A great way to tour these hard to reach gems of historical beauty.

Published on Nov, 2024

It is not easy to access these beautiful historical towns so this very reasonably priced tour makes it all possible. We enjoyed our day immensely and our tour guide was friendly, efficient and ensured the day was well organised and everyone felt comfortable.

Well organised.

Easy to find meeting place, especially if you come by taxi, just ask for Shinkansen side. Tour guide Kiki was very efficient and very sweet. A long day, but well worth it. Goucho H and Takayama seem to have a closing day on a Wednesday as most shops closed in both places.

Excellent tour guide

Our guide Wang Jie was excellent! Extremely responsible and well versed in 3 languages. Highly recommended for a day getaway from Nagoya.

Worth it!

Published on Oct, 2024

The views were amazing, as was our tour guide, Kiki. Highly recommend. So much to see and not enough time in Nakayama bc the plethora of shops but overall 5/5 for value, efficiency and convenience.

Value for money, excellent tour

Published on Jul, 2024

The tour was a full day of lovely experiences. Travelling through amazing scenery in the mountains to the north of Nagoya was in itself a treat. The stops at Gujo Hachiman, Takayama and Shirakawa-go were relaxed and enjoyable. The guide was very good, and the bus driver did an amazing job navigating a detour from the expressway. Excellent value for money. A very full and varied day.
