Published on Feb, 2025

Overall just such a wonderful tour. Simon (the tour guide), was such a lovely person to get to speak to on the experience of Japan. The brewery was really interesting, with such a beautiful picturesque environment to match. Fabulous sakes, the lunch included was so delicious too! The train ride back to Tokyo was so much fun and went by incredibly fast as we all just chatted. Best tour yet!
