As a former Fortune 50 corporate event planner, I have always planned our own personal trips but felt like Japan was a country we needed assistance in navigating. After reviewing the options that were available for small group tours, we decided to use Japan and More. A few of the deciding factors in choosing Japan and More were this was an immersive program into the Japanese culture and history not just a sightseeing tour, Becki's fluency in English and Japanese, and ample free time with available resources to make exploring fun and stress free.
While we were in Japan, the level of detail that went into each day and the personal touches Becki and Shawn provided enabled us to have a fantastic time. It would be impossible to cover all of the positive experiences we had with Becki and Shawn. We would highly recommend Japan and More for an awesome small group experience.

Japan is an amazing but overwhelming place to visit. A small group tour makes it much more manageable. We enjoyed visiting some of the most well known sights; temples, gardens and shrines, in Tokyo, Nikko, Hiroshima and Kyoto. Our stay at a ryokan, on a lake, near Mt Fuji, was unique. Using the rooftop foot bath while viewing the mountain emerging from behind the clouds was exciting. Our evening with a geisha trainee was interesting and entertaining. She was very poised and had a sweet personality.
Staying in one hotel for 2-3 nights at a time simplified the hassles of repacking etc. Train travel to surrounding cities worked very well. We enjoyed the variety of Japanese food: tofu, wagyu beef, sushi and treats…but there was ample opportunity to get some Italian or French food if desired.
We opted for a 6 day post-tour extension.Becki and Shawn provided us with an inexpensive but detailed consultation. We are enjoying these last few days in Japan on our own, relaxing and going at a slower pace. They helped us purchase our train tickets and we rehearsed our path from the bullet train to the local train so we won’t get lost on our way to the airport.
All in all it was the trip we hoped it would be. They helped me find a few treasures to take home: knife from a Samurai sword maker’s store, netsuke and lacquer from reputable shops…
A small group of 8-10 really allowed us to tailor this trip to our interests!

The trip with Japan and More was simply outstanding in every way. First, it was great traveling in a small group. Second, Becky and Shawn tailor the itinerary to fit the interests of the group while insuring that we visit the significant sites. Most importantly, they educate us on the people and culture of Japan - coupled with including intimate, personal events that bring out aspects of this wonderful culture. For example, Becky and Shawn included an overnight at a Ryokan, a tea ceremony, a Geisha dinner and a hands-on sushi making class….to name a few. And best of all is the food in Japan. Our group was a “foodie” group and were treated every day with different and marvelous meals. I highly recommend Japan and More without reservation.

We joined Becki and Shawn on a wonderful 14 night/15 day small group (4 other guests) tour of Japan. Although we are experienced travelers and usually travel on our own, we were very glad that we joined Becki and Shawn. They did a fantastic job at every step of the process, including vetting the group members for compatibility; briefing us on Japanese culture, history and etiquette; developing an itinerary that covered Japan’s cultural and culinary highlights; booking us in beautiful accommodations; and, taking us to great restaurants. Becki and Shawn are steeped in Japanese culture and managed to provide us with multiple experiences that we simply could not have replicated on our own, including a two-hour dinner encounter with a full-fledged Geisha in Kyoto, a traditional tea ceremony and the Sumo wrestling championship in Tokyo. Beyond that, Becki and Shawn do everything possible to ensure that each of their guests has a smooth, enjoyable and meaningful trip. They shepherded us efficiently from site to site, packing in a lot of experiences, while giving us sufficient time to explore and enjoy each site. While we might have been able to tour Japan on our own, we would have had to spend twice as many days or see only half as much. And, had we done it on our own, we would have missed Becki and Shawn’s insightful commentary. Very simply, we heartily recommend Japan and More to anyone looking for a first-class, meaningful tour of Japan. Anne & Mitch

