Gujo

The itinerary was perfectly arranged. It might be a little challenging if you don't understand Japanese, but the staff will generally try their best to communicate with you in English or through gestures. Overall, it was fantastic.

This is a great option for families with young children. The kids have a blast! If you don't want to bring extra snow boots and take up too much luggage space, you can pre-book snow boot rentals on the Morigago no Sato website. The ice cream, pudding, fresh milk, and yogurt sold in the shops inside are also excellent and of a high standard. From 4:00 PM to 5:30 PM, there's a hot spring bath with separate large public baths for men and women. If you don't want to soak in the hot spring, you can sit and browse the shops and relax in the seating area. It's a great place to unwind during your trip to Nagoya.

The tour guide's time management was excellent, and I'm also grateful that all the other members of the tour group were very punctual.

With a nervous heart, I joined KKday's trip for the third time. On the first day, I rushed to the savory ramen shop of Shishimaru with heavy luggage and was too tired to pay attention to the messages when I got back to the hotel. Unexpectedly, KKday gave me a private car tour, because our package only had this group of customers. It was like winning the lottery! A special thank you to Xiao Lu for her excellent service. She guided us through these three places, providing detailed explanations of each attraction and how to see most of them within the limited time. Although we visited three different spots, each quite far apart, she made sure we didn't miss any of the key attractions. The tranquil Gujo Hachiman, even with shops closed or preparing to open, allowed me to enjoy its peaceful beauty and stunning mountain and river views. At Hida Beef Takayama Street, the retro Edo-era streetscape and the delicious taste of Hida beef were truly delightful. Thanks to Xiao Lu's explanation, I felt incredibly satisfied with each bite. We also tried Hida beef skewers, Gohei mochi, and other local delicacies. Finally, we arrived at the Gassho-zukuri village. Luckily, the weather was perfect, with a comfortable temperature. We played in the snow and had a snowball fight. My daughter rushed to the observation deck and saw the entire village, telling me the trip was worthwhile and truly wonderful. Finally, a special thank you to Xiao Lu for his steady driving skills, which made it feel like we weren't speeding through snow and mountains. He even took us to the designated location on the return trip, saving us a fare. Many thanks also for bringing my daughter's leftover earmuffs back to the hotel. If I could give a ten-star review, I would be so happy; I especially want to give a full five-star review!

The information was quite clear and accurate. Also, compared to joining a local tour, KKday's guidance and prices are significantly cheaper, especially for tour passes and equipment rentals.

In the morning, we went to the Gassho-zukuri village to take beautiful photos. Luckily, it was snowing! Snowflakes drifted down, and the entire village was covered in white, like stepping into a fairytale world – breathtakingly beautiful. Although we only had about 2.5 hours, it was quite fulfilling and satisfying for a day trip. In the afternoon, we went to Morigago no Sato to play in the snow. The park was covered in soft, fluffy snow, and we could play on the snowmobiles and sleds as many times as we wanted. We also experienced a super exciting and fun snowmobile ride – the whole family had a blast! Overall, the trip was relaxing and enriching, highly recommended for families with children.

The venue is large, with two restaurants. The 1st floor, closer to the bus parking lot, is for ski lessons (each lesson is about two hours long), and the 2nd floor is for restaurants. The other building has a local product shop and a hot spring pool on the 1st floor, and the 2nd floor rental area near the exit is for snowboard lessons. The 3rd floor is a restaurant, but it closes quite early (around 4:20 pm? But it says it closes at 4:45 pm). Remember to go for dinner early.
