About This Tour
Embark on an adventure into Japan’s historical core with a private tour of Takayama and Shirakawa-go. These destinations provide a tranquil retreat into the nation’s heritage settings, a world apart from the bustling city life. Explore the vibrant streets and intimate passageways of Takayama, lined by the pristine waters and historic timber-framed houses that reveal the enduring allure of Japanese craftsmanship. Then stroll through Shirakawa-go; a picturesque village famed for its gassho-zukuri (thatched-roof houses) and a living museum of Japan’s rural traditions. This one day tour lead by an English-speaking guide from Nagoya gives you a comprehensive glimpse into the cultural traditions and architectural wonders of Takayama and Shirakawa-go.
