You will travel by bus from Nagoya, with a bilingual guide who spoke both English & Chinese who will make the journey fun and informative.

Marvel at the charm and beauty of Hida Takayama, also known as “Little Kyoto of Hida”. Wander through the old streets that have the vibe of the Edo period, and visit the Miyagawa Morning Market, one of the three major morning markets in Japan, where you can find all kinds of local delicacies and handcrafts.

Be amazed by the picturesque scenery of Shirakawa-go, famous for its gassho-style houses. These are traditional farmhouses with steep thatched roofs that look like hands in prayer.
