The road to Shirakawa-go is best approached from the Kanazawa side. The driver mentioned that the road from the opposite side has terrible traffic, taking about two hours just to park. On the White Road, we were delighted to see some monkeys pop out along the way. The waterfall was impressive, and it felt refreshing surrounded by so much greenery. Foreign visitors were enjoying making rice crackers. The tour guide was very friendly and made the experience enjoyable. He also casually answered questions about sightseeing in Kanazawa and assured us that the local conveyor belt sushi is always a hit.
白川郷への道は金沢側から行くのが正解。反対側からの道は物凄い渋滞で駐車場に停めるまで 2時間はかかると運転手さんが言ってました。ホワイトロードで途中お猿さんがひょっこり出て来てくれました。滝も見応えがあり、緑いっぱいの中気持ちよかったです。外国人の方はお煎餅焼きを楽しんでました。添乗員のお兄さんはとてもアットホームな感じで楽しかったです。金沢観光や地元の回転寿司はハズレがないなど質問にも気軽に答えてくれました。

I’m living alone in Kanazawa for a work assignment, and since I don’t know how long I’ll be here, I have to visit the famous spots whenever I can. I went from the unknown Hakusan White Road to Shirakawa-go.
The weather forecast had been predicting clear skies all day for the past couple of days! I was really looking forward to it! My main goal was to take photos, so the weather was crucial. However, it started raining the night before, and during the tour, there were only brief moments of sunshine. I desperately pressed the shutter…
At the final destination, the Gokayama village, it was raining quite heavily, but just 15 minutes before we finished… suddenly, the sun peeked out and a rainbow appeared… All’s well that ends well! (=^x^=)
単身赴任で金沢ひとり住まい…いつまで居るかわからないから、名所には行ける時に行かねばと未知の白山ホワイトロードから白川郷へ
二日ほど前から天気予報は一日中晴れマーク‼️
これは期待出来る‼️最大の目的はカメラ撮影だから天気に左右される。しかし前日の夜から雨が降り出し、ツアー中はわずかの晴れ間のみ。必死のパッチでシャッターを切る…
最終目的地の五箇山集落ではかなり降っていたが残り15分となった時…突然晴れ間がのぞき虹が…終わり良ければ全て良し‼️(=^x^=)
Dear Debukawa.com,
Thank you for participating in our tour and for sharing your valuable experience.
We appreciate the many beautiful photos you took. Shirakawa-go and Gokayama are both gassho-style villages, but I hope you felt a different atmosphere in each.
If you have the opportunity, please join our tour again. The White Road is a wonderful place to visit at any time! We look forward to your next visit, hoping for clear skies.

We enjoyed our full day tour. It gave us a feel for the city and met our expectations for a reasonably priced tour experience.
Lunch was quite good and there was plenty to eat. We got on the bus at 8am and the lunch stop was after 1pm, so I’d recommend taking snacks to keep you going.
The bus pulled-up in a couple of awkward places, making it difficult for some of passengers to get on and off at destinations.
Overall though, I’d recommend it.

I participated alone on October 21. I signed up two days prior, but it was no problem. The young guide was very friendly and had a soft way of speaking, which I appreciated, and the driver greeted us by saying he would drive safely, which made me feel at ease. I had always wanted to visit Shirakawa-go, and a sightseeing bus tour is a convenient option for solo travelers. I wish I had a bit more time in Shirakawa-go. As for Gokayama, personally, I could have done without it... The tour that goes around Takayama might have suited me better. The weather was nice, and the scenery on the White Road was beautiful, so I was satisfied. I hope to come back with my mother next time.

若いお兄さんがガイドでしたが、話し方も柔らかく好感もてましたし、運転手さんが最初に安全運転で参りますと挨拶をしてくれて安心できました。

Dear Mofuko,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. Many guests join us alone as well. We provide maps of the sightseeing areas on the bus in advance, and our tour guides will assist you to ensure you can explore efficiently in a short amount of time, so you can travel with peace of mind.
As we enter the winter season, please note that the Hakusan Shirakawago White Road will be closed due to snowfall, and we will be heading to Shirakawago via the Tokai Hokuriku Expressway. The winter route allows for longer stays at sightseeing spots like Shirakawago, so you can enjoy a more leisurely exploration. Winter in Shirakawago can be a bit cold, but it is highly recommended. We hope you will come back next time with your mother.
Thank you for the wonderful photos as well.

