    The country was beautiful, so clean, and the people were all friendly - willing to help with anything. Transportation was very efficient on the trains. Seeing Mt Fuji and making sushi rolls was really fun!

    So many aspects of the trip were wonderful! Our guide, Hiro, was absolutely terrific. He was very caring, responsive and responsible! He brought a personal touch that truly enhanced our visit! We loved our time in Kyoto and environs: a perfect first home base :). We appreciated the overall ease A&R provided in getting to and from locations. Highlights included lunch and conversation with the Geisha and Maiko, the 1001 statues of Kannon, Hiroshima, the Todai-ju Temple, Pottery Studio, Samurai residence and Kenrokuen Garden, to name a few. The time we spent at the Gassho house was so very interesting - enjoyed exploring it! Tokyo was simply amazing! Mt. Fuji was, too, although it was a long, traffic-filled trip there and back. We understand there was so much to do and see.

Takayama's Seasonal Festivals  

With colorful centuries-old traditions, Takayama’s Spring + Fall Festivals are highlighted by a spectacular parade of giant floats, many of them dating to the 17th century with remarkable, ingeniously-animated moving parts. Go in Spring and delight in the island’s famed Cherry Blossoms or join us in the fall for the brilliant autumn foliage – what the Japanese call Momiji.
