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.★

Guest User2025-05-04
Beautiful scenery and food of moths and Shirakawa township. From the 5 tunnels passed through the moths and mountains to the secret land of Baichuan Township, the twilight season is also beautiful: the late cherry blossoms, there is snow on the mountains in the distance, the fish in the stream are moving, and the village without snow shows the natural style. The village is colorful, and you can eat all the way. Haha is also a kind of enjoyment, thank you for the day group tour guide, very serious, knowledge is wide, all the way to explain to us, introduce the food, you can often participate in the day activities in the future, worry and effort.★

Reviews: 1-day tour of Shirakawa-go + Hida Takayama + "Your Name" in Nagoya, Japan
Guest User2025-10-14
We booked a group tour through Ctrip, which was very convenient. The meeting point was right outside one of the Nagoya Station exits. The guide took attendance and assigned seats. He gave a brief overview of the attractions and distributed a map. I'd heard colleagues talk about Shirakawa-go Gassho Village as being beautiful, especially in winter after the snow. Although we visited on October 7th, the scenery was still stunning. I hadn't expected such a beautiful village to exist deep in the mountains. It wasn't crowded, and we all had a wonderful time strolling through the beautiful village.★

Reviews: Departing from Nagoya | Day Tour to Explore Takayama & Shirakawa-go's Gassho-zukuri Villages World Heritage
Guest User2025-07-31
The itinerary is very compact, but fortunately there is a bus transfer and a tour guide to explain the whole process, saving the trouble of checking the traffic by yourself, it is really convenient! Shirakawa Township is super beautiful, and the morning market of the missile alpine is also very interesting. It is a bit in a hurry. After shopping on the street, taking pictures, and going to a shrine, you have to gather. The ramen and roast meat recommended by the tour guide look very attractive, but unfortunately there is no time to eat, and I will make up for it next time.★

Reviews: Hida Takayama + Shirakawa-go Gassho Village|Small group option for 9 people, with two daily departures.|Nagoya round-trip
Guest User2025-11-24
Shirakawa-go is such a beautiful village. I highly recommend visiting. Even if you go on your own, the cost and distance are considerable, and the return trip is early, so it's better to take a tour. This is my second time on a tour in Japan, and I wish they had provided tourist tips in advance (I felt it was significantly lacking compared to Taiwanese tours). >>> I paid an entrance fee for the houses that were open to the public, so there was no need to wait to go inside. Due to traffic issues, I went to Shirakawa-go first, which was on my itinerary, but the 12 o'clock shuttle didn't run, so I walked up to the observatory (I had to go there anyway). Thank you, guide Lee.
