Absolute Active Japan Tour

I mean I've taken 8 or 9 G tours already and I've read the Full Itinerary every time and for your Absolute Active tour, it's as you described. If you had read that, you would know most hikes are 3-4km.

Aside from a challenging initial hike on Mount Fuji, the rest of the tour's hikes were incredibly short, often no more than 3 kilometers. They were more like walks in a park, made worse by a guide who droned on about uninteresting topics.

The accommodations were mediocre at best, and the food was equally uninspired. We ate at hotel buffets for most of the trip.

Overall, I would rate this tour a **5/10**. It may be suitable for someone who wants a guided tour with lots of downtime, but it is a poor choice for anyone seeking a truly active and adventurous experience.

We were promised a sunrise view from the summit of Mount Fuji, but without any prior discussion, the guide changed the plan and we watched it from the side of the mountain. This was a frustrating and disrespectful decision.

I recently completed the three-week Absolute Active Japan tour, and as a first-time solo traveler outside of North America and on a group tour, I went in with high hopes. Unfortunately, the tour fell short of expectations and I would not recommend it to anyone looking for an genuinely active vacation.

Travel time to our destinations often exceeded the time spent on the activity itself, particularly in Okinawa. The kayaking sessions, for example, lasted only about an hour.
