I took this 7 nights Japan tour by myself and absolutely loved it. The hotels were all above 3 stars. They were cleaner and prettier than holiday inn you find in America. Our tour guide Cindy provided a fabulous job. Note that tour guide in Japan DON’T handle your luggage for you! Be prepared. I also paid extra 400 for the round-trip direct flights. It saved me a few hours each way and I didn’t need to change my plane. Ask your travel agent if that’s available, it was a quite nice experience.
