My husband and I booked a 1-day tour from Kanazawa to Takayama via Shirakawago & Gokayama. These picturesque UNESCO World Heritage villages were so beautiful and charming in winter. We had an amazing experience with TK. He was a skilled driver, a knowledgeable guide, and also a professional photographer. He knew all the best photo spots. All our photos turned out amazing. Thank you for the lovely memories captured!!
Great photography with TK at Shirakawago and Gokayama

It was my first time to Shirakawago & Gokoyama and what better way than to have TK take us there as a guide and photographer. TK's photography skills are great and he took the time to get the right shots at the right angles. Having someone knowing the right spots to get really good shots is a bonus as he has done this so many times. We covered both places in a day. TK is highly recommended. Also at the price that he is charging, I think it's great value.
Excellent day!

We had a lovely time on this tour! Our photographer and guide was TK. He was a good driver and kind soul. The villages of Shirakawago and Gokayama were so charming, they stole our hearts! We are so glad we were able to visit and were blessed with fantastic weather! We highly recommend choosing the beef restaurant for lunch, as it was delicious! We received our photos just 2 days later, and are very happy with the whole experience. Thank you TK!

What a magical tour with TK, passionate and professional photographer (guide and driver!). He picked us up in Kanazawa and drove into the gorgeous, verdant mountains and to UNESCO's World Heritage Sites, Shirakawago and Gokayama. TK guided us through the historical villages (and knew residents personally!) and treated us to fun photoshoots! We felt pampered being professionally photographed and not having to worry about taking our own photos. Between the two villages, TK took us to a non-touristy restaurant featuring food we requested. We are thrilled with TK's photos of our visit and especially enjoyed spending time with TK, a very calm, personable and knowledgeable person. I would definitely do this again! TK is highly recommended!
A must see to walk into the past of Japan with TK.

Gokayama & Shirakawago are beautiful and amazing. So peaceful. TK's knowledge of these sites helped us image life in their heyday. And the photoshoot was fun and made us feel important.
Wonderful Shirakawago tour with professional photos!

Wow, what a fun day touring Shirakawago and Gokayama with TK! He picked us up at our ryokan in Takayama right on time in his spotlessly clean and comfortable minivan. The two-hour round trip drive was scenic and pleasant. Of course, the whole point was to see the best sights of Shirakawago and Gokayama and TK really delivered, aided in part by his timing of the itinerary to avoid the biggest crowds. While you might get that with any guide, what makes this tour special is TK's friendly personality and outstanding photography. He absolutely knew the best vantage points, shooting angles, and he composed wonderful photographs of us in the most beautiful, iconic Japanese village settings. Icing on the cake was the great restaurant he picked out for lunch. All in all, a superb day with TK. I highly recommend him.
Unforgettable Photo Tour of Shirakawa-go & Gokayama – Highly Recommend TK Photography!

I highly recommend booking a tour with TK Photography if you're planning a trip to Shirakawa-go and Gokayama. Since private tours weren’t available on the days I was in Kanazawa, I decided to book with TK—and I’m so glad I did! Hiring a private driver for the day would have cost about the same, so I figured why not get a free photography session included? The booking process was seamless. TK responded promptly to all my questions and even shared his WhatsApp to ensure smooth communication. He picked us up directly from the airport, and the drive through the mountains was absolutely stunning—winding roads with breathtaking lake views along the way. One of the biggest perks of this tour was avoiding the crowds you'd typically encounter on big group bus tours. TK shared interesting stories and background information about the traditional gassho-zukuri houses, which made the experience even more meaningful. My husband is an avid photography enthusiast, and TK took the time to point out the best photo spots and lighting angles. For lunch, he brought us to a small local soba shop—simple, delicious, and authentic. TK’s photography was fantastic. He captured beautiful moments with stunning scenery in the background—far better than anything I could have managed with selfies. We now have keepsake photos that really reflect the magic of the place. TK also offers flexible options if you want to be picked up from Kanazawa and dropped off in a different nearby town, which is great if you're planning to explore the region more extensively. After this experience, I’m already thinking of coming back with my kids to take family portraits in this beautiful part of Japan. Truly a memorable and worthwhile tour!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our family photography tour of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama. Our photographer TK was not only incredibly talented-capturing stunning images of our family in these picturesque UNESCO World Heritage villages-but also deeply knowledgeable about the history and culture of each location, which made the day even more memorable. Traveling with an 18-month-old can be challenging, but TK went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, making sure we felt comfortable throughout the day. He was patient, flexible with our requests, and even helped us with some simple poses, ensuring we got the best possible photos while keeping things relaxed and fun for our little one. The private vehicle was spacious and comfortable, making the journey between locations smooth and enjoyable. We appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the child seat provided and the attention to our comfort during the drive. Overall, we highly recommend this tour for families or anyone looking to capture beautiful memories in Shirakawa-go and Gokayama. The combination of expert photography, local insight, and warm hospitality made this an unforgettable highlight of our trip!

This tour was very nice. Takatoshi-san is friendly, the car is comfortable - the carseat provided for my son was a very handy, included option. The photos came out great as well!
