Takayama and Shirakawa-go Tour is a must try. This is, we think, is a very relaxed tour. The bus is so spacious and the seats are so comfy. We enjoyed the road trip. For the actual place, it's super worth it! A must visit. It's just slippery because it's winter but we think that winter is the best time to visit these places.

Our Takayama and Shirakawago tour was truly one of the highlights of our trip. Everything was well-organized and perfectly paced, giving us enough time to explore. Hao, our tour guide, was wonderful, warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely attentive. She made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the journey. We especially appreciated her thoughtful recommendations on what to eat and what to see in both Takayama and Shirakawago. Because of her guidance, we were able to experience the best of both destinations. Special thanks as well to Ishida, who drove us all the way with such care and professionalism. You could truly feel that our safety was his priority. On our way back to the bus, he even made iced duck for us before we get on the bus, such a sweet and thoughtful gesture that made the day even more memorable. We would happily do it again, maybe in another season to see Takayama and Shirakawago in a different light.

It was convenient to book the tour to Shirakawa-go. The tour guide arrived on time at the meeting point, and her instructions were generally clear on the time and meeting points for each destination.

I highly recommend this tour. Although the drive was a bit long, seeing the snow-covered Shirakawa-go village makes you temporarily forget the fatigue of the journey. Takayama Old Town has a lot of delicious food and many souvenirs to choose from. The itinerary is well-arranged, with an appropriate amount of time spent at each attraction. The tour guide (Jia Jia) is friendly and reminds you of and supplements travel information along the way. She recommends delicious restaurants or snacks, takes the group members to a fixed location, and reminds them of the boarding time before letting everyone explore freely. This is different from the usual guided tour, where you don't need to travel together as a group and the tour guide explains everything while leading the way. This way is more relaxed, free, and stress-free. The group members this time were also great. Everyone was very punctual when getting on and off the bus, and the itinerary was not delayed at all. It was a perfect day.

It must have been difficult to control so many people in bad weather, but you guided us with a smile until the end. It was a pleasant tour, even recommending worthwhile travel destinations after the tour.

Ang mga tour guide ay may malawak na kaalaman tungkol sa lugar at kahit ang drayber ay nakakapagsalita ng Ingles. Umuulan ng niyebe noong kami ay bumisita. Ang oras na ibinigay para tuklasin ang lugar ay sapat lamang, hindi masyadong mahaba o masyadong maikli. Ang ahente ay nakatulong din upang ma-accommodate ang aming mga pangangailangan sa pagkain. Inirerekomenda.

Maganda ang tanawin at nag-enjoy ang mga bata sa paglalaro ng niyebe sa tuktok. Dapat maglaan ng kahit kalahating araw. Mayroon ding foot onsen sa unang hintuan kaya ibabad ang iyong mga paa pagkatapos maglaro sa niyebe.

Very good ride, it is very worthwhile. unfortunately we had an accident on the track and we were a little late, but even so we could enjoy it a lot (if organizing you can do everything that the cities have to offer in your free time)

Great family-friendly attraction. Sleds and donuts are free until 12:30 PM. A snowmobile pulled by someone else costs an extra 1500 for two people, plus 500 for each additional person, up to a maximum of 4 people. Everyone is Taiwanese.
