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: Shirakawa-go Thatched Village & Hida Takayama Tour from Nagoya
Guest User2026-02-25
The guide, who spoke Korean, Japanese, and Chinese very well and had such clear diction that I thought she was a former flight attendant, even gave me her phone number, which made me feel at ease during the tour. She recommended good restaurants and gave me sufficient explanations so I didn't have to ask any questions. During lunch time, I left my wallet on the bus and the driver had to go eat, so I was very grateful that the guide tried his best to resolve the difficult situation. Fortunately, it was resolved, but I was sorry for bothering you during the meal. Thank you for telling me it was okay. She is beautiful not only in appearance but also in heart. I want to recommend this tour to people around me because it was so great!!★

Reviews: [Limited Time Offer] Day Tour from Nagoya | Hida Takayama & Shirakawa-go Gassho Village World Heritage Site
Guest User2026-01-20
A very enjoyable trip.
I was initially reluctant to join a large group tour, but after checking the transportation options and finding them inconvenient and expensive to hire a car, I opted for a group tour.
The result was surprisingly smooth and comfortable.
Our tour guide, Xiao Liu, was very patient and responsible. We were free to explore after disembarking, but she diligently explained the sights and routes on the bus in both Chinese and English.
The bus was very punctual and didn't wait for anyone. There were no shops along the way; everything was voluntary.
The people on the bus came from various countries, and everyone was very disciplined.
Suitable for: People with high energy levels who want a quick tour and don't need to plan too much, and for those who prioritize safety. For those with lower energy levels, a nice coffee shop with a good view to experience the local culture is also a good option.
Not suitable for: People who want to take great photos, those who want to stay in one place for too long, or those who can't tolerate long bus rides.
The bus ride was very smooth, and motion sickness was rare. You can wear an eye mask to rest on the bus; the tour guide will only remind you of precautions when you're almost at your destination.
Takayama City: If you walk quickly, besides the morning market, you can also visit Hie Shrine, where you can draw fortune slips; the scenery is also quite beautiful. (You must be very fit and have a strong sense of time.) Shirakawa-go: The scenery is beautiful; I was lucky enough to see a rainbow. If you walk fast, you can go to the observation deck, queue to buy pudding, and quickly tour the wooden houses.
One last small suggestion: I hope the tour guide can start timing from when you get off the bus, or set the time a few minutes later on the bus. If getting off the bus takes a few minutes, returning early will also take a few minutes, resulting in less time for sightseeing. So, unless there are unexpected circumstances, I hope the timing can be set a little later for a more comfortable experience.
That's all.★

Reviews: [Depart from Nagoya] Explore the Gassho Village of Shirakawa-go · Alpine Tour · Optional 9-person Small Group
Guest User2026-01-09
Our guide, Miyamoto, and the handsome driver were incredibly kind (treating us like family and friends from afar) and professional (their excellent time management at every point and deep understanding of the local culture and environment), making for a wonderful and unforgettable journey for all the passengers. Before disembarking, everyone spontaneously applauded in gratitude. We were also incredibly grateful to have encountered the second major blizzard of the year, and to have enjoyed the abundant, gentle snow in the Gassho-zukuri village. ☺️★

Guest User2025-07-16
There are not many team personnel, the Coster 18 is equipped, the driving is smooth along the way, the Chinese driver and the tour guide are equipped, and the tour guide to the attractions is very comprehensively introduced the classic characteristics, play time and meeting place. Very satisfied with a play experience, the upper highlands is really worth a visit.
