Essence of Japan, Spring 2012
We are planning on a trip to Japan during April 2012. Is there any one who made the trip before and advise us as to the language, weather and culture of the country as you saw and experienced it? Also, is there any apprehension because of the Nuclear episode, Tusami and Earthquake.

We absolutely LOVED Japan. Kit was also our TD and, as previously stated, so helpful and knowledgeable He made it easy for us to be comfortable and enjoy the beauty of that country, I am Vegan and, since language was a problem, he wrote a note in Japan stating what I could and could not eat. I took it to the restaurants with me and in almost every case, the chef would come to the table and tell me, in broken english, exactly what he was able to prepare for me for dinner! It was so smart and I was so much more comfortable with the food.
In the future, I will ask our TD's to do the same in any country that language may be a problem.
Fabulous trip! Saw amazing things and met such gentle and sweet people. BTW, the taxi cabs are the cleanest we have ever seen! Drivers wear white gloves and there are doilies on the headrests for cleanliness! Hotels were wonderful as well and the breakfast at our hotel in Kyoto was amazing. They had everything you could want on that buffet!
We are sure you will love it!
