Thanks again Saizen Tours for all your assistance with our Japan Tour this year. We were a large group and you were able to accommodate us all and our special requests. Our boys thoroughly enjoyed Japan and many have vowed to return.

Thank you so much Saizen Tours for your support with the organisation of our Japan Trip
- it was an absolute success! The students had a wonderful time and I feel
 so honoured to have had the opportunity to watch them create lifetime
memories.  The effort that you went to, contributed significantly to this 
trip and definitely eased my concerns of going to Japan with students for
the first time - so again thank you!

Trinity Lutheran College - September 2014

At Trinity Lutheran College, our Japanese LOTE program is popular from Years Kindergarten to 12.  Our Secondary students regularly visit Japan but our students in the Junior School wanted to go on a tour also.  We felt it was too much for young children to go without their parents.  Therefore, we offered a tour for parents and children to attend which culiminated with 25 of us going on a community tour of Japan in September 2014.  Saizen Tours from the beginning were very helpful and coordinated everything for us perfectly.  Our families really enjoyed the tour and gained much from this cultural experience.  We visited Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo and everyone had a different place they enjoyed the most on the tour. We had students from 7 years of age through to a Grandparent who was well into her 60s and all coped well with the travel, the accommodation and the exciting activities we did. 

Thank you Saizen Tours on a job well done.  We appreciated the ideas you gave us and the places you booked for us.

Chisholm Catholic College - April 2014

The students and I had a fantastic time in Japan, and the timing with the cherry blossoms couldn’t have been better. The students enjoyed the traditional ryokan and food in Tokyo and had a fantastic time in Disneyland. The Japan Rail pass was handy and convenient, and the students found Kyoto and Hiroshima both beautiful and inspiring. As it was also my first time to that part of Japan, I found the guide with suggested destinations a great help. The timetable and hotel directions were also an invaluable addition.

I’ve since heard from parents of the students that they are still talking about the Japan trip since coming back, and some are already looking into their next visit to Japan. I can tell by the smiles in all of the photos (and the tears when we went home!) that each one of the students had a very special time that they will remember fondly.

Many thanks to Kellie at Saizen Tours for her help in ensuring our success on the trip. As it was my first time to visit Japan with 16 students, the support, advice and planning offered by Saizen tours proved invaluable. I look forward to our next tour with Saizen.

Again, many thanks for all your help and patience in organizing our trip. I look forward to doing it all again in 2016!  Matthew Strain - Japanese Teacher
