All Reviews for Japan Autumn Tours 2024

The bus was mostly filled with 25 Chinese tourists besides us, and due to the heavy snow, we couldn't see Mount Aso. Walking to the hot springs was difficult in the snow, but the only highlight was Kumamoto Castle, which was great! I want to go again in the summer next time!

バスは私たち以外は25名中国人ばかりだし大雪だし阿蘇山は見えないし温泉は雪の中歩かさられるし、唯一熊本城はよかったです！次回は夏に行きたいです！

The weather was favorable, making for an enjoyable trip. The morning gathering was a bit hectic, and since most of the participants were international tourists, I felt a little anxious. However, the round trip from Nagoya was mostly free of traffic, which was stress-free. It was also fortunate that the person sitting next to me had to cancel at the last minute, allowing me to use the seat more comfortably. I heard that if you participate alone or in an odd number, there is a possibility of sharing a seat.

天候にも恵まれ楽しい旅行となりました。
朝の集合はバタバタしていて海外の観光客が大半を占めていた事もあり少し不安でしたが、名古屋からの行き帰りは渋滞もほとんどなくストレスもなかったです。
たまたま隣の席の方が急遽欠席になった事もあり座席も広く使えた事も幸運でした。
1人又は奇数の人数で参加される場合は相席になる可能性があるそうです。

There were only my daughter and me as Japanese participants. Aside from one family from an English-speaking country, the rest were users from Chinese-speaking regions, but we had more than enough fun.

The guide was trilingual and always followed up with me and another group who didn't understand Chinese in Japanese and English, so I was able to trust the tour completely and feel at ease.

The timing was just right, and I enjoyed the peace of mind that comes with a bus tour. It was very helpful that they shared local specialties and recommendations.

Some people might feel a bit hesitant about mingling with foreigners, but I had a great time, so I highly recommend it.

My elementary school daughter also had a lot of fun and was able to spend the time with a smile! Thank you very much.

日本人参加者は私と娘だけ。
あと英語圏のご家族1組を除けば、あとは中国圏の利用者のみでしたが、十分以上に楽しめました。

ガイドの方はトリリンガルで中国語を理解できない私ともう1組にも日本語や英語でいつもフォローして下さいまして、ずっと安心してツアーをお任せできました。

時間設定もちょうどよく、バスツアーならではのお任せできる安心感で楽しく参加できました。
各所の名物やおすすめを教えてくださるのも大変助かりました。


外国人の中に混じるのは少し抵抗感があるかたも少なくないかも知れませんが、とても楽しめましたのでオススメです。

小学生の娘も楽しかった！と笑顔で過ごすことができました。
ありがとうございました。

I participated alone. I was a bit anxious, but the guide was very accommodating, and I was satisfied with the efficient sightseeing.

【Meeting Place】The location was easy to find. It seemed that three groups gathered at the same place, so it was a bit unclear which guide to approach.
【Participants】The large bus was almost full, with about 10 Japanese participants. The ratio of Japanese seemed higher than usual. The atmosphere in the bus was generally quiet, except for the English-speaking group at the back who chatted the whole time. Well, it can't be helped.
【Guide】The guide communicated in Chinese, Japanese, and English. The microphone was not working well, so they explained in their natural voice. It was unfortunate that it was hard to hear due to the distance. However, when I asked later, they provided additional information politely, so there were no issues.
【Sightseeing Time】Since it was a weekday, we didn't get caught in major traffic and stayed on schedule. In Takayama, I enjoyed Hida beef steak and sake, so I didn't have enough time. If we had an extra 30 minutes, I could have relaxed more.

