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.

The itinerary was well-planned, and the Chinese-speaking tour guide was excellent. Highly recommended.

Reviews: 1-Day Tour from Takayama: Hida Folk Village, Caves & Ropeway
Guest User2025-03-12
The trip (in early March) to the Japanese Alps was, overall, very nice. Our guide (Yosi? He gave us his nickname) was really friendly, knowledgeable, and communicative. We even stopped at a convenience store so everyone could buy lunch, which we could eat later on the bus. Due to the weather, he changed the order of the activities, and that was a good thing. The view from the lookout point was spectacular. At the top, you also take a short walk (20 minutes) through the snow. That was really nice. Our group disagreed on the other activities. The caves didn't impress me. There wasn't much to say about them either. They were caves with stalactites and stalagmites. That's it. At the end, there's a small shrine for couples, and in winter, there's also a path with a frozen ice wall, which was very nice, but otherwise, rather mediocre. Hida Folk Village is interesting and beautiful to look at.

If you can't get a reserved seat, I highly recommend buying this ticket directly. For independent travelers, you don't need to make a reservation or exchange tickets; you just need to queue up when the time comes, which is extremely convenient!
