Spend a full day exploring the timeless mountain town of Takayama on this private, fully guided tour led by a government-licensed guide, with your own private vehicle and driver. Tucked in the Hida region of the Japan Alps, Takayama is famed for its superbly preserved Edo-era streets, sake breweries and lively festivals. Begin at Takayama Jinya, Japan's last surviving Edo-period government house, then wander the dark-timbered merchant lanes of Sanmachi Suji and the bustling Miyagawa morning market. Explore the open-air farmhouses of Hida no Sato, visit the forested Sakurayama Hachimangu Shrine, and admire the gilded floats at the Festival Floats Exhibition Hall. Stroll the peaceful Higashiyama temple trail and pause at the photogenic red Nakabashi Bridge over the Miyagawa River. With hotel pickup, a flexible customizable route and an expert local guide, you'll uncover the best of Takayama at a relaxed pace.
