The local guide was excellent, and the overall experience was comfortable, with detailed explanations of all the places we visited. The lunch was very special, served in a 300-year-old gassho-zukuri house, and the food was delicious – a truly unique experience. We also had the chance to try the famous Shirakawa-go pudding that's popular online. Not having to worry about lunch or transportation made this a perfect trip to enjoy with family or a partner.
