InsideJapan Tours Recensioni 1.202

There are a range of tours and our guide was well informed, fun and very caring in his response to the different needs of his group. We had a wonderful time on the tour and in a further two weeks self guided where we were also well supported by the company with portable wifi and all our travel tickets and related timetables provided. We had to do most of the planning for the self-guided part of our tour to Kyushu ourselves as the itinerary originally suggested by the UK office would have involved us in too much travel time but if you are going to veer off the beaten track then you expect to have to do your own research. The hotels we picked ourselves and those selected by Inside Japan for the tours were all excellent and good value.

Inside Japan helped us every step of the way and customised an amazing trip. It was so reassuring to have the in-country support and the insider days were the best!

Probably tried to see too many places in too little time x but thanks our fault as much as it yours. Everything else was great!

Our experience of Inside Japan was great from start to finish. They put together a great trip to Honshu based on the requirements of the four of us. We all enjoyed the culture, the food, the built and natural landscapes, the travel and the people, especially the guides Inside Japan had selected. A thoroughly amazing 3 weeks!

My agent, Steph, was amazing and instrumental in planning both of my Japan trips in 2025.
My first trip with my mum was an unforgettable experience for both of us and Steph made sure to tick all the boxes and made our trip smooth and easy to navigate.

Well organised. Train tickets all sorted in advance which made travel easy.
It would have been helpful to have more information on the luggage forwarding service from each hotel. Overall an excellent experience

We got expert individual advice putting our itinerary together. IJ did all the accommodation and travel booking, which was quite complex and did an excellent job of it. The support whilst in Japan was superb. The just know Japan inside out

Everything was good- the choice of tours, the transportation, the food at every stop. We felt like we really saw Japan by getting involved. There were a few workshops plus meeting with a maiko. The tour guide Ed was wonderful. So all in all a great trip. Will definitely go with them again.

the bespoke tour was very well organised, with every element covered in terms of travel arrangements with everything journey time and pick ups etc so clear.
The hotels and experience hotels were all of a great standard. The personal guides in Tokyo and Kyoto made such a difference to our understanding as well as visually seeing. There was the right balance between organised guides and our own time to explore. highly recommend Inside Japan

Was a wonderful experience with accomodation options that helped our family appreciate local culture. Trip to a baseball game was something our kids will always remember. The local experience and ability to support in country was also invaluable.

great trip thanks to the fantastic organisation and help from Emma and the team both before and during our trip. I wouldn't use anyone else when arranging a trip to Japan. From the very first contact they were first class and came up with some fantastic ideas to make our trip truly memorable.

Erin our contact was fabulous and every bit of the trip was so well put together. We had an absolutely fabulous time

I stumbled across the website at an initial search and contacted the company! Sarah answered my queries and helped me think about what I really wanted out of the vacation patiently and still with real experience and enthusiasm.

In the end I did decide to go ahead with IJT and their “ Hidden Japan Tour”. I booked the tour and also got support with travel and accommodation booking post the tour ending as I stayed an extra week ish in Japan exploring on my own.

On to the tour itself my tour guide Sophia Drake was brilliant, flexible and super helpful! I did a few things independently in my free time during the tour but Sophia had me prepped for solo travel confidently outside of the tour. Sophia was knowledgeable and I loved the weaving story telling that weaved in and out the tour dependent on what we visited.

Tour itself “ Hidden Japan” is truly an experience I would not have planned but so grateful that I have been able to do it. From the traditional awa odori dance to the kendo experience in Jorge ( I was not expecting it)! Everything was organised brilliantly and tour guides organised for the places we visited were amazing! If u think this tour is worth trying but are wavering I would say just go for it!

The company truly believes in supporting the local community and it showed! I can say much more but will end here.. Amazing people and amazing company!

This was a very well organised trip. We received all the information we needed and more. All the tickets were there and our guides were all wonderful. Our accommodation was terrific, although the Green Hotel in Takayama would have been better if we'd had a regular room with a western bed. But that's small!. The luggage travel on was really good and overall we had a fantastic trip.

The details! Everything was perfect!

I worked with Alyssa and she was excellent. She had great recommendations, and was able to customize my trip to be exactly what I wanted. Thank you!

I cannot rate Inside Japan highly enough. The trip was amazing, so many unforgettable experiences. Accommodation good and all in great locations. The Inside Japan team listened to our requirements and adapted our tours, making it a brilliant experience. The guides were informative, friendly, personable and fun!

Excellent organisation and quality service. Professional and caring guides with amazing knowledge.

I think the tour was very expensive for what we experienced. I had questionedabout seeing Hiroshima, I was told oh no problem you’ll be able to get a tour to go there. Well as it turned out, the timeframe was ridiculous. Very disappointed. A lot of wasted time.

Really efficient, helpful information, gave us the freedom to explore on our own but without the stress of having to organise everything.
