Vé di động

Hidden high in the mountains of central Japan, far from the hustle and bustle of metropolises like Tokyo and Osaka, lie the quaint and well-preserved townscapes of Takayama and Shirakawa-go. Once a direct land holding of the Shogun, Takayama will enthrall you with its beautiful woodwork and traditional streets that offer a more relaxed beauty than cities such as Kyoto and Kanazawa. Shirakawa-go, on the other hand, offers a great example of the village-life experienced by Japanese farmers of ages past, and still experienced today by those lucky few who call it their home. Led by a locally-based and English-speaking guide, this experience will enthrall you with visions of life in Japan during an era very different from our own.

Had a great day with Hemy. Having a guide imparting knowledge and explaining things is great, and Hemy is really good a that. If I could change anything, I would have like a bit more time in shirakawa go, but the tour was great anyway.
Refreshing and colorful Shirakawago experience

Excellent itinerary from start to finish. Seeing the government office was very interesting with rich history and experiencing local cuisine with the morning markets was tasty. Shirakawago itself is breathtaking during this time of year and we were fortunate enough to see the lovely autumn colors. Hemi is a wonderful guide who struck the right balance of being relaxed and flexible, but also adhering to a schedule so that everyone could enjoy the tour. We will definitely be booking another tour with him and Snow Monkey in the future when we return to Japan!
Great day with our lad, Hemi

In the morning a tour with guide Hemi through Takayama. Learned a lot from Hemi about life back then. Then to the Unesco villages of Shirakawago (just like Boertange and Giethoorn). A traditional village in the Japanese Alps, famous for its old farms. Shirakawago is quite crowded especially by many Japanese. It is really beautiful in the valley surrounded by the mountains that are now green, yellow and orange red. Thank you Hemi for this nice and educational day.
Great trip in and around Takayams

I really enjoyed the tour with Hemi. The tour in the history of Takayama Jin‘ya was most interesting and we got a lot of background history during the walk in the old town. Also the visit to Shirakawa with the magnificent autumn leaves was very informative

Educational and informative tour. We were in Takayama for two days and are glad we chose this tour. Our guide gave an expert tour of the old town and historic Jinya. Then a comfortable taxi bus to Shinagawa, with another beautiful circular walk between the historic houses overlooking mountains in autumn colors. This is a must!
