Japan 13 day budget tour Had a really great time on this trip it was my first time using a travel group to visit a country, Ricardo and Cryss were fabulous guides with a lot of knowledge and recommendations on where to go during free time! They were great at navigating the group from A to B. Some of the meet up times do start early (as a heads up)but i felt this was essential to make sure time was used efficiently and more areas were covered during the group activity times. You get to see lots of different areas on the tour which gives you a great taster in every location. The hostels included are very clean with great showers/facilities but beds not that comfy (flat mattresses are standard in japan so pack a travel single mattress topper if this would be an issue for you! )The group i travelled with were a lovely bunch of people even a whats app group is created prior to the trip starting which is a great ice breaker! Would recommend this trip for anyone wanting to get the most out of Japan on a smaller budget!
