Reviews: Nagoya to Shirakawa-go & Hida Takayama: UNESCO Heritage 1-Day Tour
Guest User2025-11-05
The overall itinerary was somewhat rushed due to Japanese driver service time regulations. The Takayama leg of the trip was particularly tight, mainly because completing a meal and a full visit to the Takayama Jinya (traditional Japanese houses) within two hours was quite strenuous. Two hours was more than enough for the Shirakawa-go Gassho-zukuri village. The tour guide was very professional and nice, and his explanations were quite interesting. The group members came from all over the world, with mainland Chinese tourists making up about 10%, making it a very international team.★

Reviews: 1-Day Tour to Shirakawa-go Gassho Village & Hida Takayama from Nagoya | Winter Hidden Gem Adventure
Guest User2026-01-04
Our tour guide, Liu, proactively added us to the group chat the day before the trip to remind us of important travel tips, which was very thoughtful. The 8:20 AM meeting point was perfect; we were comfortable sleeping and eating on the bus throughout the journey. Before arriving at each attraction, the guide gently woke us up and provided a bilingual (Chinese/Japanese) introduction to the key points of the visit, making it a hassle-free tour. I was delighted to experience my first and second snowfalls with my child in the Takayama and Gassho-zukuri villages, but unfortunately, the rain and snow made it incredibly cold, limiting the number of beautiful photos we could take.★

Guest User2026-01-30
Kawagoe is absolutely gorgeous! The scenery is like a fairytale world; you'll fall in love with it at first sight.
I especially want to thank our female guide, Miyamoto, for making this experience so wonderful. She not only planned the itinerary perfectly, managing the time flawlessly, and providing clear and detailed explanations, but she was also incredibly considerate, making me feel completely at ease throughout the trip.
She was more than just a guide; she was like a friend. I highly recommend her to first-time visitors! 👍★

Reviews: Shirakawa-go Day Tour [Gujo Hachiman & Hida Takayama & Shirakawa-go World Heritage Site]
Guest User2026-01-03
All the places are great to explore and really nice. Just my opinion, the tour guide should wait for all of us to get down from the bus first then he can started to explain about the place not when we reach down to him, he is done. And we arrived shirakawago around 3:15pm and the last shuttle bus around 3:40pm to observatory. So it is not enough time as we need to walk a bit to a pickup point for shuttle bus. All the three places are so crowded but still nice to explore★
