students from many schools arrived and block all the exhibits. Group could not see anything. Waste of time. The Shrine was a shrine. The deer roaming the area was nice. Very disappoint with the tour to Hiroshima. Not worth the time going and returning. This was a Sunrise tour.”

“Japan is an amazing modern, clean and well organized country with a glorious tradition to the past. The Temples, shrines and Samurai era buildings are a treasure to behold. We had an "Iciban" (#1) tour guide who went over and above the call of duty to guide us. I did have some problems with the food and some of the activities, but all in all it was a great experience.”

“My first favorite tour was Japan. I was very glad that the departure was from Lax! Perfect spring weather and full of cherry blossoms. The tour started on April 10 to 22-2017. Everything was perfect about the tour. Hero was very informative and kind and funny. The choice of hotels was very good too. Thanks smartour for excellent tour and Convenient Lax departure!”