The autumn leaves have started in Shirakawa-go and Gokayama. We were blessed with clear weather and enjoyed a relaxed tour of this World Heritage site. Three-quarters of the group were international visitors.
I wondered about the bus seating arrangement, as we were completely separated during lunch. It felt quite awkward, especially since communication was completely lacking. The charm of travel often lies in the interactions we have, right?
The lunch didn't come with a menu, and while it was likely local cuisine, I was disappointed that I couldn't tell what I was eating. If I, as a Japanese person, felt this way, I can only imagine how the international guests felt. It seemed a bit inconsiderate.
The interpretation on the bus was really just "interpretation," and it was somewhat abbreviated. I think it would be better if the guide studied more about the tour destinations before providing interpretation. There was also a trainee tour conductor, but it felt like they were just sightseeing together with us. Even when we crossed paths during our walk, they seemed too absorbed in the sightseeing.
The experience of making rice crackers was interesting, but there were no English signs for the international guests, and there was very little sample food left. It felt like they weren't really interested in introducing their shop or encouraging purchases.
If there were a bit more thoughtful consideration, I would want to use this service again. The weather and route were fine, which made it all the more disappointing.

Dear Pupu-rin,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience regarding the bus seating, lunch, and interpretation.
Regarding the bus and lunch seating, we typically arrange the bus seats in the order of applications. Meals are also organized by group. We do not specifically separate Japanese guests from foreign guests. On that day, there were 15 guests from overseas, and since they were all in one group, the seating for the bus and lunch became consolidated. If we had informed you about the guest information that day, there may not have been any misunderstandings.
On some days, Japanese guests and overseas guests become friendly, and sometimes guests from the same country exchange emails and keep in touch after returning home.
We sincerely apologize for the lunch menu issue. Meals are one of the great pleasures of travel. I will communicate to our tour guides and interpretation staff to support our guests as much as possible. Please feel free to ask the restaurant staff about any menu items you do not understand.
I regret that the interpretation staff and the trainees caused you discomfort. We will thoroughly educate our team to ensure that such issues do not occur in the future.
Your valuable feedback has brought many new insights to our attention. Thank you very much. When conducting the same tour every day, it is easy to assume that this level of service is sufficient or that certain things are common knowledge. However, our guests are different each day. We will continue to strive with the spirit of "ichigo ichie" (treasuring each encounter).
If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend visiting Shirakawa-go in winter, so please come and visit us.
Best regards,
ぷぷりん様

バス座席や昼食、通訳の件でご迷惑をお掛けし大変申し訳ございません。
バスの座席・昼食の座席に関して
通常はお申し込み順でバスの座席を配置しております。お食事もグループごとに順に詰めていただいております。特に日本人と外国の方を分けてはおりません。
この日は海外からのお客様は15名いらしたのですが、15名で1グループだった関係でバスおよび昼食場所の座席が固まってしまいました。
添乗員からもその日のお客様情報をお知らせすれば誤解がなかったのかもしれませんね。
日によっては、日本人のお客様と海外からのお客様が仲良くなったり、たまたま同じ国からご参加したお客様同士がメール交換したりして、
帰国後も連絡を取り合ったりされることもあるようです。
昼食のお品書きに関して
大変申し訳ございませんでした。食事は旅の大きな楽しみの一つです。
添乗員、通訳スタッフにもできる限りお客様のフォローするように伝えます。
また、お店の人にもわからないメニューはどんどん質問をしてください。
通訳スタッフの件、研修生の件では嫌な思いをさせてしまいました。

On October 23, my spouse and I participated in a one-day tour from Kanazawa to Shirakawa-go and Gokayama. The weather was nice, and the autumn leaves along the Hakusan White Road were very beautiful. I have great respect for the locals who take care of the houses in Shirakawa-go and Gokayama.
The tour itself was very good.
However, there were a few disappointing points that need improvement: this time, there was a high percentage of European foreigners, with only four Japanese participants, which was quite few. The Japanese guide's explanations in Japanese were easy to understand, but I am worried that the subsequent English translation by the Indian guide did not match the Japanese explanations and was sometimes omitted, which may have left the foreign participants unsatisfied. It was very disappointing that there was no guide who could accurately explain the detailed information provided by the Japanese guide in English, considering historical context and customs, in a way that was easy for foreigners to understand. I hope that the Japanese trainee guide who was able to speak English will develop further.

