Very satisfied with this trip! The tour guide gave a very detailed introduction and prepared a lot of recommended information, including all the tourist attractions that should be visited! Because it’s a long journey, I’m glad I bought a one-day tour and there’s a tour bus available! Gassho Village is really beautiful in winter, but be careful as the stone bridge is frozen and it will be very slippery and difficult to walk on. Purchasing a lunch-included itinerary ensures that you will have lunch, otherwise it will be a bit rushed and it will be difficult to line up to the restaurant due to the large number of people. Very satisfied with this trip👍

The time arrangement was very good. The tour leader Xiao Gu was very polite. He introduced us to the itinerary attractions and restaurants in detail in the car. On the way back, he also introduced Nagoya and recommended local restaurants. He was very polite and professional!

Entrance was a breeze. no need to line up at the ticket booth. just show your QR at the ticket entrance. Been to several castles in japan but this is the first time we couldnt access the castle's interior (under renovation or ongoing construction). there was an extension where the museum displays were placed and a reconstruction of the main house. Overall, the experience was underwhelming but okay.

As a family of three, we had an amazing time at the Port of Nagoya Aquarium. The variety of marine life on display kept us all engaged—our 3-year-old was fascinated by the dolphins!

It was my first time to go to Shirakawa-go in winter with beautiful scenery and another experience. The tour guide was super attentive and prepared every step of the way, which made our trip feel at ease.

Yes, there are many marine animals to see inside, and the dolphin show is also quite exciting ~ Even on weekends, there are not too many people, so it is easy to have fun
