Review for: Round-trip ticket + Shirakawa-go Gassho-zukuri Village Ticket

e-ticket was good. no need to queue to buy bus tickets. the open air museum is beautiful. as it was raining the whole day when we visited, there was no snow at all: if not, it will look magical. the museum package by Nohi Bus came with ¥100 discount for ice cream and red bean soup. having hot red bean soup inside the hut is a good experience and warm us up. there are free green tea and water offered in the hut too.

Review for: Round-trip ticket between Takayama and Shirakawa-go

It's convenient; you just show it when you get on the bus, and it's not too difficult. Shirakawa-go is quite beautiful, and it's really enjoyable to spend a day there. I'll buy this again next time I visit in winter.

Review for: Round-trip ticket between Takayama and Shirakawa-go

The bus ticket voucher is very easy to use; you just need to activate it in the bus line and show it to the bus staff. We took it without a reservation; there were bus schedules specifically for that. If the bus fills up, they'll provide another one. The town is beautiful and well worth visiting.

Review for: Round-trip ticket between Takayama and Shirakawa-go

Saved me from the hassle of purchasing tickets at the bus centers. The lines can be long. The only thing I needed to be mindful of is the availability and the schedule of the “non-reserved / open seat buses.” If you’re doing DIY from Nagoya, better to plan properly as it could make or break your itinerary and spend more money. Another thing I appreciate too is if you didn’t make it to the bus at this certain schedule, there’ll be additional buses to board the next set of passengers on.

Easy to use with detailed instructions. Vouchers can be shown to staff before boarding. This is a non-reserved booking for bus times, dates, and seating.

Review for: Round-trip ticket between Takayama and Shirakawa-go

It was really easy to find the bus station and the ride there was smooth and good. It was raining when we visit Shirakawa-go but still worth the visit.

Review for: Round-trip ticket between Takayama and Shirakawa-go

Mobile ticketing is convenient because you don't need to go to the counter to exchange it. But go queue up earlier, because it is unreserved seating, and the bus may depart when full and the frequency is lower... On our return trip from Shirakawa-go, we wanted to take the 4:30 PM bus, arrived on time but it was already full and departed, the next bus was at 5:30 PM. If you want a more precise itinerary, please purchase a reserved seat bus.

Review for: Round-trip ticket between Takayama and Shirakawa-go

Buy tickets online for Shirakawa-go, round trip, conveniently. Just show them to the bus staff before boarding. The bus trip we took was the non-reserved seating type, so we just queued up to get on the bus. It's convenient not having to queue to buy tickets from the staff. For the outbound trip, you should choose to sit on the right side; the view will be better. For the return trip, you should sit on the left side.

Save MYR16 pp for this return bus tic vs buying at the Nohi bus center. Definitely a better option and easy to use as well.
