    A great plan Excellent on-site guidance phoebe did an excellent job in arranging the itinerary for our first trip to Japan. We have a long list of specific locations we hope to see, and phoebe also helped us offer suggestions for other attractions and experiences. We are not travelers on a "regular itinerary" (the way others do it). Jeremy is our ground coordinator in Japan this time. He is young, energetic and knowledgeable. Our 18-year-old son likes communicating with him and visiting the scenic spots that young people like. If you plan to travel to Japan, I will definitely recommend phoebe and Jeremy. The only thing that confuses us is about the experience of staying in a Japanese Ryokan. We originally thought it would be like what we saw in the movie - a small single-story hut with paper walls and bamboo floors, surrounded by a beautiful garden. But in the end, we stayed in a multi-storey high-rise building with traditional hardwood doors. Coming out of the corridor was like staying in a Western-style hotel. Once inside, there were some sliding doors and we slept on the floor. Apart from that misunderstanding, we had a wonderful two weeks and we will use UME Travel again without hesitation.

    Possibly the best custom tour operators ever. Initially I was very skeptical about booking but after a lot of research I finally did contact UME travels and got a quick response from phoebe. Many changes followed (all of which phoebe graciously entertained without ever making it sound like I was bothering her), we finalized our 7 Days Customized Tokyo and Kansai Classic Tour. From start to finish phoebe was prompt, courteous and airways reachable. We enjoyed our trip to Japan very much. I will certainly recommend UME Travels and phoebe in particular anytime.

    We were really happy with our tour to Japan, it was booked by phoebe I sent a list of things I wanted to do & her was able to arrange everything into the week with the tour & make other suggestions of things to do when I said we weren't so interested in doing food based tours we was able to make other great options & everything was booked well. In Tokyo our guide was Tina she was so friendly, enthusiastic and informative she really knew a lot about Japanese history. She was very good at telling us stories from Japanese mythology and didn't mind that we spent ages up Mt Fuji as the clouds were clearing. In Kyoto & Osaka our guide was Karen she really good she knew when was the best time to visit different places so we were there when it was not so busy, which is hard during Cherry Blossom season, she also knew it was best to get deer crackers before lunch because they all sell out after it at Nara. She also knew the best time and place to go in Kyoto & we managed to see Geisha. She was also brilliant on our days in public transport & managed to get me a seat on every bus & train journey which is amazing with how busy some of the buses were in the morning & evenings. On the days when we were with drivers they were always very polite.
