We were a family of 3 adults and a baby needing to get from Kanazawa to Takayama and this car transfer option was fantastic as it was shorter then the train journey and included Shirakawago. Yuka picked us up on time. The car was clean and spacious, with a baby car seat as requested. Yuka was a careful driver and knowledgable guide. She was kind and very attentive to our needs with the baby and was flexible. Her lunch recommendation of a soba restaurant at Shirakawago was excellent. Thank you Yuka!
