Things to do in Kamikochi

Suesy was a great guide, friendly and knowledgeable, her energy made a rainy day much better. However hiking in the rain, I missed much of the scenery due to fog, was absolutely drenched as well. Proper rain gear and waterproof shoes are recommended for rainy days. Otherwise a cool experience.

This was my second time booking with this travel agency. We departed on time and arrived back in Nagoya exactly at 6 PM. The journey was smooth, and there were only eight of us on the shuttle bus, which made it very comfortable. I’m satisfied with the service, even though the weather wasn’t ideal—it was raining and the Alps didn’t show. I still had a great experience overall. I would definitely book again next time.

Kamikochi, known as "God's Homeland," truly is the most beautiful hiking destination. Walking along the Azusa River trail, nestled beneath the Hotaka mountain range, is incredibly refreshing. The breathtaking scenery, where the clear stream intertwines with the Hotaka peaks, is stunning and truly uplifting. Our tour guide, Yukino, was exceptionally dedicated on this trip. She meticulously prepared all the information, including introductions to attractions, suggested routes, and food recommendations, providing comprehensive details to all participants. She also catered to both Chinese and English-speaking guests, proving to be an incredibly diligent and responsible leader. Highly recommended!

Tour absolutely worth visiting, the time is limited and not enough to visid everything unless you walk very fast without breaks... But the place is stunning even on a basik route. Guide Han spoke really good English and explained all important information and gave useful recommendations.

A convenient way to visit Kamikochi from Nagoya, no need to worry about public transportation time and crowd. The trip was wonderful and well organized. I'm so impressed with our tour guide, Yukino. She is kind and knowledgeable. She gave us a lot of information about the tour itself and also about where to go and what to do next around Nagoya. She speaks english and mandarin clearly and fluent. She made the trip become more better.

love to visit here , my wishlist to visit another prefecture of japan complete.. this one very take my heart . hope to come again with my husband .. view very perfect!! tour guide also bery helpful and clear ..

I was initially a bit anxious as I booked this tour despite its lack of reviews and I’m a solo female traveller. I’m returning to Tokyo now and wanted to share my experience. The long drive is worth it for a great view of Kamikochi if you’re short on time. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there and found the price very reasonable for a 9-hour round trip. The weather was perfect, enhancing the beautiful scenery. My guide, Cathy, was accommodating and kind, making me feel safe and taken care of. The driver also drove safely. I highly recommend this tour, but be prepared for a long day! There’s plenty of opportunities to nap during the bus ride anyway.

The meeting point was easy to find, and the departure was on time. Even though it was rainy and cloudy on the day we went, we were able to comfortably walk the 3.5 km without getting tired. Our guide, Yamada, provided detailed explanations in both English and Japanese. We made three stops at rest areas, and we arrived back in Nagoya on time, around 7 PM.

A very enjoyable tour with a knowledgeable and extremely enthusiastic guide. We loved the walk through Kamikochi despite the thunderstorm!
