What an awesome tour. Despite the light rain all day, Desiree, our guide made the hike memorable. She was well organised and all the transport went smoothly. Desiree was knowledgeable on the region history, and ensured we had plenty of time for photos and to explore the Historic Magome and Tsumago. The lunch was delicious. All in all a fabulous day and so invigorating being in the forest. Highly recommend this tour - the company name says it all Nagoya is not Boring.

We did the tour with Patty. We were all around happy with the hike and Patty could tell us a lot about the sights and history of the region. Lunch was equally excellent! Highly recommended tour!

We feel pampered and taken care of at all times. We were a group of 14 Spaniards. Very professional, empathetic and nice, both she and Patricia. They deserve a rating of 10/10.
