What you can expect

Escape the city and experience the charm of Japan’s countryside on this customizable private day tour from Nagoya to Takayama and Shirakawa-go. Perfect for travelers who want a more personal and flexible journey, this tour lets you explore at your own pace with a knowledgeable guide and private transportation.

Begin your day in Takayama, known for its beautifully preserved Edo-period streets, such as Sanmachi Suji, filled with wooden houses, craft shops, and local eateries. Enjoy a relaxing stroll or delve deeper into local culture with optional visits to morning markets or sake breweries.

Next, visit the stunning village of Shirakawa-go, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its traditional gassho-zukuri farmhouses. You’ll have time to explore the village, take panoramic photos from the observation deck, and learn about the history and architecture of this unique mountain community.

This tour is fully customizable — whether you prefer a slower pace, wish to include a specific stop, or need special arrangements (e.g., for families or elderly guests), we’re happy to tailor the experience to your schedule and interests.