1人で参加しました。少し不安でしたが、ガイドの方の対応も良く、効率的に観光でき満足です。

【集合場所】場所はわかりやすい。同じ場所に3グループ集合だったようで、どのガイドに声をかけて良いかわかりにくかった。
【参加者】大型バスはほぼ満席。うち日本人10名程度。いつもより日本人比率は高いようでした。車中は概ね静か。後ろの英語圏の方が終始おしゃべり。まあ仕方がありません。
【ガイド】中国語、日本語、英語で対応。マイクの調子が悪く地声で説明。距離があり聞き取りにくかったのが残念。後で尋ねると丁寧に補足があり問題なし。
【観光時間】平日なので大きな渋滞に巻き込まれることもなく予定通り。高山では飛騨牛ステーキと日本酒を堪能したため時間が足りませんでした。あと30分あるとゆっくり出来たかも。

I applied for this tour after learning that I could visit Shirakawa-go, which I had always wanted to see, on a day trip from Nagoya. It seemed to be a popular tour as it was fully booked, and the tour guide sat in the auxiliary seat next to the driver.

Most of the participants were from China, with a few others from different countries, and there were only a few Japanese people. The tour guide provided explanations in Japanese, Chinese, and English, which was reassuring with their polite and fluent Japanese.

The itinerary included about two hours in Takayama and two hours of free time in Shirakawa-go, which was nice as there was a decent amount of time for exploration despite it being a longer trip. The snowy streets of Takayama were very lovely! It was drizzling in Shirakawa-go, but the snowy scenery from the observation deck was magnificent, making it feel like I was wandering through a fairy tale, fulfilling my dream. I think this is a great tour for travelers with limited time, allowing them to compactly explore Hida Takayama and Shirakawa-go!

一度行ってみたいとずっと思っていた白川郷に名古屋から日帰りで行けると知ってこのツアーに申し込みました。人気のツアーのようで満席、添乗員さんはドライバーさんの隣の補助席に座られてました。
ほぼ中国の方で、あとは数人他の外国の方、日本人は数名でしたが、添乗員さんは日本語、中国語、英語の3か国語で説明してくれました。丁寧で流暢な日本語で安心でした。
行程は、高山で2時間ぐらい、白川郷で2時間ぐらいの自由時間で、遠出の割には散策の時間もまあまああって良かったです。
雪の舞い散る高山の街はとても素敵でした！白川郷では小雨でしたが、展望台からの雪景色も素晴らしく、御伽の国を散策しているみたいで夢が叶いました。あまり時間がない旅行者が、コンパクトに飛騨高山、白川郷を巡れる良いツアーだと思います！

As everyone has mentioned, this is a tour aimed at foreign visitors from Asia. Since it's a day trip to Takachiho, there’s no wasted time, and we don’t stop at souvenir shops, which allows us to fully enjoy the local experience. There were three Japanese people, including myself and a friend. Most of the participants were from Taiwan, and Chinese was the main language spoken, but important points and simple explanations were provided in Japanese for the three of us. The driver also engaged with us during breaks, which was reassuring. The foreign participants were very quiet, and it seemed that everyone had signed up individually, which was polite. It was a strange experience to have a guide speaking Chinese in Japan. The meals were good, and there were no people drinking alcohol, which helped keep us on schedule. Since it’s quite a walking tour, wearing comfortable sneakers is advisable. I would love to participate again. Thank you to the guide and driver on January 17th.

皆さんが書いてある通り、アジア系の外国の方向きのツアーです。日帰りで高千穂旅行なので、無駄もなくお土産屋さんなどよらず現地時間をとられいます。日本人は私と、友人と、もう一人いらっしゃいました。台湾のかたが多く中国語がメインでしたが、大事なことや、簡単な説明は日本語で3人集めてお話してくれましたし、運転手のかたも休憩の時話しかけてくれたり安心でした。同乗されている外国の方もとても静かで皆さん個人で申し込まれているようで、礼儀正しかったです。日本なのにガイドが、中国語なので不思議な体験が、出来ました。食事もアルコール飲んでいる人もおらず時間も守っていて良かったです。かなり歩くツアーなので履き慣れた運動靴が良いですよ。また参加したいツアーでした。1/17の担当のガイドさん、運転手さんありがとうございました。

I wanted to visit Takachiho Gorge and the surrounding shrines, but I was considering how inconvenient transportation would be without a car. Then I found this tour, which had a great schedule and content, so I decided to join.

