Japan Highlights by Bullet Train: Tokyo, Kyoto & Osaka | 4 StarThis 6 day Japan tour was a perfect introduction to Japan for my family (2 adults, 2 children). We got a good overview of some of the major Japanese cities and are now eager to book another tour to spend more time in some of the places we loved. This trip was great for someone with limited time off from work who wants to see the highlights of Japan. The accommodations were comfortable and clean. They had good locations where dining was easy as well as getting to and from the subway. The included breakfast was a bonus to help us start off each day. Having a local guide was immensely helpful in getting us acclimated and helping us plan our days. The guide we had were extremely knowledgable on the particular city and were great with the kids. All in all, Ume Travel was easy to book with and provided a great holiday for my family.
