George Russell, Southport, Connecticut

We very much enjoyed our trip. Narumi was truly unflappable. She did an excellent job managing our group. The highlights for the kids were the digital museum and Nara. Those were probably my top two sites as well. The screens at Nijo Castle were also a highlight. The Palace Hotel was exceptional. The rooms were […]

The trip was fantastic. My daughters and I had a great time. The meals and accommodations were all 1st class. And our guide and the drivers all did a superb job in making our trip very comfortable and hassle-free. So many great experiences and so much fun. I was very impressed with Tokyo – how […]

We read the fabulous reviews Scott received and wondered whether we would have the same experience. The short answer is an unequivocal “yes.” This experience has to be rated at or close to the top of our “trips of a lifetime.” Scott listened to our interests and the items we wished to downplay or avoid. […]

My dad and I traveled on a trip of a lifetime throughout Japan in the summer of 2023. Scott’s guidance and expertise helped us plan a trip where every detail was accounted for. While in Japan, our two guides were superb; they were friendly, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to accommodate our last-minute requests […]

We enjoyed our trip so much, and we have recommended JapanQuest Journeys to a number of friends who want to travel to Japan. Alas, ridiculously high-priced airfares may have delayed a number of those planned trips, but I hope that when they do get to visit Japan, they work with you for the planning.

We wanted to tell you how great our trip was. It truly could not have gone better and often exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed so many facets of the trip that it would be impossible to list them all. However, the best part was the people we had the opportunity to interact with.  First and […]

We had a wonderful time. All of the private experiences were fantastic; they made our trip.  You and your team made everything easy so we could “be on vacation.” The logistics were flawless. One of the biggest stressors of traveling in a foreign country is the transfers, and JQJ made this stress free with someone […]

Steve K., Seattle, Washington

The trip exceeded our expectations, which were already heightened based on everything we had heard about Japan. We were awed by so much of what we saw and experienced. Yes, parts of the country are physically beautiful, but we were even more impressed by the Japanese people and culture – the cleanliness, efficiency, sophistication, and […]

Rose Horn, New York, New York

I recently returned from an extraordinary trip to Japan planned by the extraordinary Scott. I traveled with a dear friend. We were meant to go two years ago, but like everyone else, our trip was delayed until May. Planning a trip to Japan can be overwhelming. As I delved into my research, there were so […]
