We just finished this tour and I wanted to chime in to say we had a GREAT time. Our guide was amazing and knowledgeable, and it was perfect for first timers who felt overwhelmed trying to plan on our own. Ages in our group ranged from 30-75, and we got along smashingly. We averaged 17k steps per day and saw so much! We always got 4-6 suggestions for meals and our free time, and Aska (the guide) would take suggestions too. So if you were into a particular food, had an allergy, wanted to hike, or wanted to see art, she could point you in the right direction. We had great camaraderie in our group and everyone was supportive of having an amazing trip. Aska provided cultural, historical, and social information in addition to getting us around towns and cities—she also scaffolded us to get around on our own.Show more

  So the baggage thing- where are we leaving it as we hike? And we carry it in public transportation or...? The tour sounds perfect except for dragging around a suitcase. So i need a better understanding of that logistic.
- G AdventuresOperator•Written August 2025
  You won't need to worry about carrying your suitcase during the hikes. Your main luggage will stay safely in your hotel room, as you'll already be checked in and returning to the same hotel after your hikes. For the hikes themselves, you'll only need to bring a small daypack with the essentials you'd like to have with you.

  We allow a maximum of 16 travellers on this trip. Our tours are based on twin share rooming. Since you have an odd number of travellers in your party, you can either share with another solo traveller of the same gender on the tour free of charge OR if you would prefer to add the 'My Own Room' single supplement, we can do so for an additional $1769 AUD. This trip starts in Kyoto and finishes in Ishigaki. You can fly into Osaka and out of Ishigaki airport.
