Overview

For travelers looking to explore a more traditional side of Japan, Takayama and Shirakawa-go offer a great opportunity to immerse yourself in a world that seems far away from the hustle and bustle of major cities. Takayama today has within it a faithfully preserved traditional town composed of three major avenues and a number of alleyways. With crystal clear water flowing on both sides of the streets, and historical wooden buildings, you will be witness to the beauty of traditional Japanese architecture. Shirakawa-go, on the other hand, is and has always been a quaint village of thatched roof homes, where agriculture and cottage industries thrived for centuries. Nowadays, it has become well known as one of the few remaining villages in Japan that boasts a high number of preserved homes with thatched roofs. You are free to start your tour from either Takayama or Kanazawa, and also end the tour at either of those destinations.

Great Guide and Wonderful Experience

Published on Jun, 2024

Snow Monkey Resorts was great to work with to arrange this excursion for us. We were a family of 8 with children between the age of 3 and 9 and had seniors amongst us as well. Our guide and driver accommodated our needs and adjusted the itinerary to our needs. The vehicle was comfortable and equipped with a child seat for the youngest child. Enjoyed the narratives provided by our guide and all the additional tips he provided about dining options around Takayama was very helpful too. Would definitely recommend to others wanting. To arrange a private tour of the area.
