Wonderful jam packed tour. Key sites. From mountain to ocean to city. Wonderful guides that really cared about us making the most of the experience. Wide range of local dishes. Some very nice hotels with onsens so we were in comfort. I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to get the broadest experience. The tea ceremony and paper making were excellent too.

This was the first time that we took a group tour. Japan Uncovered met our expectations in every way with the locations and sights visited. It was convenient having all our meals included in the tour and we enjoyed the variety of meals that we received. Though we thought we might have some very early starts or late finishes to our day, we had just one earlier start of 07:30. Our guide, Kiki, was terrific. She was always ready to answer questions and helped to ensure our group enjoyed the tour and maximize how we spent our free time. The group size was 28 but it never felt large.

Amazing trip with lots to see and do. To fit so much in requires quite a lot of bus and train trips but we got to see many sides of Japan from large famous cities to smaller towns and activities. Hiroshima was very moving. Paper making was great fun too. Mount Fuji showed itself on both days we were in the area. You get time to shop in Tokyo and on the way. Go up every tall building you can. We did 2 in Osaka and the very high Skytree in Tokyo. We had a 3 night stopover in Hong Kong which was great as well. As on option if ending in Tokyo maybe stay a few more nights as there was a lot more to see than we could manage in 3 nights. The group we were with had a great time together. Highly recommended.

We attended a roadshow and committed to our first tour with Wendy Wu. Been wanting to go to Japan for a long time. The staff were friendly and the presentation was informative and interesting.

Our guide Seky was superb as was the holiday itself. The programme itself was full on however Tokyo was perhaps the most disappointing element. Hotels all good but there was few places to socialise after dinner with a bar/lounge area.

Tricky start when trying to organise flights, and never really resolved satisfactorily. The content was comprehensive, however, the overall walking pace was just too fast. The physical rating was one, indicating long periods of being on your feet, which isn’t a problem, but the speed to keep to the schedule was too much. The tour guide was exceptional, informative and with a great sense of humour.

This is the second time we have travelled with Wendy Wu Tours and cannot fault them in any way whatsoever and will definitely be travelling with them again in the future. The tour was extremely well organised from start to finish and our guide was with us all the way and really helped to make the holiday perfect. I had a dietary requirement and I was catered for on every occasion above and beyond. The tour takes in all the essence of Japan, its lifestyle and culture. Absolutely perfect in every way.

The trip was good and the guide very experienced and knowledgeble. However the group was too large 27 in total. The problem with a group this large contributed to all the meals being served eithe luke warm or cold. The explanation was they had to cater for a very large group.

The trip to Hong Kong was disappointing with the inexperience of the guide. On the first organised trip we were obliged to move on very quickly, not being able to look around as another group, who had allegedly booked had arrived. I did question the fact we were on a paid organised trip and she should not have allowed this to happen. It was really not acceptable.

Very well organised. Our guide was exceptional. Hotels were very good.
Its a full-on tour though, early starts and some time on the coach, so would recommend some rest time added in to future tours.
Food was excellent. I would make one more recommendation - on occasion its better to have a simple lunch box provided in the daytime to avoid additional coach journeys to a lunch time venue away from the days attraction.
Overall though - a fantastic holiday full of experiences.
