The highlight of my trip to Japan

Published on Dec, 2024

Incredible experience. My favorite part of my Japan trip. Would recommend going in the winter. Also, the tour guides Yasushi-san and Aiko-san were very informative, fun, and helpful.

Loved it

Published on Dec, 2024

Very insightful trip with a joyful atmosphere. We learned a lot about Japanese culture and history and Yasushi and Aiko were very kind and made sure we had a great time while giving us some context along the way. Totally worth the price!

Avoid traffic and go early with this tour!

Published on Nov, 2024

Aiko is super cute and sweet! The tour is well organized and you get 2 hours of free time at Shirakawa-go. There are 2 tour guides, thank you Aiko & Yasushi!

Great trip!

Published on Nov, 2024

Yasushi was so sweet and a great host! The bus was quick, getting to Shirakawa-go early was definitely a good move. We got time at the site to explore on our own which was amazing.

A wonderful trip

Published on Nov, 2024

Our morning trip to Shirakawa-go with Aiko was excellent. She even managed fine weather for us. The village was a trip back in time and Aiko was always on hand for explanations, photo opportunities and food/drink suggestions. Arigato gozaimas Aiko.
