Top Experience- Must do!!!
This is a must do experience- leaves directly from the Takayama station- wonderful day trip to get out of town and see the beautiful scenery and hikes. Yoshi was our guide and he was amazing! Great family trip, easy hikes and great experiences! Ropeway is fantastic!!

Outstanding!
Mizu met us at our hotel and then gave us a half-day tour of the key places we wanted to go. She was amazing and knew so much about the attractions as well as the town in general, history, and the local area. We were truly honored to have her as our guide!

We absolutely loved our...
We absolutely loved our day trip to Shirakawa-Go and Ainokura. The coach was comfortable and we had excellent views from the window, with the bus slowing down at photo spots. The tour guide was lovely and very helpful!
Ainokura was definitely a highlight - although a much smaller village- it was much quieter and we were able to walk around some spots without anyone else being around. Just a short 10 minute uphill walk to the most amazing view of the village & Japanese Alps.
Shirakawa-Go was definitely more crowded (& loud) but still very enjoyable. Sadly, most restaurants seemed to be closed when we visited but we were stilll able to try the Hida Beef skewer which was delicious. It’s 100% worth spending more time at the Museum area as it is much quieter and absolutely beautiful- you can also enter most of the buildings (+ free green tea inside the resting building). Definitely recommend trying the icecream shop too!

Great Sake Brewery Tour
We really enjoyed our small group Funasaka Sake Brewery tour. Satoe our friendly and expert guide clearly provided the historic context and explained about the different types of rice used in the production and brewing process, before taking us through our tasty and enjoyable sake tasting session. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Great way to travel between Takayama and Kanazawa with a stop at Shirakawa-go
If you are travelling between Takayama and Kanazawa with luggage and want to stop and visit Shirakawa-go for a couple of hours on-route, without the stress of worrying about getting your cases onto local buses, or if local buses or coaches have underneath storage areas, this is a comfortable and easy option. Seats recline and there is lots more leg room compared to local buses.

The tour was amazing, and we visited some truly beautiful places.The highlight of the experience was our guide, Florentina. She was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and always attentive to everyone’s questions and needs. She truly made the experience unforgettable.
I am a Mexican tourist traveling solo, and I highly recommend this tour—especially Florentina as a guide.

Wonderful!
If you’re here and you’re considering this as an option, just book it! It’s exactly what you’d think it would be- and more! “Bob” and family welcome you in to their home, as special guests; they’ve thought of everything as you create a meal together that you get to enjoy in the comfort is their traditional Japanese home. Easy to find in the old town area and an experience like no other!
