This was a good way to get into the countryside and see the beautiful scenery of the area. Shirakawa was very crowded with tourists but Gokayama was much more authentic. The tour guide spoke in Japanese and another person translated for her. The bus was comfortable and the stops were the right amount of time. The Japanese lunch was very good and would be fine for most western palates.
Perfect! Great guide and good organization

The villages are beautiful, there is time to explore, stops to eat use the toilets, etc! Overall it is very worth it, there is no access by public transport so it is an excellent choice!

A rare example of getting more than you bargained for. The trip itself was superb - left the station promptly, and very nicely narrated. Our tour guide said many interesting things - punctuated with lots of quiet time. Really a nice way to do that. The really special treat was the beautifully presented Japanese style lunch. Excellent, all around.
Great day trip from Kanazawa

Excellent tour. The guide was very helpful but unobtrusive. The villages were wonderful and the time allowed to explore was just right. Lunch was included and was great too.
Got to go

Great experience, both tour guides (Japanese speaking and English) very professional and yet personable. Worth the cost of visiting Shirakawago and Gokayama, including Japanese themed lunch. Note- lunch is Japanese style sitting on ‘tatami mat floors’.

Simply perfect to get to Shirakawa and Ainokura from Kanazawa during the day.Anecdotes and explanations on the bus are precisely given and the advice given is wise. The free neighborhoods are good time to explore this magnificent folk heritage in its own way. Lunch was excellent with Hida beef!
Excellent trip, great Guide and Driver

We had a great day out to Shirakawa-go, we appreciated the helpful hints before arrival on how to make the most of the the time. It was a truly magical little village and well worth the visit. Thank you to our friendly team who got us there safely and are so cheerful. We really enjoyed this trip.

My wife and I have been on many tours in many countries. We’ve always chosen tours having highest ratings, so this tour is no exception. However, upon having it finished, we can say with certainty that this tour is among the best tours we’ve ever been on, if not the best one. The group travels in a bus with both a tour guide who speaks Japanese and very little English and a translator who speaks fluent English. Both are very knowledgeable and informative. Everyone gets the map of the village and very detailed instructions on how to spend your time (what to visit, what to buy, where to go, etc.) the amount of which is more than enough for a comfortable sightseeing. Both places offer beautiful scenery, gorgeous views, and Very unique experience, especially Shirakawa-go which is a real gem. The lunch served in between the visits of the two villages was one of the best of all that we had on any of the previous tours. This tour is a must for those visiting Kanazawa and having an extra day. To summarize: very well deserved five stars!
