Incredibly Useful
For our family trip to Japan, I got travel recommendations from LocalBound Japan. Meg provided curated lists for Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto/Nara, including Must Visit Placed and Foods To Try with Recommended Restaurants for each area. Each list included URLs, overviews and insider tips. Everything turned out to be incredibly useful for our trip.