Although it was an inbound tour, the guide was knowledgeable about Japanese language and history, and was very friendly. I participated alone, but I was able to chat along the way and really enjoyed the tour.

For lunch, we ate at a charming restaurant with a thatched roof, serving a variety of beautiful and delicious dishes, which left me very satisfied!

Takachiho Gorge had a stunning contrast between the deep green water and the waterfalls. I had seen many photos, but the power and grandeur that can only be experienced on-site was truly moving.

The last stop, Amano Iwato Shrine, was a place I really wanted to visit. It was a very clean and pure location, and just being there and praying felt like it cleared my heart!

I had such a great time that I would love to join the same course again. Thank you for the enjoyable and moving memories!

高千穂峡と周辺の神社に行きたかったのですが、車がないと回り切るには交通が不便で思案していた所、こちらのツアーが日程も内容も良かったので参加させて頂きました。

インバウンド向けのツアーではありましたが、ガイドさんも日本語や歴史に精通していてとても気さくな方で、1人で参加しましたが道中お話させて頂いて楽しくツアーを回る事ができて楽しかったです。

ランチも茅葺き屋根の建物がある雰囲気のあるご飯屋さんで、品数が多く見栄えのする美味しいご飯で大満足でした！

高千穂峡は深い深緑の水の色合いと滝のコントラストが見事で、写真では散々見ましたが現地でないと体感出来ない迫力や壮大さがあって大感動。

最後の天岩戸神社は本当に行きたかった所で、とても空気のキレイな清浄な場所で伺って祈るだけで心が現れる様でした！

とても楽しかったので、同じコースでもう一回参加したいくらいです。楽しく感動的な思い出を有難うございました！

I wanted to go to Shirakawa-go, so I stayed in Kanazawa the night before and participated in a bus tour alone from the morning. I was too eager and mistakenly arrived at the meeting place an hour early, finding no one there, which left me in shock. As soon as I checked my email, I realized I had come too early and spent some time in the station. After that, I was able to board the bus at the correct meeting time. Since I was participating alone, a foreign man (maybe from Taiwan?) sat next to me on the bus, which was a bit uncomfortable. However, he wasn't noisy, so I felt relieved. The tour guide provided detailed explanations about the sights and what souvenirs to buy while looking at the map on the bus, which was very easy to understand. It was a day with a lot of snow after a heavy snowfall, so the guide pointed out areas where the snow had melted and turned into water, as well as places that were deep in snow and difficult to walk through, which helped us navigate efficiently. There were many foreign guests, so an interpreter was on board to explain the tour guide's Japanese explanations in detail in English. It was also a fun way to practice my English. I understood well the quiet and calm charm of Gokayama compared to Shirakawa-go thanks to the tour guide's explanations. Throughout the itinerary, both the tour guide and the driver were very kind, always checking in with us, which made the experience pleasant. I felt safe participating alone. I was able to see the snow-covered Shirakawa-go that I had always wanted to see, and I was overwhelmed with emotion.

白川郷へ行きたくて金沢前泊し、朝からバスツアーに一人で参加しました。はりきり過ぎて時間を1時間早く集合場所に間違えて行ってしまい、誰もいなくて茫然としました。すぐメールを確認したところ、早く来てしまったことが解り、駅の中で時間をつぶしました。その後無事集合時間にバスに乗れました。一人参加だったので、バスのお席、隣りに知らない外国人男性が座り（台湾の人？）ちょっと嫌だったかな？　でも特に騒いだりする人でなく安心できました。添乗員さんが行きのバスの中で地図を見ながら、見どころやお土産に何を買ったらいいのかなど詳しく説明して下さってとても解りやすかったです。雪がたくさん降った後のお天気の日だったので、雪が解けて水になって流れている所や、雪深く歩きにくい所など、注意箇所を教えて下さり、おかげで効率よく回ることができました。外国人客が多かったので通訳の人が乗っていて、添乗員さんの日本語の説明を詳しく英語で説明されていました。英語の勉強にもなって楽しかったです。五箇山の、白川郷に比べて静かで落ち着いた良さも添乗員さんの説明でよく理解できました。行程ずっと添乗員さんも運転手さんもともて親切で、いつも声かけして下さり、気持ち良く回ることができました。一人でも安心して参加できました。ずっと見たかった雪の白川郷を見ることができ、感無量でした。

