  Visiting Shirakawago in the summer is much different than visiting in the winter. Both are unique experiences and worth the visit. A must visit place.

• Great guide - great sites- great day.

  First our tour guide made this experience for us. Maaz is charming, welcoming and knows the area very well. Even though it was a dreary rainy day we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. He made sure everyone was enjoying themselves and were taken care of. Made great recommendations The sites are really quite beautiful - could not have been better. Highly rcommend

  Gahar was a very kind and safe driver. He took us to both villages and waited for us while we had a nice walk around the village. He picked us up at the location we asked and overall it was comfortable and easy to eat to travel and explore these villages.

• Lovely way to see these beautiful, historic towns!

  We had a wonderful day visiting Shirakawa-go and Toyama with Goher. He picked us up promptly and was very kind to accommodate a stop for coffee. Goher told us about each place and shared things about himself along the way. He walked with us in Shirakawa-go and then waited in Toyama while we had lunch and explored the small streets. It was such a nice way to spend a day to explore these beautiful historic towns. Well worth the money to have the private experience so we could adjust where we wanted to spend more/less time. Goher was a very nice guide — open, kind and very polite. Highly recommend!

  This excursion into the mountains of Japan to see world heritage sites is a once in a lifetime experience. The beauty of the mountains and incredible views are stunning. Shirakawa-go and Hida no Sato were on our list to visit before leaving Japan. Smile Tours were great! The itinerary is packed and you see the best places but also can be flexible! Our guide was Zahain, and he was very friendly, spoke English and above all was a safe driver and patient driver! The all day adventure was worth it!
