Japan Vacation Review, Silk Kimono Dyeing, Sake Tasting, Tokyo Fish Market Tour, Sumo Wrestling, Fire Purification Ceremony

WOW!!!! What a Fantastic trip, provided with the help of this travel team and our travel consultant.  I had a number fo things that I wanted to see but the consultant had several recommendations of additional experiences we could book and we were so glad we signed up for them (Fukui kimono silk dyeing, Tokyo fish market tour, Nara, Sake tasting).  
We had many discussions about whether to buy a JR rail pass on our own, or have the travel team buy our City-to-city train tickets, with reserved seats for us.  I'm really glad that we had the team pre-purchase our tickets- it really took the worry away from us!  
We stayed in the type of accommodations we requested - 3 stars. (in truth, they were much nicer than we expected).  
The travel team also set up all our day guides for each major city we visited (Kyoto, Kanazawa, Fukui, Tokyo).  All the guides were GREAT!  They were all very professional and organized,  extremely friendly, knowledgeable and fun and we felt like steadfast friends by the end of the day!  
The travel team also provided us with a pocket wifi, which was VERY handy!  
In the few instances where we had questions or issues during our trip (like the Typhoon that hit Japan while we were there), or a guide that didn't show up on time, the team was very quick to help us out to resolve any issue.
