Nagoya is known as the “Heart of Japan” for not only its central location and historical significance but also for its great contributions to the culture and industry of Japan. A city of innovation, the industrial prominence of the region had led it to become the home to manufacturing giants such as Toyota, Brother, Noritake, Ibanez, Buffalo, and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.
From automobiles to AI, and from edo-era lodgings to glass skyscrapers, this journey through Japan’s center of commerce will provide you with a glimpse into Nagoya’s industrial past and its dreams for a technological future as you are led by an experienced, English-speaking guide on this full-day tour.

We had Kim as our guide. She was friendly, helpful, and informative - she would check and update us when she did not have the answer to our question right away. She was also accommodative - as we had mobility issue. This one tour was most enjoyable!
