Highly recommended if you want to go to Shirakawa-go. Our tour guide was really helpful and patient in answering our questions. He also shares brief history of the place in 3 different languages!!! (Chinese, English, Japanase).The original itinerary was supposed to be Gujo Hachiman-Takayama-Shirakawago but it was so traffic so he decided and recommended to go first to Takayama (to take our lunch)-Shirakawago-Gujo Hachiman. If we follow the original route it will sunset or already dark once we arrived at Shirakawago and I think it was not ideal to take pictures at night.

This one day tour to Gujo Hachiman, Takayama and Shirakawago was a perfect choice for our last day in Nagoya. Wang, our tour guide can speak Japanese, Chinese and English so we could enjoy our trip in diverse participants. Although it was a shower in the morning, but the tour was running well and smooth, with all the participants were on time all the time. Really enjoyed this group activity!

Although in the older aged group we managed the walk to castle but time constraint once you managed the 360+ stairs. i suggest you use roadway but a little longer. Believe what this tour is about and enjoy the village. A little snow around but would be even better with snow. eating options good throughout and stops well planned. Definitely a 4.5 experience.

Enjoyed this trip with my wife, visiting three wonderful locations. But we were not able to explore Takayama since we were only allowed 1.5 hrs instead of 2 hrs. Anyway, we love Japan and thanks Klook!

Due to the traffic jam, the time for Takayama and Gassho Village was compressed by half an hour each. It was a pity that we were unable to visit Hie Shrine in Takayama and the big house in Gassho Village. Due to the temperature and humidity, there happened to be significant snowfall in Koriyama Hachiman that day (and the temperature started to rise sharply the next day, which may be the last one). The white-stained Kojoyama Hachiman Castle is really beautiful, especially For me, the first time I saw snow. (Walking on it feels like you are stepping on ice) When you go to Takayama, you must eat Hida beef. The beef tastes very fragrant, and the A5 skewers have a more fat aroma. Unfortunately, I did not find a store with a sake vending machine. There is still enough time in Gassho Village to reach the observation deck and overlook the settlement surrounded by mountains. On the way back, we will pass by a rest area selling Gifu and Hida specialties (but we bought them at the Mikawaya Honten in Takayama). The tour guide Wang Jie is familiar with Chinese, English and Japanese and also provided a lot of suggestions for visiting. (Ex. How to get to Gassho Village Observation Deck more smoothly), he is a very kind and serious little boy. This trip was a bit regretful because of the heavy snow, but it also left unforgettable memories amidst the falling snow~

Great experience! The tour guide is very reliable. Thanks to the puntual driver, the trip was smooth and arrived at each destination slightly earlier than scheduled, so we could have extra time. The only negative thing was the noisy tourists behind our row on the bus, but that has nothing to do with the tour. The overall experience was pleasant and wonderful.

This tour takes to 3 different locations in one day which is great. If we only had like another 15 minutes in each location, then it wouldn't feel as rushed to get through each town. Shirakawago should definitely be on everyone's itinerary so this reasonably priced tour can make that possible! The staff was very friendly, the bus was clean, I really enjoyed this day tour
