“Shirakawago and Takayama”
Thank you Bonnie we had an amazing day with you. Your knowledge of the Takayama and Shirakawago area was fantastic and we loved walking the streets of Takayama and sampling the wonderful foods. Thank you for your generosity arranging our bus to Shirakawago. You were so kind to also help us with our JR tickets for our trip to Kyoto. I would definitely recommend you take this tour with Bonnie- you will never come across another town like Shirakawago in your life!! And Takayama is an amazing town with hardly any crowds! Totally recommend!!

“Fun and knowledgeable tour guide”
Bonnie took us for a full day around Takayama and Shirakawa-Go. Even though it was a rainy day out, she remained vivacious, engaging and switched-on the whole time. She was well-prepared and knowledgeable about the areas she brought us too, and her passion for her adopted home really shone through the whole time. She even took us to her favourite retail spots for some shopping of local craftsmen wares which really capped off a marvellous day.

Hello everyone. I am Tetsuji. I worked as a public servant in the local government for 35 years. I belonged to the department of Redevelopment, Town-Landscaping, Preserving historical areas and Architectural Guidance. (I have a national 1st-class architect license.) I devoted myself to revitalizing the city by making plans and improving infrastructure for citizens. Gifu is located in central Japan near Nagoya. As just being the crossroads of the West and the East, there are many unique attractions that are hard to discover in hectic big cities like Tokyo or Kyoto. I had a hand in restoring and preserving some of them throughout my career and want to introduce them to tourists from abroad. That’s why I became a guide-interpreter in Gifu. I also enjoyed traveling around the world. My favorite part of each trip was walking around the city and talking with local residents. Traveling has taught me lots of things during my lifetime. Now, I would like to help others have similar experience in Japan. Shall we enjoy fantastic journey in Gifu?

Hello, I'm Yuichi, an English tour guide in Hokuriku region. If you are thinking about traveling to historical places such as Kanazawa, Shirakawa-go and Takayama, I am willing to offer a tour. I can bring you to those popular destinations from my base, Toyama city. These are the examples of my tour: Kanazawa - Shirakawago - Takayama Takaoka - Gokayama - Shirakawago - Takayama Toyama - Tateyama Kurobe Alipne Route - Omachi (Nagano Pref.) During the tour I like to provide simple explanations about Japanese history, and small tips for using the Japanese language on your request. My interests are food, cooking, sake and wine as well as Japanese novels and movies. It would be possible to add those tastes to our tour including a visit to local wineries, movie scenes, etc... Finally, I will do my best to give you a pleasant stay. Looking forward to seeing you in Hokuriku!
