Nagoya Tour Reviews

Wonderful Takayama & Shinhotaka Ropeway experience

Our family of 3 really enjoyed our trip from Nagoya - Takayama -Shinhotaka Ropeway with Hiro San as our guide. He drove us around safe and smoothly. He is a very nice guy and is flexible to our schedule since we have our 10 year old son with us. Our son also had a good time with him.:) Hiro San speaks English fluently so it is easy for us to communicate with him. We have also tried the local restaurants which are like hidden spots only for locals and we love them, hida beefs are amazing! Overall experience is good and my son told me to give Hiro san 5 star rating! Thank you for taking care of our family, Hiro San.

Varinrampai P.

It was my pleasure guiding your family, and I myself had a wonderful time! I hope to see you again! Please take care and have a wonderful trip in Japan. Wishing your family the best of luck in the future!

Top notch tour guide

We had a wonderful experience with Serge. He contacted us the day before the tour to suggest that we should consider starting our tour at an earlier time due to potential traffic issues going to Korankei Gorge. We were pleased with his suggestion as we even had extra time to go to another lovely spot. Serge gave us three options for the second place to visit. We chose to go to Shikizakura to see the cherry blossoms and colourful autumn leaves. We were not disappointed. He even took candid shots of us. We met Serge as our private tour guide but parted as a friend. He is very passionate at what he does and knowledgeable as a guide. Tip: A great photographer too. Do not hesitate to have him as your tour guide. You will not be disappointed.

Paul T.

Thank you so much for your kind words. Honestly, I feel like I have the best job in the world! With people like you, it never feels like work. From the moment you stepped into my car, the conversation flowed so naturally, it was as if the concept of "strangers" simply vanished. I laughed so much, and I was deeply inspired by the respect and love you share for each other. Thank you both for such a wonderful day—I’m already looking forward to our paths crossing again!

Best Tour Guide for Nagoya!

We had an indescribably great day with Noel away from the typical tourist attractions. He showed us the great Buddha, took us to visit Shinshū Ōtani-ha Nagoya-Betsuin Temple and we ended the day with a trip to Nagoya Castle. We would highly recommend Noel because he did a great job organizing everything and we would spend another day with him anytime. He gave us so much historical information, it was very informative and exciting!

Nina R.

Thank you so much. I very much enjoyed showing off a few of my favourite places here in Nagoya. I'm sure that you'll love the remainder of your travels around Japan. Meeting you and your family was fantastic and I greatly appreciate you helping me improve my German vocabulary. Safe journeys.
