Learning about local cultures with Nanami
Published on May, 2024
Lovely relaxed morning ride through Hida Furakawaregion learning about local farming, cultures and wildlife. Our guide Nanami was so engaging and passionate in sharing knowledge about local plants and wildlife. She was super organised in showing picture of the landscape in both current and winter seasons that really helped us appreciate the impact of the winter snow in this region. We were well away from the rest of the tourist crowd and had plenty of time to chat and ask questions as well as enjoy a tea break stop. Thankyou Namani.

A hidden gem and great way to experience Hida Furokawa
Published on Oct, 2023
A professional set up with great customer service. Nanami was a really super guide (very cheerful and friendly), even in the pouring rain! We saw plenty of countryside and learned lots. They provided full waterproofs for anyone who needed. They also have some beautiful accommodation - would be really wonderful to stay in Hida Furokawa for at least one night - so beautiful and very peaceful - hardly any tourists which is lovely after the busyness of Takayama. Would highly recommend.

Cycling through a living landscape
Published on Sep, 2023
The cycling is gentle and merely a great excuse to spend a few very pleasant, informative and educational hours exploring around the area of this fascinating, understated town, buying local food, meeting local people and generally learning about Hida life.
