After the World Scout Jamboree at Kirara-Hama (next to Ajisu, Yamaguchi) I knew I just want to relax and cool down at the ocean. So I looked for a good swimming possibility close to Yamaguchi and found the island Iki on the map. I tried very hard to book an accomodation on that island by myself and didn't manage. Most homepages were in Japanese only and calling the hotels where they only speak Japanese didn't work out at all. Finally Japan Travel helped me and organized everything! From that moment on everything was just easy. The ferry was booked and I got the accomodation that was my first choice, not expensive and right next to the nicest two beaches. All transports was taken care of and Wakako-san from Travel Japan even met me at the port when I boarded the ferry to help me there. It was a service beyond imagination! On Iki island I had a great time. I rented an electrical bike to see a lot on the island and enjoyed time at the beautiful beaches. On my way back to Osaka Kansai airport I stopped for one night and one day in Kyoto to visit friends. There I stayed in the nine hours Kyoto capsule hotel, that was a fun experience.

Although the schedule was a little hectic, we greatly enjoyed our brief visit . The efficiency and comprehensiveness of the transport systems was superb. The Japanese people were friendly, polite and helpful often going out of their way to ensure we could get to where we were heading. There was an amazing range of food on offer at reasonable prices. Having expected everything to be expensive, we were very pleasantly surprised at how cheap it was to eat, travel and visit the various cultural sights. Just one tip- if you don't like crowds, queues or steps don't go into the Keep at Himejii castle!
If anyone is thinking of visiting Japan we would highly recommend you book through the Japan Travel Centre who could not have done more to ensure we had the best possible experience of their brilliant country . Our contact was helpful, informative and booked a variety of really good, well located hotels. Our only disappointment was that we couldn't stay longer

Fantastic holiday, one of the best. Brilliant job by Japan Travel Centre. Everything was organised perfectly and all went to plan. We were very grateful for the inside knowledge on where to stay and go. The rail passes were good value for money and very efficient. Thank you for organising a brilliant holiday.

Excellent help and advice with arrangements and bookings of jetfoil, hotels, ryokan and bus to Sado island Earth Festival - which was really fantastic.

Eating out was much cheaper than we had anticipated, the trains were punctual, the people so so helpful, polite and lovely.

Would have loved to stay longer and explore more.

We are a family of 5- two adults and 3 kids - 16,14,11- a fantastic and memorable experience for the whole family and something for everyone.

I travelled with my 18 year son who has always had an interest in Asia and Japan in particular. We stayed in Kyoto, Kinosaki. Miyajima Island, Hiroshima and Tokyo. We also visited Nara and Himeji as well as climbing Mount Fuji to watch surmise. The whole trip was a fantastic experience but the highlights would be climbing Mt Fuji and going up the Skytree inTokyo. Tokyo is huge and could be a bewildering place to first experience Japan. Starting your trip in somewhere smaller such as Kyoto gives a chance to get used to things like the subway without being overwhelmed. Wandering around the back streets in Kyoto or Hiroshima is great fun, discovering tiny restaurants and bars with no real risk of getting lost. We felt ready when we finally arrived in the big one at the end of our trip. The JR pass is a great value way to travel and I would recommend prebooking seats (no extra cost) for any long distance trips. If you are prepared to get up early you can be very ambitious with how far you can travel for a day trip if your on the bullet train.

It was my first visit to Japan. I found it a great experience and cannot wait to return. Despite the language barrier it was surprisingly easy to get about helped by the fact that the vast majority of locals were extremely patient and willing to help.

The holiday was excellent. It was arranged extremely well and all ran smoothly. We thoroughly enjoyed the cities we visited and were particularly impressed with the hospitality and civility of the Japanese. The train travel was great and the service was extremely efficient. I would strongly recommend the company and would definitely travel with you again.

First class and personal service from all the staff at Japan Travel Centre, both prior to the trip and whilst travelling around Japan. Courteous, efficient and knowledgeable. Would recommend the service to anyone and everyone travelling to Japan.

I went to Japan to study and practice the language and immerse myself in the culture but it is the people, above all, who make Japan a very special place. I feel very grateful for your help, which was done with heart and made possible my wonderful stay in Japan. Everything went well and the accommodation was convenient and adequate, given that it was a budget choice. The hotels near the airport made life much easier I will return there as often as I can. Unfortunately, my ignorance of technology makes it impossible to share my photos of, for instance, the archery on horseback contest I saw in Kyoto.

I liked Japan. Everything went smooth. Then plan stood 100%. Good guides on our tours and great assistance from the Japan Travel Centre. Hot and humid but after the trip I think it is good that we did not get any heavy rain or typhoon since our accommodation was tents. The Lunch buffet was the best food we got the whole trip. Thanks. We got the perfect Mt Fuji view but there was construction in front of the observation deck I will send to you the view. But our tour guides informed us that we were lucky to be able to see the mountain. no mist and no clouds. We got a good look on the Bus. In Iceland we are used to see mountains so we thought it is strange that we were so lucky. The Tokyo morning tour was also great. We got little taste of Tokyo. The tour guides were great. The JR passes worked fine we could use them also to get around Tokyo. We lost two passes on the way to our host one in Yamaguchi station and one on the train to Yokohama. We got both passes back to use in Tokyo. Japan is great everything we lost we got back. Even the bag that I left in Heathrow:-) We would like to thank you for the great job. From the Icelandic Scouts.
