Traveler reviews
Great day trip!
Yasushi was very kind, knowledgeable, and explained everything we needed. Provided us with helpful maps and shared a lot of his knowledge in a very professional way.
Nice tour and great service
Yasushi was one of the best guides I've been with through the years taking walking tours. He's cheerfull, full of energy and gave a lot of information about Shirakawa-go ,and even food reccomendations in Kanazawa. He heard I've lost my wallet in one of the local houses, called the family who lived there and ran to get it back😭.
Highly recommend
An enjoyable tour. Our guide Yasushi san was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We were given bits of relevant history about Japan and the local area to fill time on our way which was well received. Highly recommend.
I recommend this trip
Yasushi is an incredible guide with a deep love for sharing information and history about Japan. The tour of shirakawago was really nice and interesting, we had time to wander around, visit a typical house and taste the local food.
