Hida Takayama & Shirakawago Small Group Tour from Nagoya

Arriving in Hida Takayama, your guide will provide you with a tour of the historic Stomach district of Takayama and make sure you don't miss any of the beautiful views. You will then have about one hour of free time to grab lunch, shop for souvenirs, or fill your camera roll with photos of this picturesque town.

Your guide will lead you through the rice paddies and quaint streets that make up this UNESCO World Heritage Site. You will have the opportunity to enter one of the famed thatched-roof houses where your guide will explain the architecture as well as the history (and drama) of life in Edo-era Shirakawa-go. We will also take a short hike up to a lookout point offering a dramatic vista. Your guide will be on hand to take photos to make your friends and family back home jealous of your time in Japan. You will also have some free time to explore at your own pace or sample some of the snacks that are sold along the main street.
