Massa is very experienced and speaks good English. We enjoyed his explanation about the history of togakushi. He also brought us to have delicious soba lunch which we also enjoyed very much.

Reviews: Nagoya to Shirakawa-go & Hida Takayama: UNESCO Heritage 1-Day Tour
Guest User2025-11-05
The overall itinerary was somewhat rushed due to Japanese driver service time regulations. The Takayama leg of the trip was particularly tight, mainly because completing a meal and a full visit to the Takayama Jinya (traditional Japanese houses) within two hours was quite strenuous. Two hours was more than enough for the Shirakawa-go Gassho-zukuri village. The tour guide was very professional and nice, and his explanations were quite interesting. The group members came from all over the world, with mainland Chinese tourists making up about 10%, making it a very international team.

Reviews: Shirakawa-go Thatched Village & Hida Takayama Tour from Nagoya
Guest User2026-02-25
The guide, who spoke Korean, Japanese, and Chinese very well and had such clear diction that I thought she was a former flight attendant, even gave me her phone number, which made me feel at ease during the tour. She recommended good restaurants and gave me sufficient explanations so I didn't have to ask any questions. During lunch time, I left my wallet on the bus and the driver had to go eat, so I was very grateful that the guide tried his best to resolve the difficult situation. Fortunately, it was resolved, but I was sorry for bothering you during the meal. Thank you for telling me it was okay. She is beautiful not only in appearance but also in heart. I want to recommend this tour to people around me because it was so great!!

Reviews: From Takayama: Explore the Hida Locations of 'Your Name'

We had an absolutely fantastic tour! Throughout the whole day we were able to discover places from one of our favorite anime movies – a real highlight for fans, but also simply a beautiful way to experience the city from a unique perspective. The atmosphere was very relaxed, and we never felt rushed, but could enjoy everything at our own pace. Along the way, we also made several food stops, which made the tour even more varied and enjoyable. A very special highlight was making our own bracelets in a traditional Japanese way – such a unique and memorable experience that gave us a wonderful keepsake from the day. Our guide was simply amazing: super friendly, open, and very knowledgeable. We quickly felt comfortable with him, and he answered all of our questions – not only about the tour itself, but also about Japan in general. All in all, it was a beautiful, very personal tour that we can highly recommend!

Great fun a bit of a novelty. We got to learn a few Katana moves, how to throw a shuriken (star) and how to use a blow pipe. Got some great photos
