Reviews: Shirakawa-go Thatched Village & Hida Takayama Tour from Nagoya
Guest User2025-08-21
Nagoya, or rather, Japan. Finding the subway was so difficult that I almost missed it, but the spacious car and blasting air conditioning made for a wonderful trip. I highly recommend this trip to any Koreans looking for a quiet getaway, whether alone or in a small group! As a Korean, I wish we could have at least exchanged greetings in the afternoon, like on a school trip, but I'm satisfied. As for the Hapjang Village? The main area is crowded, but if you go across the river to a paid folk village, you'll get some great photos. For Koreans looking for a private and contemplative trip, spend the 600 yen! Be sure to try the grandma's ice cream!★

Reviews: Nagoya to Shirakawa-go & Hida Takayama: UNESCO Heritage 1-Day Tour
Guest User2025-09-23
This was a group tour with tourists from all over the world. The guide spoke Chinese, English, Japanese, and even Korean. It was a real challenge, and we were so competitive.
The bus was almost full.
The drive seemed to take about an hour, with a 10-minute stop at the Takayama service area, where everyone could do some shopping, use the restroom, and take photos.
We stayed in Takayama for two hours, and it was a pretty tight schedule.
We rushed to attend the Miyagawa morning market in Takayama, which closed at noon. We enjoyed some popular favorites like beef sushi, cat cafes, seasonal fruits, and milk. We also visited Takayama Jinya, the former headquarters of the Japanese government.
The Shirakawa River trip took another two hours, which was also quite tight. The route involved lining up for a bus (300 yen) to the summit. The famous Shirakawa scenery was all captured from the summit.
After descending, we visited a few more houses, but time was limited, so we only visited one or two. There was a fee for admission.★

Reviews: Japan Nagoya Hida Takayama + Shirakawa- one-day tour[9-person boutique group|Hotel pick-up optional]
Guest User2025-09-08
The itinerary was excellent and easy to follow, especially for those who are unfamiliar with Japanese or elderly. The driver, Xiao Ding, was skilled, drove smoothly, and the car was in good condition, making the journey very comfortable. He was warm and attentive, and even met us at the hotel in advance. The scenery of Takayama City and Shirakawa-go was amazing, allowing us to experience the unique Japanese countryside.
