Thanks for everything. Me Chen(接机司机) is cool! The hotel is very good. Thanks for arranging. We are very glad to have you.
Alice: Dear Jasmine, how is your trip so far?
Jasmine: Thank you for the plan, it's work out very smooth and as per schedule. We didn't manage to visit to Kachi-Kachi Ropeway due to the cable car out for maintenance. Thankfully the tour guide(中文导游菅敏岚) has work out another plan for us. It's really good.
Alice: Really? How about the tour of Matsumoto and snow monkey?
Jasmine: Hm... to be honest, I don't know that we have to walk about half and hour to see the snow monkey. the road is very slippery and it's only way to walk into jungle. That a bit dangerous. For senior that could be tough. But we make it.

Hi Nick,
We completed our tour today. It was very nice but we noticed at the end of the day that we were not taken to Ginseng center or Amythest center, even though it was on the itinerary.
Sincerely

Hi Melody
We received the package from Novaland Tours!
Thank you very much. It was a pleasant surprise.
It's our last night in Seoul today and we had a good trip in Korea, including our 2 days in Jeju with Novaland tour.
Our private tour guide, Victor was quite patient and waited for us while we climbed the shorter trail up Mt Halla. Unfortunately, he forgot to bring us to visit the waterfall and i only remembered that after we reached back to the hotel. However, he did make a quick stop along mysterious road.
Thanks for all your help and quick replies while we were planning for the trip.
I'll use Novaland again for our next trip
Best regards
Jia Ling
Bruce,.
Thank you Thank you so much for everything.
For facilitating everything to make our tour memorable and full of fun.
Till next time again
Nancy
Morning Doris,
Thank you yesterday Mt. Fuji was awesome,
And thank you again for all the effort Novalandtour give us, we're really appreciate that.
Today we're back to Jakarta looking foward to go back to Japan ^^
Thank you very much Doris & Novaland tour
Regards,
Binta Rizkina
Bruce,
I am not mad but greatly disappointed. I have looked forward to the JSA tour as can be detailed in the prior emails between you and I on scheduling the tour.
I am not mad but greatly disappointed. I have looked forward to the JSA tour as can be detailed in the prior emails between you and I on scheduling the tour.
This is our first tour to Korea and really, not sure when we will be able to come back again.
As to the refund, I feel aside from the emotional disappointment, it is fair and we will accept such arrangement.
Here are some points:
1. Reasons that this had happened can be rooted in three areas:
a. Lack of communication between you and Mr. Young -- when there was a change of itinerary, did you specifically notify the tour guides involved?? Or just an email??
b. Lack of attention to detail -- did Mr. Young carefully review the itinerary??
c. Lack of communication between you and the customer ( i.e. us ) - I was aware of the changes when Mr. Young told me that he was going to drive us to DMZ. Even though I had discussed with him two times and he had assured me that there was no major issue, it would be more comforting if you or a manager is more readily available.
2. Mr. Young is a very personable, friendly young man and we have enjoyed his tour. He has apologized profusely on this situation and we have accepted his apology.
We were very happy with this tour except with the exclusion of the JSA tour.
I look forward arranging future tours with you again as I have since reached retirement and do plan to travel a bit more.
Sincerely,
Henry

We did great in Osaka,thanks to the direction you give, it really help us navigating the subways going to the meeting places of the tour. Though we find it difficult in going to Taisho Station because its very far from hotel but the people there are helpful even if they had difficulty in talking english. We did not use google map we just follow your map then we always ask someone we can trust along the way when we confuse to follow the map, hahaha very funny, isnt it? but it was exciting as well. And then to our way back to Kansai Airport i thought the Osaka Loop line will go straight to Kansai Airport but i was wrong because we need to transfer to JR west line. Thanks God that the lady beside me is very accomodating i ask her if we ride in the right train going to Kansai Airport but she told us no, so keep on asking her and then she offered help and lead us the way to the right track of the train going to the airport, so thats it. All in all, everything goes very well.
Olive and I will thank you and were looking forward to get in touch with you to our next destination or recommend Novoland Tours to our friends.
Again, thank you.
Regards,
Sonia & Olive
thank you.... all is going well...we have had a nice time!
thank you forall your help Siva... James
Hello Emma!!! I can honestly say this has been one of our best trips so far! Novaland is awesome! The well thought of and planned tour itinerary, the informative and very accomodating/nice tour guides( we especially enjoyed Mr. Jacky in Seoul & Mr. John in Busan) , the endless delicious korean food, the fun activities( best was the trick museum, kimchi class, korean memorial, samsung d light and the Haedong Yunggungsa Temple in Busan), the comfy hotels and transport , everything was spot on! EXCELLENT ALL THE WAY!!! Thank you for making it special for us. Ok we will work on the 40 pics but some of the ones we want included are in the camera. If you can give me another 2 days to send it to you that would be awesome.
We hope to utilize Novaland again in the future for iur trips! We re already spreading the word to our friends regarding your awesome service. THANK YOU Very MUCH EMMA & NOVALAND!!! Feel free to use our comments and reviews for you on your website!

| *Tour guide for 1/2 days on Gion need some improvement as rush presenting the area. *Too short for photo activities for all the places due to time constraints. Example: travel on tour bus for two hours and only 30 minutes to see the area and take pictures. Going to Mt. Fuji 5th station can be long for photo and shopping activities. *More recommendations from local tour guide where to eat will be nice. | |
Overall Score of the Whole Package | 5 | Since this is the 1st time to Japan and the schedule is not too tight, We enjoy it very much and will go back again. | |
I was one of the ladies on the tour to Korea withWanda China. I was very impressed with the service we got from the tourguides you used for our tours. In Seoul we had Chul, he was veryinformative and was always prompt. He answered all of our questions. Hetook us to have Ginseng Chicken Soup that was very tasty. All of ourlunches was awesome. In Jeju, we had Douglas with Yeha tours. Thatwas a very beautiful day filled with awesome flowers, beaches, and the lunchwas just scrumptious! In Busan we had two tour guides, Mr Lee andElena. Mr Lee took us to traditional community on the side of themountain and we had awesome lunch. Elena was the best guide of the wholetour. She was very attentive and very energetic. She was a delightto have around. I just loved her positive attitude!!!
Overall I was very satisfied with the service,detail to everything we would need. You are number one 1 in my book and Iwould recommend you to any of my friends and family.
Mahalo and thank you for all that you have done tomake my vacation an awesome experience!!
