What Our Customers Say
Fantastic Shirakawago
Visiting Shirakawago was a definite bucket list item ticked. Our guide Kumiko was fabulous. The suggestion to start the tour early was perfect as it meant we missed all the crowds and were able to really enjoy the village. Kumiko put so much special thought and effort to our trip and ensured we had the beat time possible.