Our trip to Japan was simply the best! We thought we would miss the chance to see Japan. We didn’t think we could travel independently, but were tired of big-group tour-bus travel. Japan and More’s 15 day Discover Japan Tour was made for travelers like us. We got the benefit of Becki and Shawn’s planning and guidance with no worries, and a size limit of 8 people. They tailored the activities to our interests. We had a lot of fun on the trip and enjoyed everyone’s company. Becki and Shawn explained the history of the Buddhist Temples, Shinto Shrines and other World Heritage Sites and places we visited. We were impressed with the elaborate included-dinners that were nothing like we had experienced on a tour before. We especially liked the private dinner with a Geisha, the Kaiseki dinner at the Ryokan, the Yakiniku Farewell Dinner, the Korakuen Garden and Okayama Castle, Hiroshima and the tea ceremony. Our hotels were excellent. We would highly recommend Japan and More.

The 15 day tour was a wonderful experience, Becki and Shawn were the perfect guides that obviously love everything about Japan. With the years of experience they have, the tour was perfectly tuned for the group.
The information they provide through their website helped us prepare for the trip, everything from what to take, guide to food, language, culture and more.
Every one of the 15 days was memorable, Becki and Shawn took care of everything so that we could enjoy the experience, the people, the culture and travelling with a small group was perfect. We were with a group but Becki and Shawn always had time in the itinerary for us to wander on our own if we wanted to, the blend of group activity and time for us to explore on our own was just right.
As we visited each site Becki and Shawn educated us but did not overload us, we often peppered them with questions which they were more than happy to answer and equipped to do so.
We were excited to try the Japanese cuisine and boy did we try it, Becki and Shawn knew the local specialties and had lists of restaurants to try. We had several set dinners and a cooking class, if you love food then you're in for a treat!
Thank you Shawn and Becki for the experience and education, we had such a wonderful time. We had great travel companions, we had allot of fun and will forever love Japan.
If you are looking to travel to Japan, I would recommend Japan and more every time.

Our 15-day tour with Japan and More was worth every penny. Becki and Shawn clearly love Japan, its people and its culture, and are passionate about sharing that love with others. The pre-trip consultation and the many educational videos available on the website helped us know exactly what to expect.
The small-group experience was absolutely perfect. We had great travel partners, and Becki and Shawn were always upbeat, friendly and fun. They took care of all hotel reservations and transportation arrangements. This allowed us to relax, enjoy, and simply soak in all that Japan has to offer. They were able to educate us about the significance of each of the sites we visited, and answer our questions, but we never felt overloaded with information.
We truly appreciated their efforts to educate us about the people of Japan and its cultural traditions, the aim being that we would make a good impression as visitors to this beautiful country. We loved the cooking class, and the opportunity to have dinner with a local family. Although most of each day was spent with the group, there were also opportunities for us to experience Japan on our own, shopping, eating out and exploring the area.
We took so many wonderful memories home with us, and we’re so thankful to Becki and Shawn for making it all possible.

I have just returned from what is undoubtedly one of the most immersive and best travel experiences I have ever had. As a very seasoned solo traveller, I was a bit hesitant to join a tour, but thanks to a suggestion by my friends in Minnesota, I took the plunge and we booked our tour in January 2020, then Covid hit. We finally managed to do this trip in November 2023. Due to the plummeting South African rand, I initially felt that the cost was quite high.
Now I completely endorse the fact that it is the best value for money I could ever have invested in my travel experience. I arrived for the tour 4 days before the start and navigated myself around Tokyo transport and food. It was overwhelming to say the least. Too many social faux pas’ and epic bathroom failures to try and explain.
Then Becki and Shawn stepped in with their meticulous planning and organizing skills. Their passion for Japan, its culture, food, people , countryside and heritage. This is not a follow the leader tour. Becki and Shawn give so much information on the social etiquettes, the transport systems, the food, religions, history and they guided each of us through this experience, to make it our own. The HOW and WHY behind so much, you just would not get as a tourist on your own. I loved the fact that if they did not have the answer to some of the obscure questions we asked, they would research and come back to you. Nothing was ever too much trouble.
I really appreciated the effort they put into getting the group fit right, ours was perfect and good friendships were made. The relaxed and informal approach, the teasing and humor created a fun experience.
The hotel accommodations chosen were perfect in terms of comfort, luxury and accessibility to the stations. The included dinners and lunches were well selected and off the beaten track, no tour group buffets!! The itinerary and sights selected were incredible. At the end of our tour we stayed on and did a few extra days, locals we interacted with could not believe how much we had seen and done in the 2 weeks.
A caution is that this tour is physical, you do need to be fit. But there can be no better way to really experience these beautiful country. I have no hesitation in recommending Becki and Shawn and any of their well thought out itineraries. If you have read this far, I am happy to answer any questions on my personal experience that I may not have covered.