一郎さんは非常にプロフェッショナルで、京都についての知識も豊富でした。さらに、彼の英語スキルも素晴らしかったです。彼が素晴らしい仕事をしてくれたことを称賛したいです。京都に戻る際には、また彼にお願いしたいと思います。

Ichiro-san was very professional and extremely knowledgeable about Kyoto. Additionally, his English skills were excellent. I want to commend him for doing such a great job. Whenever I come back to Kyoto I will ask for him again.

traveled with parents, personally the travel spots in the itinerary is just average for me. Anyway, would like to thank driver and tour guide as we needed to board Shinkansen at 8 pm so they really managed the time for us to catch up with the train.

I didn't confirm enough, but it seems the tour I participated in was aimed at Chinese tourists, as the guide's explanations were in Chinese. Therefore, the explanations in Japanese were minimal, and I wasn't fully satisfied with the experience. Since Japanese was the third language for me, that aspect reduced my enjoyment.

確認不足だったが参加したツアーは中国の方向けのツアーだったらしく添乗員の方の説明が中国語だった為日本語での説明は最低限でせっかくの体験も今ひとつ満足がいかなかった。日本語は第3言語だったのでその部分で楽しみが半減した。

The time allocation and meals were excellent. However, I understood that it was a tour mainly for foreigners, but all the announcements were in Chinese. I was in a situation where I didn't understand the attractions, meeting points, or times, and when I asked, they only provided the time. If there had been pamphlets for Japanese people or announcements in English, I think I would have enjoyed it much more.

時間配分、食事
申し分なしで、とても良かったです
しかし、
外人メインのツアーとは分かって居ましたが、案内が全て中国語
観光地の魅力や集合場所、時間など、分からない状態で、こちらが聞いたら
時間のみ教えてくれる状況でした。日本人向けにパンフレット、もしくは英語での案内さえあれば、もっと楽しめたと思います

Thanks to our guide and the wonderful driver, we had a great day. It was very good that we were able to visit the snowy Shirakawa-go first, based on accurate judgments regarding the weather and the congestion at our destination. I hope that the snowy Shirakawa-go was enjoyable for our overseas guests as well.

ガイドさんと、素敵な運転手さんのおかげで楽しい一日になりました。天候や目的地の混雑状況から的確な判断で雪の白川郷から先に観光できて大変良かったです。雪の白川郷を海外の方にも楽しんでいただけたのではないでしょうか。

I had prepared myself for a one-star experience, but it turned out to be just fine. The main language was Chinese, and all the explanations were in that language as well, but I had checked the websites of the places we visited, so it was totally okay not to understand everything. As long as I knew the meeting place and time, it was no different from a Japanese tour.

For this price, I thought the content was definitely worth it. We were taken to various places, which felt like a good deal. Each stop was relaxed, allowing us time to buy souvenirs and take bathroom breaks. I was glad it wasn't a tight schedule.

The guide was also very kind, so there were no issues at all.

星１つの体験談を見ていたので、覚悟していきました(どんな？)
メインは中国語で、説明とかも全部そうでしたが、行く先々のホームページは見ていたので、なくても全然OKでした。集合場所と時間だけ分かれば、日本人ツアーと対して変わりません。
この金額で、この内容は、全然アリだと思いました。色々連れていってもらえて、お得でした。各々、時間もゆったりでしたので、お土産を買ったりトイレによったりできました。タイトなスケジュールではなくて良かったです。
ガイドの方も、優しい対応でしたので、問題ありませんでした。

On the bus tour that included lunch, we were able to visit not only Shirakawa-go but also Takayama. In Takayama, there was a shop where we could sample sake using a coin-operated server, which was really great.

