From Nagoya Station, we embarked on a scenic journey to Gujo Hachiman, exploring its charming town and picturesque waterways. Next, we wandered through Hida Takayama’s historic Edo-period streets, savoring delicious halal Hida beef at Suzuya Restaurant. Our trip concluded in Shirakawa-go, marveling at the iconic gassho-style houses that showcase Japan’s rich rural architectural heritage.
Our tour guide, Wang, did an excellent job sharing insightful information about what makes each destination unique. His recommendations on how best to explore Shirakawa-go were incredibly helpful, and I especially appreciated his guidance through Gujo Hachiman, where we got to experience the beauty of its waterways. A well-organized and informative tour.

went for a day trip to Gujo Hachiman, Takayama and Shirakawago. Our tour guide was Wang Jie. He was proficient in Mandarin and English. He shared the history/information of the location and will give us recommendations on where you have lunch/ dessert. Time for visiting Takayama was a bit rush with 2 hours to include lunch. Overall, we enjoyed the day trip and was worth the price. Would recommend to plan a 2 day 1 night trip to Takayama. It is a lovely town.

On-time schedule, though wish we could’ve stayed a bit longer at the Shirakawa-go village. The short hike going to the viewing deck is really worthwhile! The tour guide also was helpful and provided us with the option to roam around the areas on our own.

Excellent excursion. Wong was a genius. Always giving advice on what to see and explaining everything in detail. I highly recommend it, even if your English isn't that good... it's a unique experience.

My tour to Shirakawago was an absolute highlight of my trip to Japan and Kiki played a big role in making it so special. We got the chance to visits to many beautiful traditional house in the village. Kiki's enthusiasm and knowledge of the area made the tour incredibly enjoyable, and I felt like I learned a lot about the history and culture of the region. The tour was overall high quality and I would definitely recommend Kiki as a tour guide for anyone looking to explore the area.

The itinerary is very rich and compact. We set off at 8 am and returned to Nagoya Station at around 7 pm. It was a very exciting day. Gujo Hachiman suggested going up to the castle. It only took us eight minutes to go up, but the tour guide said it would take 25 minutes; so many people didn’t go up (a pity). When going to Shirakawa-go, it is recommended to go to the observatory to truly appreciate the local beauty. The tour guide is very "shy and introverted". She only tells you where to go to the next stop. She does not introduce the historical background or the origin of the allusions at all. When you arrive at the scenic spot, she will not take you around or introduce the scenic spot...
