Walking Tour with Yogi

Published on May, 2025

Yogi our guide gave us a really informative and interesting day walking around Hida-Furukawa. A beautiful city of traditional houses and canals, with wonderful temples. We thoroughly enjoyed the Festival Museum with the floats and Rousing Drums. The sake tasting and weaving made for a really fun day. All in all a great day. Thank you.

Great tour! A must do in Takayama.

Published on Apr, 2025

We had a really great tour with Yogi! If you are coming to Takayama, this is the tour you definitely want to do. We have done many day tours in many countries over the last few years and this is one of our favorites. We learned so much from Yogi and enjoyed spending the day with him. The town is so interesting and learning about the annual festival was just wonderful. Yogi even helped us find a restaurant for dinner and made a reservation for us. It was an incredible meal. All in all 5 stars plus. Highly recommend this tour.

Authentic Japan!

The koi carp and the regular carp was an amazing experience being able to see them in the canals was a dream come true so being able to feed them was even better (the other stuff was goo to)

Engaging and interesting day

Published on Apr, 2025

This was a great day trip, well organised and paced. Our guide was interesting and knowledgeable and made the day fun and engaging. The weaving was fun plus the candle shop and the interactive museums. Definitely recommend
