Amazing and curated taste of the Nakasendo

Published on Mar, 2025

Tomo and her husband Ken were amazing guides. This was a thoughtfully curated day for our family where we experienced zazen meditation at a Buddhist temple (other options available), enjoyed a traditional lunch in Magome, did a lovely two hour hike on the famous Nakasendo trail and had time to explore both Magome and Tsumago. The drives were comfortable and Tomo provided us with context and history of Nagoya and the Nakasendo. This was an incredible day for our family. We highly recommend this tour and built our itinerary around it. We also wished we had more time in Nagoya as this is an amazing large city with minimal tourism. Book this tour!!

Knowledgeable guide featuring local side of things

Published on Jul, 2024

Excellent tour. Very convenient as guide came with driver to our hotel to pick us up. Knowledgeable guide who speaks good English. Helped customize the tour to our needs. Brought us to the different postal towns and a lovely place locals go for a soba lunch and a local tea house with free sweets and blueberries (free) that was along the way. Towards the end we were also taken to a Mochi shop and the guide knows the town well so she can help you with what you need. I specially was looking for a tour like this. Other guided tours take train and then followed by another bus to the start of the train but thats a lot of stress. Also because this tour has a private car, you do not need to rush to catch the bus and train back to the city so you can stroll the streets and walk the trail at your own pace
