It’s been a big start to Japan 2024 with a small group with a visit to Tokyo in the first 3 days, Hakone next then Takayama and Shirakawago. Lovely to get out of the city and into the countryside. Spending a lot of time in queues as it seems like this lovely country is on the world’s radar.

A testimonial from Rani who recently organised a small Pilgrimage to some of the in India.

I just wanted to let you know what an amazing trip we are having. After a small hiccup (seatbelts) at the beginning, everything is flowing so beautifully now. Our hotels are great, our new driver is great and all the seatbelts are now working in the car! Thank-you so much for the wonderful trip you planned for us, it is really a trip of a lifetime. We are sharing all the merits with you and your wonderful staff. 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks Rani, pleased you had such a wonderful Pilgrimage. Thanks also to Shiv Kumar and the team.

Vikas Kumar is currently in Ladakh on a private photography tour. It is a haven for beauty with its snow capped mountains, Buddhist monasteries and people who still live traditionally. It is an amazing place to visit, definitely one to put on your bucket list.