ツアー自体はとてもよかった。
少し残念で改善が必要なポイント:今回は欧州系外国人の割合が多く、日本人は4名と少なかった。日本人ガイドの日本語説明は分かりやすかったが、続くインド人?ガイドの英訳が日本語説明と合っていなかったり、省略されたりで外国人参加者が満足できたのか心配である。日本語ガイドの細かな説明を正確にかつ歴史・時代背景・風習など考慮して外国人にも分かりやすく英語で説明できるガイドがいなかったことがとても残念である。当日参加の英語のできる日本人研修生ガイドが育ってくれればと期待する。
Dear Swimmer 2014,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. The autumn leaves along the Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road are currently at their peak. Soon, these leaves will descend into Shirakawa-go and Gokayama.
In the villages around Hakusan, including Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, many traditional customs and ways of life still remain. It is often surprising to find that even though they are in different prefectures, the tools used are the same, or that there are similar dialects.
If you were able to experience even a little of the lives of the people who are nurtured by the sacred peak of Hakusan, I would be very pleased.
Thank you for your valuable feedback on areas for improvement. Our tour is supported by several English-speaking interpreters, but it seems there are differences in individual skills. We will strive to reinforce staff retraining in the future.

We had a fabulous tour of Tokyo with Tom as our guide! He was so kind, informative, and interesting. He picked us up at the cruise port right on time and showed us as many highlights of Tokyo as we had time for, and we loved them all. We saw a really nice variety of Buddhist temple, Shinto shrine, Imperial palace as well as more modern shopping and government districts. We had a great driver too who dropped us off close to whereever we were going. Tom was flexible about our needs. We requested one of the department store food halls for lunch, and he took us to a great one and found a nice rooftop area for us to eat at. It was so fun to have Tom guide us through the hall and explain the food to us. After the trip, Tom sent us all pictures and a journal of the day—so thoughtful! We loved Tokyo and Tom and can’t wait to return and schedule more tours with him!

Tom, our tour guide was simply fabulous. He arrived at our hotel on time and had a driver with him. He explained our plan for the day and asked if we wanted to alter anything. It was raining that day so he suggested an alternate tour so we can get the most out of the experience. Instead of going to the Pagoda to view Mt Fuji ( which wouldn’t happen because of the fog and rain), we decided to visit the natural ice cave and wind cave instead. It was such an adventure and me and my girlfriends had so much fun. We then went to an authentic tic Japanese restaurant for lunch by the lake, did the ropeway, went to a Sakw brewery and finished off with a bath at the hot springs. If tpu’re thinking of a day trip to MT Fuji, hiring Tom is the only way to go! And he spoke perfect English :)
Thank you so much for a wonderful day Tom!!

I wanted to visit Shirakawa-go, so I joined a tour. We departed from Kanazawa Station, traveled through the White Road to Shirakawa-go, and then explored Takayama and experienced making rice crackers before returning to Kanazawa Station. During the bus ride, we were able to look at brochures while receiving explanations about the highlights and delicious food, which made for an efficient sightseeing experience. It took about 10 hours from departure to return, but they created quiet time for us to rest during the journey, allowing us to enjoy the entire trip! There was also an interpreter on board, so about half of the participants were from overseas, and they accommodated vegetarian meals as well. I was very satisfied with both the tour content and the staff's service. Thank you!

Thank you for the comfortable tour. Perhaps because the reviews I saw in advance were so wonderful, it didn't quite reach the highest level of excitement, but it was a very satisfying tour.
In particular, the guide's explanations were kind and thorough, incorporating a lot of information that I wanted to know. I felt a high level of likability, which I believe is also due to their personality.
Regarding the minimum number of participants, I hesitated when applying, wondering if the tour would be canceled if there were fewer than four people. However, I learned that it is conducted about 300 times a year. If that had been clearly stated, I might have applied without hesitation.

A plan to take your time from morning until evening. The driver and guide were both enjoyable and made the time fly by. It was great to leisurely travel the White Road, a place you wouldn't typically visit on your own, with stunning views from the car window. Even with the holiday crowds, we were able to enter Shirakawa-go right away, a privilege of the tour. We were able to thoroughly explore three World Heritage sites, including the views from the car window.

As you mentioned, the "Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road" is indeed a location that can be difficult to access individually, especially for those who are not comfortable driving. However, by joining our tour, you can relax and enjoy the ride on the bus.
Additionally, we are aware of the busy times and periods in Shirakawa-go, allowing us to navigate through traffic with ease, which has received great feedback from our guests. We also highly recommend visiting Shirakawa-go in winter!
Please feel free to reach out to us again when you visit this area.
Thank you for your feedback!

弊社ツアーにご参加頂くとバスでごゆっくりお楽しみ頂けます。
また、事前に白川郷の込み合う時期、時間を把握してますので、
渋滞を横目に優越感満載!で皆様には大変ご好評です。
冬の白川郷もオススメです!
是非またこちらへお越しの際はお声掛け下さいませ。

I was expecting coolness in early September, but it was hot!
The conversation made me forget about the heat.
Thank you to the guide, who also handled various tasks, and the driver.
I was promised to come back again.

