An eye-opening glimpse into samurai culture. The Chiran Peace Museum was particularly moving. Our tour guide was polite, engaging, and answered every question. The comfort level of the coach and the manageable group size made this one of the best excursions we’ve had in Japan.

As guests from the Celebrity Millennium, we were truly impressed. Felix answered all our questions promptly before the trip, and our guide Yuki brought the samurai era to life. The bus was spacious and air-conditioned, much appreciated in the summer heat.

A beautiful cultural tour, with enough time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Thanks to Fiona's help, we also added a special request for vegetarian snacks. The van was spotless and extremely comfortable.
