Takayama & Shirakawa-go endagstur fra Takayama

Guide Florentina was fun and easy going. She explained all details and did not rush during the process. The itinery was planned out well and our transportation to Kanazawa Station was a breeze. Thank you again Snow Monkey! 🤙

En fin tur startet i Takayama Jingya hvor guiden vår, Yushi San, forklarte shogunens historie, og Takayama er sannsynligvis den siste jinyaen som er tilgjengelig i Japan. Det var bra å ha en slik guide til å forklare, da han har vært snekker og forstår hvordan den gamle bygningen ble konstruert, ellers ville vi ikke ha satt pris på besøket. Det eneste problemet var at vi måtte gå barbeint eller med sokker i over en time i Jingya, som var kaldt. Etterpå besøkte vi gamlebygaten og Miyagawa morgenmarked, men det var allerede ganske sent og de fleste butikkene var i ferd med å pakke sammen. Etter en time med fritid ble vi hentet av en liten buss og dro til Shirakawa-go. Dessverre snødde det kraftig, så vi så ikke mye av naturen. Det var imidlertid en opplevelse å gå i snøen. Vi besøkte et av landsbyhusene, og det var veldig interessant. Vi hadde ikke fritid og gikk også glipp av utsiktspunktet på grunn av den kraftige snøen. Hele turen var godt organisert, og guiden var god og erfaren. Han snakket også ganske godt engelsk, men med japansk aksent. Alt i alt en interessant og fin tur. Man må gå mye.

Takumi-san er en flott guide, og turen er veldig interessant, man blir kjent med Takayama og Shirakawago. Hvis dere ønsker å fortsette til Kanazawa, hjelper guiden dere.

it's one of the best choice that we had. the tour was perfect from the pickup till the drop off point. they think all of the small details including the slipper when we are in the takayama jinya which if not wear it, it will be super cold.. the itenary is ok, we have enough free time to go with our own pace as this i a private tour (consist ls 6 person). I thank you the tour guide, Gary which is very knowlegeable and patiently answering queries from us including from my children plus able to take great pictures as well (it comes with the price hahaha).. the driver was also drive very well. I really recommended this tour for you.. two thumbs up !! P.S : Shirakawago is amazing during winter, feels like you travel to another dimension on earth.. no word can describe it.. you should try !

Our guide Yoshi was great! Explaining the history at Takayama Jinya and walking us to the old town before we took a private bus to Shirakawago. It was snowing heavily and so cold for us tropics folks but it was still a lovely experience. Thank you, we will visit again during other seasons!

La reserva mereció la pena. El guía (Sr. Mikasa) fue educado y preocupado para que aprendiéramos diferentes cosas de la ruta y cultura japonesas. repetiríamos.

Yuko San is amazing. She’s knowledgeable, attentive and professional. She gave us important background of the places we go without boring us and answered every question we posed. She knew I was collecting stamps, so always reminded me when there’s one. The driver who eventually dropped us in Kanazawa was also the nicest!! I couldn’t recommend this tour enough

Fastastic way to explore Takayama and also Shirakawago. Our guide was knowledgeable and provided a lot of insights to the history and background of of the places that we visited. and I enjoyed the different recommendations while going around the old sanmachi streets of Takayama. the whole day was entertaining and we got to take in a lot of the good things that the place has to offer at a leisure pace. I like that the pick up and drop off was at JR station Takayama. Making everything all that much more convenient.

Wr had a wonderful day our learning about both the areas. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and took his time to show us around.
