Mugezhili is a beautiful and fun place; the children had a great time. The hot spring facilities are also excellent, with many types of hot spring pools that are clean and comfortable. There's no need to drive yourself; you can just take a ride and relax once you arrive. The tour guide from the travel company was very helpful in resolving issues and providing assistance when problems arose. The driver arranged for us drove smoothly and was polite and responsible. Klook also actively helped with any issues, making this a pleasant and successful day trip.

Even though the schedule may seem tight, there's enough time to explore each destination. Our tour guide Naka provided sufficient information in advance to make each stop more efficient, and even suggest a few options to make it more fun (e.g. sake tasting).

Really worth it trip. It’s the highlight of my 2026 Japan trip. Shirakawago in winter is magical like straight from a story book or snow globe. Meet up point is easy to get to as it’s just in front of Nagoya Station. I was even from Kyoto and found the meeting place easily despite the ongoing construction of the landmark. One suggestion though is to shorten the time in Takayama and add it to Shirakawago as 1.5hrs isn’t enough to explore the area. The guide is also very kind. Kudos to Anny-san, she is very professional and considerate. Over-all really recommend tour!

Incredible value - how else would you see Gujo Hachiman, Takayama and Shirakawa-go in one day? Even though the trip was a whole day it didn't feel long at all and everything went really smooth. Thank you very much, Helen, for your effort!

We really enjoyed the tour. Our guide was very informative and spoke excellent English, which made the experience smooth and engaging. Bokka no Sato is definitely a great place to visit from Nagoya—perfect for kids and kids at heart! Highly recommended!

Mengmeng, I really like her. She is very nice and gentle, and her introductions are very detailed. She is super friendly to children. She is a great guide. I hope Mengmeng will be here next time.

I get the hype about Shirakawago it was really a heritage site but I just hated the crowed. Too many people so taking pictures was a struggle. But aside from that all the places we went were great and I didn't expect that the kiyosu castle will be the one that I liked the best.

This tour is so worth it! I went last year and tried to diy but I failed. I made sure that this year will be the year to visit Shirakawago and it did not disappoint. Altho the place was not fully covered by snow as they have already melted but the vibe is still there. The guide Helen was very informative and approachable. She recommended places to eat and where to go. The trip was comfortable and there was ample time to explore the areas. Will definitely recommend to friends and family. Will also visit again during different seasons.
