Takayama Tour Reviews

“A wonderful local perspective of Takayama!”
We had a fantastic 2.5-hour tour with Mao, and she was truly wonderful. Even for a shorter tour, she took the time to carefully plan an itinerary that was perfectly adapted to all of our interests and specific requests. Mao shared great historical facts, but what we loved most was seeing the city through the eyes of someone born and raised there. It gave us a unique, authentic connection to Takayama that we wouldn't have found otherwise. We really enjoyed our time with her and highly recommend Mao for a personal and insightful tour!
Mao M.
Thank you for your review! I had a great time with you and felt like I was one of you! I’m really happy you enjoyed your time in Takayama! See you again in Takayama or Canada!

“Personalized Takayama Tour”
This was my husband and my 2nd time in Takayama and first time with our kids. Yoko made our time extra special by showing us historical, cultural and local sites tailored to our interests and the kids’ attention! We all had a great day filled with food, culture, education and souvenirs. Having Yoko with us allowed us to see and experience more than we could have on our own. Yoko was friendly, flexible, thoughtful, and patient. Everything you’d ask for in a guide. I highly recommend Yoko!
Yoko T.
Thank you for your warm words. I’m delighted you enjoyed Takayama. I also got a lot of energy from your wonderful family that day. Thank you.

“Thank you, Yoko! ”
Yoko was a delight and offered all the things we were looking for in a guide. Her English is excellent. She was flexible to adjust to our preferences (e.g. we’re not big shoppers). She introduced us to local customs, showed us all the key sites in Takayama and pointed out coffee shops and restaurants that otherwise we would not have known about, thanks to her extensive knowledge of the area. We would highly recommend her and feel like we made a new friend!
Yoko T.
Thank you for your kind feedback. I’m delighted to know that you enjoyed exploring Takayama together. Your friendliness made the tour special for me as well, thank you! Yoko
