I went to Tokyo 3 years back, F&E. From the air ticket to the accomodation, to the bullet train, we had to do it ourselves. And this is when I first paid-use their service. I went down to their office in Chinatown as I couldn't decide on the flight route. They patiently served me, from checking out a SG-Bangkok-Tokyo flight and bangkok hotel (Thai airways) to a SG-transit-Tokyo flight (all kind of airlines). Eventually, they scrap out the Free-2-nights-HK promotion of Cathay pacific and I got a pretty cheap SG-Tokyo(transit HK) ticket. They also can process the application for the Japan Rail Pass.
On other trips, I usually use their website as a guage of the available promotions and prices of the different airlines, although I haven't got a chance to make use of their service for F&E trips again.

SA Tours give me a high level of comfort in this aspects, but I really have doubts going back again. Their packages tend to be higher priced, partly because their accomodation tend to be higher star. I went with them for my whole family Korea trip 4 yrs back and it came up to nearly $1.5k per person. It wasn't even winter.

But this aside, I thought the service was still ok when I took Jetstar to Bangkok. At least I do not need to go to the budget terminal.

Now, they have more of international buffet and keep the Peranakan cakes and dessert. And they have the durian puree (which I was told, is famous at their sister hotel, Swissotel Merchant Court), but too bad I was too "heaty" that day to try this.
I like their chinese dishes, like the meatball soup and the roast meat.

But I can't forget the steep steps that we climb (we were practically crawling) to get to the top of the temple and also the sunrise. The sunrise is not those where you see a big red ball jump out from the darkness. The sunrise here is amist a bright background as we see the sun from behind the big temple. A totally different experience.
(A pity I can't load this photo as I max-out the 5 photos limit and I can't delete my earlier upload).
For shopping, where we didn't thought of it initially, there were a lot of cheap shawl and handbags for sale. Those where you probably see at SGD 10-20 in Singapore, from Vietnam. Here the children are selling on the streets at only USD 1-2. How big a differential, not only about the price differential, but also about the life of kids. Some of the children even goto the extent of knocking on the windows of our stationary buses, trying to sell us travel guides.
