Päiväretki Shirakawa-gon Gassho-kylään ja Hida Takayaman kivikadulle Keski-Japanissa (lähtö Nagoyasta)

This was a convenient and easy way to get to Takayama and Shirakawa-go without having to worry about transferring from one mode of transportation to another. Although there was limited time given in each place, we were able to explore it still. The bus ride was convenient, and the meeting place was easy to locate. We left and arrived right on time. The tour guide was nice and accommodating, and it was an overall pleasant experience.

This winter day trip to Takayama and Shirakawa-go was truly unforgettable and one of the highlights of my time in Japan. Visiting Shirakawa-go while it was covered in snow felt like stepping into a fairytale-the gassho-zukuri houses looked absolutely stunning in the winter scenery. Takayama was just as charming, with its traditional streets, historic atmosphere, and cozy winter vibes. The entire trip was very well organized, transportation was comfortable and warm, and everything ran smoothly, making the day completely stress-free. We had enough time at both locations to explore, take photos, and enjoy the atmosphere without feeling rushed. Our guide, Lee, was very friendly and well knowledgeable, sharing interesting history and cultural insights that really added to the experience. If you're visiting Japan in winter and want to see beautiful traditional towns, I can't recommend this day enough. Absolutely worth it!

Highly recommend this tour. We went in summer but it was still beautiful. Less time at the first stop with the Koi pond and more time at the lunch and shopping street would have been better. By the time we chose a lunch spot, we didn’t have much time to look in the stores. Overall an enjoyable experience with a guide who spoke 3 languages.

it was a dream destination. the tour was excellent and guide was very helpful. i love the takayama stop over. completely different gastronomic experience.

Family of 4 with an infant and 10yo kid. Paid for 3 and informed thru email that we have an infant with us. We had a lot of fun with this activity. Our tour guide Zhang is very friendly and accommodating. The meet up location was easy to locate since it's near metro. Zhang speaks English so communication is easy. She is very knowledgeable about the area. The time alloted for each location is enough (we stroll on our own and go to each meet up point after with the given time)

Our Takayama–Shirakawago tour was truly a 5/5 experience. The destinations were beautiful and felt like stepping into a real-life postcard, especially the traditional houses and peaceful mountain scenery. I did feel that the time at each stop was a bit short, and I wished we could stay longer to explore more, but I also understand that continuing the trip late at night would be difficult and unsafe for the driver, so the schedule made sense. The guides were patient, kind, and very helpful. They clearly explained what to see, what to expect, and gave easy directions, which made everything smooth and stress-free. Even with a tight itinerary, the overall vibe was relaxed and friendly. The bus was neat, comfortable, and well-organized, which made the long ride enjoyable. Overall, it was a memorable, well-managed tour that I would happily recommend to others.

We had a marvelous time. Our tour guide, Sirius, shared a deep local knowledge of history, culture and gidden gems in all the places we went to. Although the weather was warm, still we enjoyed ourselves. Thank you.

We enjoyed our tour with Sirius! Aside from the fact that Gujo, Takayama, and Shirakawa-go are all stunning and beautiful, I like how our tour guide explained each of the tourist spots. We even walked around the town of Gujo. We were able to see how beautiful this small town is. The time is also enough to explore each location.

Highly recommended to book this tour. I enjoyed it so much!! A must visit during winter season in Japan. Very organized tour and kind tour guide.

wonderful experience. the bus arrived on time and the guide was very nice as well. it was a smooth drive to shirakawago and takayama. the alloted time to each place were just enough for us to roam around the area. i will surely recommend this tour especially to first timer and doesn't have much time to do diy.
