Tsuruma Park tours

A bit of a challenge when looking for the bus parking lot, They should have given a photo from Nagoya Station leading to the meeting point so that we could find it easier. We were very lucky to finally find it, 10 minutes before departure, so we could enjoy the trip.

Highly recommended, our tour guide Maki-san was friendly, educational, and super informative. One of the best guides ever! You can go to Ghibli Park by yourself but that would mean missing out on Maki-san’s hospitality!

all the places we visited are beautiful! we had 2 tour guides - 1 chinese speaker and 1 english speaker. they explained very well the history of each places. The tour also left on time and came back to Nagoya on time

Highly recommended if you want to go to Shirakawa-go. Our tour guide was really helpful and patient in answering our questions. He also shares brief history of the place in 3 different languages!!! (Chinese, English, Japanase).The original itinerary was supposed to be Gujo Hachiman-Takayama-Shirakawago but it was so traffic so he decided and recommended to go first to Takayama (to take our lunch)-Shirakawago-Gujo Hachiman. If we follow the original route it will sunset or already dark once we arrived at Shirakawago and I think it was not ideal to take pictures at night.

We went last 1/15/2024 and we never regretted it! One of best tours we have joined! We were lucky to have experienced snowfall in the Alps! Also, the tour guides Fujisan and the other lady were very very very nice and accomodating! We will book again in the future ❤️

It is a very good tour, very impressive. Traveling to the meeting point is not difficult. Go up to the 4th floor and you will find a counter for easy registration. The guide uses English to provide clear information throughout the trip. Going to each point exactly as scheduled. The stops on the expressway include milk, ice cream, and yogurt, all delicious, as the guide said. Stopped at Takayama. There was a lot of food. There were also brochures recommending famous dishes. When we arrived at Shirakawago we stopped for a delicious meal. Then you can walk around as you please. There is very good privacy. The village lights are on, very beautiful. But we didn't go up to the viewpoint at the top. This was already stated in the tour details from the beginning. You can walk only below the village, 10/10.

the tour is super worth it, though there is a little time to explore the shirakawa-go since this is just a day tour. but thank you for this!

The whole trip was amazing! The Japanese tour guide can speak English really well and fluently. He took care of us with warm reminders and nice attitude. We can play the snow and watch the amazing scene in Shirakawa. The transportation was also very cozy with big leg room for each seat.