I wish I had a bit more time in Shirakawa-go! I couldn't explore enough. The lunch was very delicious! Both the guide and the driver were very kind, cheerful, and easy to talk to. Since it was a small group, it was very relaxed. They shared many enjoyable stories about Kanazawa, which were very helpful.
白川郷での時間がもう少し欲しかったです!十分に散策できなかったです。ランチは、とても美味しかったです!ガイドさん、ドライバーさんどちらもとても、優しくて明るくて話しやすかったです。少人数のグループだったのでとても気楽でした。金沢について楽しいお話をたくさんしてくれて役立ちましました。

Overall the tour was a great experience for me and my family.
Our guide Taiji was very knowledgable about the places we visited and was very flexible and accomodating to our plans. He was also very engaging towards the group.
We would definitely engage him again when we tour Japan again and strongly recommend him to travellers.

We were picked up on time by our guide Tom Harada. He was very throughout and thoughtful in planning what we should visit and made all the different sites arrangement efficiently . He is knowledgeable about the itinerary on hand . His approach is filled with dedication and heart . I would recommend to anyone looking for an English speaking guide to reserve Tom Harada. You will not be disappointed.
I hope all is well with you and your wonderful family. I want to thank you for your very kind and generous review on Veltra site. It means a lot to me ! My work on 20 August around Mt. Fuji has become a great memory thanks to your kindness and quality personality of all your family.. Thank you for giving me a fond memory. Once again, I will be wishing nothing but the very best for you and yours.

My foreign husband and in-laws joined me, and we were all very impressed by the nature of Shirakawa-go and the White Road. The driver and guide were very kind, making it a fun trip. Since there were only five participants, it felt like a luxurious, almost private experience. As the driver mentioned, the White Road is a hidden gem, and even during the autumn foliage season, it wasn't crowded. We hardly encountered any other tourists this time. I highly recommend it!
外国人の主人と義父母を連れての参加だったのですが、白川郷はもとよりホワイトロードの自然にとても感激していました。運転手さん、ガイドさんともとても親切で楽しい旅行になりました。参加者が5名だったこともあり、ゆったりしたほぼプライベートのような贅沢な旅行でした。ホワイトロードは穴場だと運転手さんが言っていた通り、紅葉の時期でも混んでいないとか。今回もほとんど観光客などにすれ違いませんでした。とてもオススメです!
Dear Mumu0709,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour and for sharing your experience! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed it. I also had a great time guiding you that day.
Please consider joining our tour again when you visit Kanazawa. The Hakusan Shirakawago White Road is particularly recommended in the fall, so I hope you and your family can come back during that season. I believe the autumn foliage along the White Road will be even more breathtaking. I will make sure to study more English by then.
We look forward to seeing you again!

Having a guide made it easy to understand, with plenty of informative explanations!
I was satisfied because we could go to all the places we wanted.
The guide shared some secret information about places that made me really want to visit, so I went the next day! By the way, it's 8 Ban Ramen.
The bus was spacious and it was a comfortable tour.
Thank you!

We (2 adults) visited Tokyo during the Sakura season and were fortunate to have Tom Harada as our personal guide for a whole day. The driver was a colleague of his who normally does Chinese guided tours so we had two very nice professionals on board.
On our way to Mount Fuji Tom asked us thoroughly about our interests and what we would prefer to see. So he made an individual plan for us and it was great.
The weather was perfect and we had a beautiful view of Mt. Fuji.
Tom knows literally EVERYTHING and he is also very entertaining.
He is not only the perfect guide who can read his clients very well and adapt to that but he is also a great photographer. This has probably something to do with his former job. He took beautiful pictures of us always telling us where to stand so the light and the view would be better.
He took us to a great restaurant for lunch.
We could tell that he is very passionate about what he does and that genuineness is great to see and that is exactly what makes this tour so special.
We strongly recommend this tour for everybody visiting Mt. Fuji.
It was one of the best experiences we had in Japan.
And make sure you ask for Tom.

Our custom family private day trip with Mr. Tom Harada and his associates was exactly what we wanted. His English was perfect, he was extremely patient, courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable about both the history of the areas we visited as well as their current attractions and features. He was waiting for us in our hotel when we arrived in the lobby, and was always managing our time throughout the day so we were able to see everything we wanted. He customized the tour to our preferences and specifications, and also recommended other areas that were convenient and very enjoyable. The transportation was very clean and comfortable, and the driver was very safe. He even assisted us with our bags and booking tickets on the shinkansen at the conclusion of the tour, ensuring we were safely on our way to our next destination. He also offered us his phone number if we had any problems the rest of our trip in Japan he could help with.
This tour is highly recommended, and I would encourage you to trust Mr. Harada with your tour, as he knows all the secrets, hidden gems, and in's-and-out's to ensure your valuable time is spent wisely.