昼食込のバスツアーで白川郷だけでなく飛騨高山も観光できました。
飛騨高山ではコインサーバーで日本酒の試飲ができるお店がありとてもよかったです。

I was surprised to see that most of the tour participants were foreigners, but I was able to efficiently visit and enjoy Takayama and Shirakawa-go. There wasn't much guidance on the highlights during the ride, so I think it would be better to research the sightseeing spots you want to visit in advance.

外国の方たちが大半のツアーでびっくりしましたが、高山、白川郷を効率よく廻れ楽しめました。車内での見どころに関するガイドはあまりありませんでしたので、事前に廻りたい観光スポットを下調べしておいた方が良いと思いました。

On my first trip from Hokkaido to Kyushu, there were only my sisters and me, but the tour guide was very considerate, and I made wonderful memories. It was a lot of fun.

初めて北海道から九州の旅で日本人は姉妹だけでしたが添乗員さんがとても気遣ってくれて
とても良い思い出が出来楽しかったです。

I participated in a day trip to Shirakawa-go on December 23rd. There was a news story on the 21st about the first snowfall in Shirakawa-go, and I was surprised to learn that there hadn't been any snow until then! I had assumed there would be snow, but thanks to the heavy snowfall on the 21st and 22nd, I was able to see that beautiful scenery.

12/23に白川郷日帰りツアーに参加しました。
21日のニュースで白川郷の初雪の話題が出て雪今まで無かったのか！当然雪はあるものだと思っていたが21.22の大雪であの風景を見る事が出来ました。

The guide spoke very little Japanese, and there was a lack of information. Communication was difficult due to their broken Japanese, which caused a lot of trouble. They mostly explained things in Chinese and spent a lot of time on their Instagram and talking on the phone with friends. The worst part was that the driver was completely exhausted from driving back and was dozing off, making it feel like we were about to have an accident. Even when I told the guide, they didn't do anything or seemed to understand the situation well. I believe this tour will become a major problem in the future. It wasn't just me; other customers felt the same way. It's disappointing because both the guide and the driver were really nice people. It’s probably the company's fault.

ガイドさんが日本語をほとんど喋れず、インフォメーションが足りません。カタコトの日本語なのでコミュニケーションが取れずに大変困りました。ほとんど中国語で説明していて、社内でガイドさんはずーっと自身のインスタ制作と友だちとの電話に時間を費やしていました。最悪だったのは、運転手が完全に帰りの運転に疲れ果てていて、コックリ運転で、事故に会いそうだったことです。ガイドさんに言っても、何もしてくれないと言うか、よくわかっていませんでした。きっと、将来的には大問題になるツアーだと思います。私だけではなく、他のお客さんも同意見でした。ガイドさんも運転手さんもとてもいい人だったので、残念です。多分会社が悪いんですね。

Whenever I go to Arashiyama, I always take a boat ride down the Hozu River and then enjoy walking around and eating in Arashiyama. It's so much fun, and I recommend it especially during the autumn foliage and cherry blossom seasons as it's beautiful. You might get a little wet. There are no restrooms for about two hours, so make sure to go before you start.

いつも嵐山行く時は必ず保津川下りしてそのまま嵐山で食べ歩きします。めっちゃ楽しいし紅葉シーズンや桜のシーズンはきれいなのでおすすめ。若干濡れます。トイレは2時間ぐらい行けないので必ず行っておくこと

The tour guides are funny and professional; it's a nice trip.

The tour guilds are funny and professional , its a nice trip

It was my first experience of the Hozu River boat ride. It lasted a full two hours. It seems like it was a bit early for the autumn leaves. I enjoyed various views from the river. Along the way, we got splashed with water, and it was quite a fun activity.

初めての保津川下り体験でした。たっぷり2時間。紅葉にはちょっと早かった様です。川からの色んな景色を楽しめました。途中、水がかかったり、なかなか楽しいアクティビティでした。

There were about 20 participants, including myself as the only Japanese, a Korean parent and child, and the rest were Chinese (including the guide). Instead of a sightseeing bus, we departed in three HiAce vans from a taxi company. We were informed that there would be no restroom breaks for the first two hours, so we headed towards Kumamoto Castle. Once we arrived, there was immediately a restroom break, and after receiving our entrance tickets, we had free time. Overall, everyone seemed to share similar impressions as the reviews suggested. Indeed, compared to Japanese travel companies, they might be slightly less efficient, but considering the public transportation is inconvenient around Aso, if you view it as transportation and lunch costs, I had no particular complaints.

