She easily accommodated dietary restrictions in our group, and every stop was expertly curated and ready to serve the tour. We met other travelers from the US in our group, and tried food items we would not have sought out on our own. We are still talking about the macrons!”

One of the best tours we've had during our time in Japan!”