Firstly, thank you for taking the plunge and trusting us with your travel experience, especially considering all the challenges with the pandemic. Your patience and flexibility did not go unnoticed, and we're thrilled that the trip surpassed your expectations.
Thank you for acknowledging our (Becki's) meticulous planning and organizational skills. We aim to create an environment where each traveler is able to make the journey their own.
We're glad we could answer your questions about Japan and its culture. We're also happy to hear that the relaxed approach to travel, along with a touch of humor, made the fun experience even more fun.
Thank you for highlighting the physical aspect of the tour, and we appreciate your caution for potential travelers. It's essential to be fit, but as you've beautifully noted, it's a fantastic way to truly experience the beauty of Japan.
Arigatou gozaimasu for being a part of our Japan and More family, and we look forward to crossing paths on another adventure!
Warmest regards,

My Wife, Kim, and I just completed the 15 Day Discover Japan November Tour and we could not have had a more enjoyable time. We consider ourselves independent travelers and really don't do tours. I was initially a little hesitant to book with a group that I didn't know, but was so glad that we did. We had a diverse group of individuals hailing from Massachusetts, Minnesota, Texas, California and South Africa. Shawn and Becki saw to everyone's need. They did a fantastic job keeping all of us moving in the same direction. I can’t imagine how much of a challenge it must be to keep everyone happy for a day or two, let alone two weeks. Our group became close friends - thanks to Shawn and Becki.
It is incredibly obvious how much Shawn and Becki LOVE Japan. They care deeply about the culture and it shows. They wanted to make sure that we didn't just see the sites, but really learned and understood (as much as is possible in 2 weeks) about the remarkable people and their culture. We immersed ourselves in food, culture and day to day Japanese life. Shawn and Becki were with us every step of the way, sharing their knowledge and passion. Most people don’t get that on a normal “Tour”. This wasn’t a tour. This was a trip with friends.
We highly recommend Japan and More. The sheer depth and breadth of experiences were remarkable. I can't imagine traveling to Japan in any other way.

Your appreciation for our love of Japan and dedication to sharing its culture means the world to us. It was our mission to go beyond the surface, ensuring you didn't just see the sites, but truly immersed yourselves in the essence of Japan. Your description of the trip as not just a tour, but a journey with friends perfectly captures the spirit we aim to create.
We're grateful for the time we spent exploring food, culture, and day-to-day life together. Thank you for your recommendation. It warms our hearts, and we can't wait for the day when we can embark on another adventure with you and Kim.

We had the trip of a lifetime with Becki and Shawn from Japan and More. We spent months looking for the perfect fit for us and we had a checklist: small group (4 couples), curated experiences and first class accommodations. Becki and Shawn checked all of the boxes. We wanted to travel through Japan without having to worry about anything.
Becki and Shawn have lived in Japan for many years and have made wonderful connections allowing us to experience unique activities. In 2 weeks we stayed in several 4 star hotels, a ryokan with our own onsen and a
Buddhist temple. We ate incredible local specialties including ramen, gyoza, curry, tempura, Teppenyaki, Takoyaki, Okonomiyaki and Kobe beef. We experienced old Japan visiting shrines, temples and a castle and new Japan riding on the bullet train and walking through the streets and markets of Tokyo, Osaka and Hiroshima. We made dinner with 2 Japanese chefs, bought chef's knives from a 700 year old shop that once made Samurai swords and spent an evening with a real Geisha.
Becki and Shawn brought us on an unforgettable journey! We cannot recommend or thank them enough.
