Our guide Ms Shoko and driver Mr Nakanishi are both excellent. They are very polite, informative and helpful. My husband is having problem with his foot, but they are very attentive. Ms Shoko told us the history of Takayama and Shirakawago which is gery impressive to us. Ms Shoko even recommended some nice places to eat. Basically both of us are very happy. Mr Nakanishi and Ms Shoko are the best assets of Snow Monkey travel. Definitely we will recommend them to our friends and relatives. All th best

Our tour guide Shokou was fantastic! She was very informative and knowledgeable about both of the places we went. She also had great food recommendations while we were in Takayama.

We booked a day trip to Takayama /Shirakawa go and it was an absolute amazing one. Our tour guide, Shoko, demonstrates strong communication in English and Mandarin and together with her in-depth knowledge of the area and enthusiasm, has made this trip such a educational and enjoyable one. Though the ride was long, we did not feel bored as she was very engaging. Through her explanation, we can truly appreciate the wisdom of the people who built the Gassho-style houses, their livelihood and culture. Our driver, Iwasaki san, has also made sure our long ride there was a smooth one, checking in to make sure we were comfortable and there were enough restroom break in between. He was accommodative to drop us off at another venue, which was closer to our dining place, though it may be slightly out of the way for him. Overall, Shoko and Iwasaki san have made this day trip such a memorable one for our family.

We did the Nagano to Takayama and Shirakawa-go private tour with our family, 4 families in total. Both locations were beautiful! The bus was very clean and comfortable. Kim, our guide, was cheerful, funny and very knowledgeable about Japanese history and the areas we drove past and visited. She answered our questions patiently, even the curly ones from the kids! She gave great recommendations on places to eat that were delicious and cheaper than others places. We had sufficient time for toilet stops and stretch breaks, and time to eat lunch and look at some souvenir shops. We ended our tour at Kanazawa. Umematsu-San, our driver, was very kind to drop us off close to both of our accommodations, as they couldn't be easily accessed by bus. It was a wonderful and enjoyable experience!

I’d rate this a must do tour. Of course that could be said for any UNESCO site around the world. This is a historic site with only 120 or so homes remaining.

I had the pleasure to travel with Kim, Shoyko and our driver Iwasaki, the three of them made a great team and I thoroughly enjoyed this one day trip! Everyone is so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The other traveler that was suppose to join could not come, so I ended up being the only one on the tour (thanks for accommodating solo travelers instead of cancelling the trip). I think the trip is well planned and it didn’t feel rushed The scenery on the way to Hida Takayama and Shiragawa-go is amazing. Hida beef is a must try! I quizzed Kim and Shinto with lots of questions and they worked so hard to find the answers even if they don’t know. Overall I highly recommend to get out of the city and explore these areas !

This was an amazing small group experience! Both towns were really interesting to see and the guides were excellent at providing historical context for the experience. I would definitely recommend this tour company and this tour. It is a long drive and they are up front about that but worth it for the unique places! For me as well some time in a vehicle was a nice rest after days of walking tours. Excellent day, excellent guides, excellent experience! I will definitely be on the lookout for more tours from this company!