By the way, since the participation date was just before a holiday, we returned an hour late due to heavy traffic. (Later, when I spoke with other travel companies, they mentioned that the traffic on that day was quite severe.) If you have a flight to catch, please be cautious.

参加は、日本人は自分だけ、韓国人親子、あとは中国人(ガイドさんも)の約20名。観光バスではなく、タクシー会社のハイエース3台で出発。2時間まではトイレ休憩なしとのことで、熊本城へ向かいました。着いたら、すぐトイレ時間があり、入場券をもらったら、その後は自由行動。概ね、皆さんが口コミ通りの感想です。たしかに、日本の旅行会社と比較すると、若干手際が悪いかも知れませんが、阿蘇のあたりは公共交通機関が不便なので、交通費+ランチ代と割り切っていれば、特に不満はありません。
ちなみに、参加日が祝日前で帰りがすごい渋滞で1時間遅れの帰着でした。(後日、他の旅行会社さんと話したところ、この日の渋滞はすごかったと話題になっていたそうです。)飛行機の時間がある方などはご注意を。

During the peak of autumn leaves in Kyoto, I pondered where to go on a Saturday and decided to book a ride on the Hozu River, thinking it would allow me to enjoy a less crowded experience. The result was a great success; I immersed myself in a leisurely time while admiring the colorful autumn leaves along both banks of the river. Although the water level was low, resulting in a two-hour ride—double the usual time—it was still delightful, with the sounds of waterfowl and the humorous commentary from the boatmen making it an unforgettable experience. I am very grateful to the crew for their kindness and commitment to safety. I would love to take a ride again during cherry blossom season.

京都紅葉の真っ盛り、しかも土曜日何処に行こうかと思案したなか、保津川下りを予約すれば混雑に紛れない時間を過ごせるのではと申し込みました。結果は大成功、保津川両岸に色付く紅葉を目にしながら、ゆったりとした時間に浸りました。水かさが少ないという事で通常の倍の2時間という乗船でしたが、それもなお可というか水鳥の囀りと船頭さん達のユーモア溢れる解説やらで時を忘れるほどの心地良さでした。親切かつ安全第一で案内していただいた船乗りの皆さんには大感謝です。桜の頃も乗船したいと思いました。

I took a boat ride during this year's autumn foliage season (November 26). According to the boatman, the water level was low due to a water shortage, causing the boat's bottom to hit rocks, which created a loud noise that was a bit frightening, but it also added to the thrill. Despite the low water volume, there was a sense of speed, and I almost got splashed several times, desperately guarding myself with a plastic sheet. The autumn leaves were beautiful, and along the way, we encountered a trolley train, waving enthusiastically at each other. I would love to take another ride at a different time in the future. The boatman mentioned that the water volume is higher in March and April, which is his favorite time of year.

今年の紅葉時期(11月26日)に乗船しました。
船頭さんのお話では水不足で水位が低いので船底に岩が当たるのでゴンゴンと音がするとの事で少し恐怖感がありましたが、返ってスリルも増しました。水量が少ないとの事でしてがスピード感もあり何度も水しぶきがかかりそうになり必死でビニールシートでガードしました。
紅葉は綺麗でしたし途中ではトロッコ列車にも会え乗客同士で手を大きく振合いました。
いつかまた違う時期に乗船したいと思いました。
船頭さんは曰く3～4月は水量が多く自分は一番好きな時期とのこと。

On the last Sunday of November, due to the high season, my reservation for 9 AM was canceled about four weeks in advance. Not wanting to give up, I managed to successfully rebook for 9 AM about two weeks ago, which was a relief.

