Takayama old town - This tour of old Town Takayama took place after dark so many of the shops had closed. Nevertheless our guide went out of his way to explain the long history and culture of this very old area. He was very knowledgeable.

Tour 25/07/2023 - I really enjoyed this tour! Our guide was Miyuki (Mu) and she was super fun and kind! She walked us through the main spots in Takayama, where she explained the history of the city and its traditions. She even gave us advice where to eat local ramen and it was AMAZING. I definitely reccomend it! Thank you very much Mu!
