Inuyama Castle tours

Tour was well managed and there was sufficient time to explore in each destination. The driver had to double up as the tour guide. He was most helpful and approachable. Overall, it was a value-for-money trip as the destinations were too far away to use public transport. Highly recommended!

The tour guide was really great. Although the itinerary was a bit rushed, the places we visited were all very beautiful, especially when it snowed, which made the experience even more different. The timing was just right.

The Inuyama Castle was built at its present location in 1537. It is the oldest standing castle in Japan. The Inuyama Castle was designated a National Treasure in 1935 by the Japanese Ministry of Education.

We're not ones to typically leave reviews, but since there's still no reviews and given the fact that we almost did not take this tour, I felt we'd do our part and leave this review for others who might interested in this tour. Yumi, our guide was great and very accomodating for us. Traveling as a group of six with two younger kids and my in-laws who are older and on the slower side can be challenging and she and everyone else we interacted with on our tour were very accomodating. We all enjoyed this tour I think because we got to experience things that we typically would not get to see traveling on our own around the Nagoya region. First stop in Seki City making the mini scissors was fun, especially for the kids and were cool little souveniers. We ended up buying several more to take home as gifts for others and me being a fan of all kitchen knives in Japan, ended up buying a nice vegetable knife to take home. So many different scissors, knives, even gardening and woodworking tools, I could have easily spend another hour shopping at our first stop! Alas, we must move on...... After a delicious lunch we got to walk through a historical district and tour an old traditional home then went to walk through the Washi museum which was to my surprise a great experience. Finally, the highlight, Inuyama castle which we walked with a local guide who was super knowledge about the history of the castle and led us on a tour of the castle all the way up to the top and around the outer walkway where we got a 360 degree view of the area. Yumi accompanied us the entire day as our guide and translator and was nice enough to make sure we got on the right bus back to our hotel at the end of the day. Safe to say that we were all happy that we chose to take this tour.

The private car charter went smoothly. The driver was kind and tried his best to meet our needs. We went to many places and introduced the beautiful scenery. He also informed us in advance if there was a possibility of overtime. He was very considerate of us.

Linda was an amazing tour guide! She made sure to check on everyone during the entire trip and was very informative. We had recived news that it was cloudy but thanks to her wish we were able to see Mt. Fuji! All of the sites were magnificent. The itinerary was perfect and the buffet was delicious. At the end of the trip there was a malfunction of the A.C and the bus became very warm. Linda went above and beyond by opening all of the windows and constantly fanned every passanger with a booklet to help us stay cool. Moments like this can occur and Linda handled it extremely well! I am very happy and proud to have had Linda as my guide for my family and would 100% do this tour again. Thank you, Linda!

The meeting point was very easy to locate, which made the whole experience start off smoothly. The itinerary was well-paced and the guide was friendly and helpful throughout the trip. The bus could definitely be a bit cleaner, but overall it was a great value for the price. Worth every penny for the experience!
