Travel Japan - Dear Sho

 I really appreciated the support I got from HIS-AKL in planning my trip to Japan. I was going a bit 'off grid' so not booking pre-formed tours and the help you provided was invaluable. I really appreciated your ability to find Japanese chain hotels to stay in that were convenient, clean and good value for money. Some of them were not ones I would have found on my own. Many of the 'western' chains were much more expensive. 
Your recommendations were very practical too - all of them were in walking distance of the key local train station, as we requested, so we didn't need to worry about taxis, and had non-smoking rooms. I know it must have taken lots of time to sort through all the options and present me with a reasonable selection of 2-3 to choose from. The pre-paid vouchers through HIS were also really helpful. 
Not only were our expenses spread out over time, but it was so easy to just hand the piece of paper to the hotel. It all worked perfectly.  

 I also appreciated the extra help you gave in reviewing and advising on transport options, sending me Japanese text for addresses in case we did need taxis, and even finding sports bars where we could watch the rugby!

Sho, you have given me great support and I would highly recommend you and HIS-AKL again, for any one else planning a trip to Japan. 

Katherine
