The history and artistry and tradition we experienced really brought our visit to Japan alive ! Especially the intricate carvings in the shrine buildings

Well where do I start. I can’t exactly call it a tour as we really only got a driver. No comments as to what we were seeing. He was arrogant, asked to stop at service stations on the way there and back so he could get a caffeine fix!! He was out the night before and was called last minute to do our tour. What made us worry more was the speed the car was going…up to 140 he was saying in Japan there was a leeway and it was ok even if the speed limit was 80. When we got back to the hotel and mentioned it to the manager…this was not the case. Then as we were nearly back to the hotel, at a traffic light, the driver floored it and had to avoid a car pulling out…wasn’t his fault however if he hadn’t been going so fast he would have avoided it…then the cars tires were so bald…not exactly a good advertisement for the tour. Out of all tours in Japan we did, this was our most disappointing.

Well worth it for this not to be missed experience! Traveled with my sister and our mother. Our guide, Newton, was well versed on the history and was very accommodating to ensure our elderly mother had minimal walking and steps on the tour. He was knowledgeable of the Japanese culture today and shared it as well as tips for foreigners! Our mom is a Japanese native, but it has been some time since her last visit. He spoke English for us and would speak Japanese with our mom 😀. Nice touch.

Pros: car was great and spacious, and the driver was wonderful and accommodating as a person
Cons: spending that much time, going to a historical place far away from the city without any historical context, or Guide was disappointing
The listing is misleading because with an English-speaking driver, we were expecting to have a guided tour, but every location the driver just wanted to stay at the car, and not really coming to the attractions of us are give us any explanation of the sites as he said that his job is primarily just to drive the guests from site to site.
Also, Shinkyo bridge is listed as one of the attractions but it is closed and no one can come and go over the bridge or climb it. In fact, you can’t even really stop there.

We had a driver who accommodated our wishes & the mobility limitations of one of the members of our party. Driver had little knowledge of the place he took us.

Our tour guide was the best we have ever had anywhere. He was very nice, well informed of the history and had a very good knowledge of the whole country. Also he is very good in communication. I strongly recommend eveyone

We would like to inform you of our great disappointment from the tour to Nikko in reference above, we purchased from you.
The day started with more than half an hour delay of the driver. (Stuck in traffic..??!!) But that was the least of the matter. Driver in general was so sweet and really tried hard, but he was obviously not capable of conducting such a day tour.
He knows absulutly nothing about the area or it’s attractions (even said it himself..) nor he knew what was the package deal promised. So hard as he tried, and he did, we did not get the expected value for our money.
Therefore unfortunately most of the time was spent on googling and wandering about, making U turns again and again. We finished the day not seeing half of what we expected or planned and of what Nikko has to offer.
You published this private tour as a GUIDED tour but as much as our driver tried, he was just not suitable for the job and we didn’t get what we paid for.
It’s important for us to emphasize that we do not blame the driver for this. The responsibility is solely on you for publishing a guided tour and then not assigning a capable guide for the tour.
Tour was one big disappointment.

It was our first time to Japan and we took a tour to Nikko. Tour was well planned and executed. Our driver/guide was well aware of the route and very knowledgeable about the history of the area. We had lunch at Maple restaurant food was delicious and the restaurant was cozy. The tour required a lot of walking We saw Tosho-gu, stopped at Shinkyo Bridge, Tamozawa Imperial villa memorial park, Kegon waterfalls, Lake Chuzenji. It was a very interesting and excellent tour experience. We really enjoyed the mixture of religious & historical places. If you want to see old and new Japan, take a Tokyo tour and then Nikko tour. If you are in Japan, don't miss this amazing opportunity.