It seems that slots that were previously unavailable are now opening up at the last minute, so it might be worth checking frequently. Although you are asked to arrive 15 minutes before your reservation time, there is a shop in the waiting area where you can eat and drink, and there are spacious, warm benches to sit on, so arriving early shouldn't be a problem.

You can bring food and drinks onto the boat, so you can enjoy snacks while calculating restroom breaks. The travel time by boat seems to vary depending on the river's water level. If it's not winter, there is a shop on the boat towards the end where you can also get warm food.

We happened to see a monkey, which made my child very happy. We enjoyed the autumn leaves while being entertained by the fun talks of the three boatmen. If I have the chance again, I will definitely come back!

11月最終週の日曜日ハイシーズンの為、4週間程前に朝イチの９時からの予約が一旦キャンセルとなってしまいました。諦めきれず2週間程前に9時を無事予約が完了してホッとしました。
ギリギリになって今まで空いていない枠が開く様なのでこまめにチェックもありかも。
予約時間の15分前を指定されますが待合室の中に売店があり飲食できる広くて温かいベンチに座りつつ食べるスペースがあるので早めに到着しても困らないかと。
船に飲食物持参可能なのでトイレを計算しつつ飲み食いしながら楽しめます。川の水量によって船での移動時間が変わる模様。冬季でなければ終盤に船の売店があるのでそこでも温かい物が食べられます。
猿とたまたま会えたので子供がとても喜んでました。
紅葉を楽しみながら船頭さん３人の楽しいトークに引き込まれました。また機会があればお世話になります!

The boatman’s paddling skills and enthusiasm are truly amazing! The scenery met my expectations. If you come to Kyoto, I recommend the riverboat ride just a short walk from Kameoka Station. The boat ride is thrilling yet relaxing, and once you reach the dock near Togetsukyo Bridge, enjoy some herring soba, visit the Kamo Shrine, then head into the crowds for a stroll through the bamboo grove and to enjoy the autumn leaves. It’s a packed itinerary! I’ll be going again in spring.

船頭さん、漕ぐ技術と盛り上げと、ホントスゴイ!景観も期待通り。京都に来たなら、亀岡駅から歩いて直ぐの川下りがオススメ。舟はスリルとまったり、渡月橋近くの桟橋着いたらニシン蕎麦食べて、御髪神社参拝して、人混みへ、竹林散策と紅葉狩り、もりもりコースです。次は春に行きます。

I had always wanted to visit Hida Takayama and Shirakawa-go. I hesitated to plan it myself due to time and transportation, but during my stay in Nagoya, I was able to go there for a day trip and enjoyed it efficiently.

飛騨高山にも白川郷にも一度行ってみたいと思ってました。自分達で予定するには時間や交通手段でちゅうちょしてましたが、名古屋滞在中に日帰りで行くことができ、効率よく楽しめました。

I was able to fully enjoy the World Heritage site of Shirakawa-go, which is difficult to access individually, including my free time. I would like to come again during the snowy season!

個人ではアクセスしがたい世界遺産の白川郷を自由時間を含め、満喫することができました。今度は雪の積もった時期に来たいと思います！

For someone like me who doesn't own a car, being able to take a bus for a day trip was a significant advantage. I was concerned that visiting two places might leave us with too little time, but even with lunch, we were able to take our time and thoroughly enjoy the experience, which left me very satisfied.

The guide shared engaging stories with a touch of humor, making the tour enjoyable. (They were bilingual in Japanese and English.) I also want to thank the driver for their safe driving.

It's a pity that the weather wasn't favorable this time, but I hope to visit again when the snow is piled up.

車を持たない私には、バスで日帰りで行けるのが大きなポイントとなりました。2箇所回るとなると、滞在時間が短いのでは、と思いましたが、昼食をとってもゆっくりと見ることができ、大満足しました。

ガイドさんは、興味を惹きつけられるお話に、ユーモアを混じえてご案内くださりました。（日英バイリンガルの方でした）そして安全に運転してくださったドライバーさんにも感謝です。

今回は天気に恵まれなかったのが残念ですが、次回は雪が積もるころ訪れてみたいと思います。
