Perfect organisation and local support from Sunrise agents - we felt very well looked after. The tour covered all the most must-see places and the main focus on historical sites and gardens was just what we wanted. It was a slight pity only that with such a packed programme there was often too little time at many of the places. The four journeys with the Shinkansen were great experiences. Hotel quality was very high and exceeded our expectations. The visit to Hiroshima was very moving and we were really happy that it was included. All in all a wonderful experience for a first visit to Japan and this 9 day tour is highly recommended.
