From Kanazawa/Takayama: Shirakawa-go & Takayama Day Trip

Explore Japan's Alpine region on a day trip from Kanazawa or Takayama. Visit Shirakawa-go, Hida no Sato, and Takayama's Old Town, and enjoy local food and culture.
Begin your journey with a ride to Shirakawa-go, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its traditional Gassho-zukuri farmhouses. Marvel at the architecture designed to withstand heavy winter snowfalls, wander through peaceful village pathways, and take in panoramic views of the surrounding mountains.

Here, preserved historic buildings brought from across the region showcase traditional Japanese craftsmanship, tools, and rural life. Experience the authentic atmosphere of old-world Japan away from the major tourist crowds.

Stroll along beautifully preserved streetscapes lined with Edo-period timber merchant houses, traditional craft shops, and historic sake breweries. Indulge in local delights such as world-famous Hida Beef skewers, regional street food, and authentic local souvenirs.

After an enriching day exploring the best of Gifu and Ishikawa prefectures, relax on your return transfer as you are dropped off comfortably at your designated drop-off location.
