Passeios por Gujo Hachiman Castle

Cici was a great guide, she was fluent in 3 languages, she gave us freedom to follow her around or to explore by ourselves. Felt a bit rushed in Gujo Hachiman, but the rest felt we had much much spare time to explore. Going with a tour like these is way cheaper than going by yourself.

Our tour guide, Lin Hu, was very kind and responsible, providing excellent service and detailed explanations. The weather was beautiful, the mountain town was charmingly old-fashioned, and Shirakawa-go felt like a paradise. The itinerary was well-planned with plenty of time. This was a wonderful experience.

I mainly signed up for Gujo Hachiman Castle, and it's definitely worth climbing up to the main keep to take a look. The only downside is that we only stayed in Gujo Hachiman for an hour, so climbing up to the castle felt a bit rushed. In Hida Takayama Old Town, you must try Hida beef, and in Shirakawa-go, you definitely need to go up to the observation deck. Our tour guide, Liu Chang, gets 100 points! Before the tour started, she introduced the attractions in three languages (Chinese, English, and Japanese) and clearly stated the meeting times. The driver drove steadily. It was a very fulfilling trip, highly recommended.

It was a wonderful trip, and our tour guide, Liu Chang, had a very sweet voice. We thoroughly enjoyed her explanations of the attractions, and she also recommended local delicacies. It was a very comfortable journey! So great~ Must give her praise! (Secretly slipped her a tip)

非常好的行程，有充足的时间探索每个区域。导游刘畅非常专业，会说三种语言。这不是一个导游陪同的行程。导游只会解释我们可以在该区域做什么以及我们需要返回巴士的时间，然后我们就可以自行探索该区域了。

An amazing experience! This was my first time joining a Klook day tour abroad. The night before departure, receiving the pre-trip briefing email from the guide gave me a great sense of reassurance. Along the way, our guide, Mr. Wang, fluently introduced the attractions and shared important reminders in Mandarin, English, and Japanese—he was very professional 👍🏻 The entire tour went extremely smoothly, and the schedule was managed with great precision. Although summer in Shirakawa-go lacks the classic snow-covered landscape, the lush green fields offered a completely different yet beautiful scenery 🥰

If you like taking photos, choose one place, otherwise you'll have to rush, or I suggest staying overnight. The beautiful driver was very steady and polite; it was truly hard work for her to drive three hours there and three hours back, totaling six hours. I highly recommend visiting Shirakawa-go in both summer and winter; it's truly beautiful.
