Really great itinerary
It would have been great if we had received some information about the Emperor's Birthday and the public holiday over new year - partly to understand more about the background, and partly to tailor our travel.
Lodging
Well chosen hotels
Would have rated this 5 if there hadn't been a problem with the rooms in Tokyo when we arrived - we were not happy to have been split up as a family when the itinerary stated we were in the same tower.
Food
Food was good - highlights were definitely away from the big cities - as well as lunch on our guided tour of Tokyo.
Guides
Our greeter at Narita and our guide in Tokyo were both excellent.
Pre-Tour Handbook
Overall excellent - the only areas we would improve were -
- hotel in Tokyo (detailed above)
- documentation to reflect public holidays (detailed above)
- reservations for transport over a busy period meant we had to get a taxi to Kanazawa - although thanks for organising this
