Itinerary
We covered a lot of ground.....perhaps might have enjoyed another day in Tokyo. I was really diisappointed we had to rush through Hiroshima. We used the museum English audio guide and simply didn\'t have enough time. We could have used 1 1/2 hours minimum, even 2 hours. I know this is a difficult balance (some in our group could only handle 1/2 hour) Perhaps a long option and a short option coild be offered, with a pre-determined meeting place. We certainly didn\'t need the coffee break before entering the museum, as we had only traveled to the museum directly from our hotel. Otherwise, things were great.
Lodging
Food
Amazing! Plentiful! Eye-opening. Especially the large \"banquets\" at the hotel near Miyajima.
Guides
Very good. I would encourage the guide we had in Hiroshima to use the audio headsets/receivers though. We were able to hear, but it is much easier with them and means the guide doesn\'t gave to repeat things as much.
Pre-Tour Handbook
Tour Organization
What a great job your staff did organizing all those tickets!
Tour Transportation
Fantastic. Guides were excellent getting us thru train stations which otherwise would have been really difficult. Really enjoyed the variety.
