    This tour was fantastic! Takayama is lovely. Our guide, Mihoko, first took us to the Hida no-sato folk village, which was stunning. She shared her knowledge about how the locals live. Afterwards, we explored the charming old town streets, which are hard to describe due to their neatness. There were many shops, and Mihoko allowed us time to explore.Isaac_R on the Customizable private walking tour of Takayama tour
