“A very cherry blossom-filled trip that far exceeded its billing.”

“When the weather forecast threatened to derail our Trafalgar group’s planned visit to Mount Fuji, a quick detour masterminded by our Splendours of Japan Travel Director not only enabled us to get a clear view of Mount Fuji a day early, but also allowed us to enjoy a beautiful, snowy stop at Oshino Hakkai, a small, rural village in the Fuji Five Lakes region, the next day just two memorable moments on a very cherry blossom-filled trip that far exceeded its billing. More than splendid, indeed!”

“We sailed on an overnight boat around Ha Long Bay. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the prettiest places I’ve ever been to! It was my parent’s first trip back to Vietnam in nearly 50 years and my first ever trip to Vietnam, and we trusted Trafalgar tours to show us around.”

“While in Siem Reap, Cambodia, in addition to the magnificent Angkor Wat, we visited Ta Prohm and several other temples in Angkor Archaeological Park.

“Ta Prohm Temple is very popular due to its unique appearance, because huge tree roots grow over and through the stone walls, pillars, and towers of the temple, and because it was featured in the Lara Croft movie, Tomb Raider. There is also a small, controversial carving of what appears to be a stegosaurus dinosaur in the corner of one building. Overall, the tour of Vietnam and Cambodia was an amazing experience. We highly recommend it.”

“Absolutely spectacular!!! This tour is a must.” –

Traditional thatched houses and arable fields in Gokayama Japan

“Trafalgar’s Splendours of Japan tour was transformative! My husband and I took the tour in April and we were completely transformed. Japan is absolutely stunning! The people are so helpful and polite.

“The grounds were exceptionally clean – even in the cities. I especially loved the countryside and Takayama because I love all the architecture of the traditional wooden houses that were built without nails and the thatched roofs. The icing on the cake was that we got to see Mt. Fuji!! Absolutely spectacular!!! This tour is a must.”

“Seeing the Golden Temple in Bangkok gave my husband and I the opportunity to experience a beautiful religion and culture that was brand new to us. Our Trafalgar trip to Asia was truly a vacation of a lifetime!”

“We went to market with chef and picked fresh ingredients for our cooking class at Blue Elephant. Then we cooked several dishes. I learned so much about food and culture of Thailand. I got to meet the famous chef and take photos with her. We ate the dishes which we had prepared for lunch that day. This was very unique and so rewarding.”
