It starts with a good tour guide Ms Xiao YU and a safe driver. Great touring experience at Hida and Shirakawago. We learn a lot on the history of the area and leaves color in the northern part of Nagoya is breathtaking. Lunch offered considering the location of restaurant, which is quite remote , is good. Only complaint is the lunch time is too rush. All in all, I would recommend to my friends.
Upon arrival, it was confirmed that the cable car was operating normally, and I could immediately purchase a ticket and use it – very convenient. Those concerned about the weather can follow the same procedure. Definitely worth visiting during the fall foliage season.
The itinerary was very fulfilling, with visits to three scenic spots, all of which were beautiful. It would have been even better if we could have spent more time in Takayama Old Town. The tour guide was very professional, providing explanations in three languages, which deepened my understanding and impression of these places.
It took about 2.5 hours from Nagoya station - on the one-day bus tour! It stopped at Tagayama高山 for two hours. 白川鄉 has a lot of people as we arrived after 14:00! Getting up to the look out by walking - it was a bit steep - you can take a shuttle bus (every 20 mins - 300 yen one way)! The view on the top was okay as now mostly is in yellow of the fields and brown in houses. As if there were not so many people which would have been better🤭
The tour guide and driver are very dedicated, and the itinerary is perfect. Although it rained heavily, it did not affect the mood of the tour. I was very satisfied with the first day tour, and my family also had a great time. I recommend it!
