Walking tour in Takaoka with private car transportation
I will take guests to Takaoka's attractions. The real Japanese life spreads out in the town. We not only see around Takaoka's landmarks basically, but also talk with locals at some places. The tour starts from where you like and ends where you like. It is possible to do this because the tour is done by car. There are attractive sites, but they are dispersed in the area. So I have planned this tour for tourists using a car. Let's go to area's many attractions.

Toyama Tour Reviews
Richard A.
“Excellent tour of Shirakawago Village and Shogawa River Cruise”
We had an excellent tour with Mr. Naoto visiting Shirakawa-go Village and taking the Gorge river cruise. The Shirakawa-go village is interesting and visually appealing - particularly since it was Sakura season (which happens later than in Toyama or Kanazawa). Shirakawa was somewhat crowded, but not unpleasantly so. It's also a pretty drive. Lunch was very good at a place that has trout sushi which is unique to the Toyama area.

Hi Richard and your lovely wife, Thank you for such a thoughtful review! It was fantastic to spend the day with two "travel experts" like yourselves. I’m glad the drive and the scenic river cruise added a nice touch to your Japanese adventure. I really enjoyed our talk about your cruise experiences and global travels. Seeing the late-blooming sakura with you both was a highlight for me as well! I wish you all the best in your future travels and business. Please stay in touch if you ever find yourselves back in the Hokuriku area. Best regards, Naoto

“Two days with Naoto”
We took the Gokayama tour and the snow wall tour as well with Naoto. He shared a lot of interesting information about the area. He was well organized and attentive. The Toyama area is gorgeous, and we had a wonderful time. Definitely you must tour Toyama with him.

Dear Jesus, Thank you so much for your kind words! I am truly honored to have received such a wonderful review. I really enjoyed our time together in Gokayama and at the Snow Walls. It was a pleasure sharing the history and stories of my hometown with you and your mother. I was also very impressed by how much you cared for her throughout the trip—it made the tour even more special for me. The weather was perfect, and I’m so glad you could see the gorgeous side of the Toyama area. I hope the rest of your journey in Japan is filled with more beautiful memories. You and your family are always welcome back to Toyama! Naoto

“Beautiful day exploring Toyama region”
Naoto was a helpful and knowledgeable guide, giving history of the region throughout the trip. He customized the tour to ensure we got exactly what we’d hoped for. Naoto shared his interest in fly fishing and travel which added to the experience as it was clear he had a great respect and love for his home and nature. Highly recommend booking with Naoto!

Dear Penny, Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience! It was a true pleasure to customize the day for you both. I’m so glad we could adjust our route to find the blossoms in Kamioka and that you enjoyed the history of my home region. Sharing stories about fly fishing and our mutual love for nature and travel made the day even more special for me as well. I hope the rest of your trip to Kyoto was wonderful and that you have a safe flight back to Seattle. Please give my best regards to your aunt Lisa. I hope to see you again in Wyoming or Toyama. Warm regards, Naoto
