Memorable parts?
Exploring a wide range of parts of Japan and trying our hand at things like sushi making and noodle making
Tips?
It is a great way to maximise your time in Japan. Having the logistics worked out for you by a specialist who knows the country really helps to get more out of your time while the self-tour aspect means it is still under your won control and not confined by tour groups. That element of flexibility allows you to make the holiday your own
Local benefits?

Being literally surrounded by maturing Iberian Hams
Tips?
The surroundings of the Sierra de Aracena are beautiful, but to get the best from this trip it helps to be a bit of a foodie - and to like pork in general and ham in particular.
Local benefits?
For non-vegetarians it is important that the animals we eat live as natural a life as possible. The raising of Iberian Black Pigs fulfils this requirement. The holiday supports the local ham industry, much of... (more)David Williams
