We recently completed a multi-city trip across Japan and South Korea with Novaland Tours, and it was truly a fantastic experience from start to finish!
From the initial planning stages to the final airport drop-off, everything was exceptionally well organised. Our travel coordinator, Melody, was responsive, patient, and incredibly helpful, tailoring the itinerary to meet our group’s preferences and ensuring every detail was accounted for.
The local guides were knowledgeable and friendly, the transportation was punctual and comfortable, and the accommodations were well-located and of great quality. We particularly appreciated how smoothly everything ran — it made the trip completely stress-free and allowed us to just focus on enjoying ourselves.
This was our first time using Novaland, and it certainly won’t be the last. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a personalised, seamless, and well-executed travel experience.
Thank you, Melody and the Novaland team, for an unforgettable journey!
Dear Doris:
Thank you so much for your excellent assistance in putting our Kyoto itinerary together. Everything worked out and we loved our day in this special city. Our tour guide was just darling and accommodated our needs and wishes beautifully.And we certainly appreciate you discovering that we had been given wrong information about our Osaka docking port!
Wonderful job! We are appreciative and indebted.

Too Tight or Too Loose? | 4 | We had too many things planned for the day in Seoul. We decided to skip the tower/sky car at the end because of the long wait. We didn’t know how much walking would be required and my elderly mother couldn’t do all of it. | |

A big thank you from all of us for an amazingly well-organised and smooth trip!
From start to finish, everything was so well planned — the transfers, guides, hotels, and daily activities all ran like clockwork. We truly appreciated your attention to detail and how responsive and helpful you were throughout the journey.
We had a fantastic time and will definitely recommend Novaland Tours to friends and family planning future trips!
Thanks again!
We had a great trip. David Dai is excellent, 1st class service. We really hope we can work with him again in the future.
Thank you for arranging my trip in Hokkaido, this afternoon I will fly back to Bali, Indonesia.
Also the driver Ken was very kind while serving me, until the trip was over.
I have entrusted the wifi router to Ken to send back to the provider.
Thanks again.
Best regards,
Erwan
It was a no stress vacation. The drivers and assistants that helped us were trustful. I appreciate the messages sent each night before next day confirming name and car that would pick us up at the hotel or at the train stations.
Thanks a lot!
We love Kaz and Hector!
And we love Japan.
I will recommend your service to anyone travelling to Japan.
They enjoyed the tea ceremony and the boat trip and our garden expert Iume was very knowledgeable! She was so good.
Thanks for organizing the day for us.
All the guides were every nice, some spoke English better than others but all very sweet and accommodating
Tomoko was so helpful with Ann. She helped her buy a dish she had seen and sent it to her to Kyoto !! So kind of her!!
That was so kind !
It's a pity Ann was upset with the hotel in Kyoto. I think you might have told us how rigid they are here.
We went along with them and the hotel is lovely really .
