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.
快適なツアーを有難うございました。
事前に拝見した口コミがあまりにも素晴らしかったせいか、最高でした!までのテンションには至らなかったのですが、とても満足なツアーでした。
特にガイドさんの説明は、親切 丁寧で
知りたいと思うことをたくさん盛り込んでくださいました。お人柄もあると思いますが好感度高く感じました。
催行人数についてですが、4人に満たなかった場合は取りやめ?と申し込み時に迷いました。けれど、実際は年300回位
実施されているとのこと、そのように表記されていたら悩まずすんなり申し込めたかしら、と思いました。

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.
朝から夕方まで、じっくりと行くプラン。運転手の方やガイドさんもそつなく楽しくあっという間でした。個人では中々行かないホワイトロードをゆっくりと行く、車窓からの景色は最高です。連休の混雑も脇目にツアーの特権?白川郷にすぐに入場できました。車窓を含めて三ヶ所の世界遺産をしっかり見学できました。
Dear nemo×2,
Thank you for participating in the "Shirakawa-go and Gokayama: Two World Heritage Village Experience Tour"! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your time, and our entire staff, especially the driver and guide on the day, are very pleased.
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!

The tour was well organised, the tour guide was the best we had all week, Yoshi was helpful and informative. The weather was not the best but we still had an amazing time. 5th Station was very misty, the shrine there was worth a look. Cable car up to Volcano crater was good, black eggs and a spot of shopping. The boat trip was good, we managed to see Mount Fuji for about 30 seconds and got a picture too.

This was my first time using the service of a taxi driver who could speak English. I was attending a foreign visitor who was visiting Kyoto for the first time, so we went to well-known tourist spots, but I was truly moved by the guide talk about places I had never known before and the background of each location. I was impressed by what a professional guide is like, and I am grateful to the taxi driver who provided such a thoughtful and warm guide. I definitely want to use this service again when I visit Kyoto next time.
今回初めて、英語が話せるタクシードライバーさんのサービスを利用しました。京都には初めて訪れた外国人をアテンドしていたので、誰でも知っているような場所への観光でしたが、自分も全く知らなった見所や、各場所の背景などのガイドトークが本当に感動的でした。
プロのガイドさんというのはこういうものなんだなと感心するとともに、丁寧で心温まるガイドをして下さったタクシードライバーさんに感謝です。
次に京都にを訪れるときにも、ぜひこのサービスを利用したいと思います。

We took a one day tour with Veltra on Saturday 25 August. The tour commenced on time at Jolly's Coffee Shop opposite the Shin Kyoto Station. The tour gave us a comprehensive overview of the temples, shrines and gardens in Kyoto. There is a fair amount of walking to visit each site and this coupled with mid 30's temperatures was indeed a challenge for us in our mid 70's. Nevertheless the guide did point out shortcuts for us and still see the important sites. Lunch on this day was similar to a shabu shabu event with chicken & vegetable cooked at the table individually. It would have been even better in cooler weather. We found the tour ideal for the one day traveller to at least gain an overview of the beautiful historic sites of Kyoto.
Thank you you for joining our tour.
We are happy to get 5 stars and a great comment.

Mother Nature defeated all attempts by the enthusiastic travel team to make it a great day. Unfortunately we caught the tails winds and rain from a typhoon that went through and there is no cancellation, just changes to routing schedule, they do warn you of this possibility. Every change of plan was thrawted with more wind and rain. Tour guide tried her hardest to make a go of it and was very knowledgeable and forthcoming with interesting information and felt a tad sorry for her and the driving team who were also very pleasant. Mother Nature won out on this one, just a shame there isn’t the ability to take a rain check as our US cousins would say, the weather ended up so bad it was hard to stand up and MT Fuji itself was closed. I imagine it is a great tour in any other circumstances.

We were very fortunate that the summer weather was very good; skied were clear. From afar on the coach, we were able to see Mount Fuji in its elegance. A great guide (Joji) was passionate about the mountain, sharing her own experience when she did the ascent to the crater top. That made the emotional connection. The cable car ride was beautiful; it brought us to the sulphur “mine” that added to the volcanic heritage of Mount Fuji. The ride on the pirate ship in the lake was nice as a good conclusion to the excursion.

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!

A word of advice - if you are prone to motion sickness, please take precautions to minimize it or consider a different tour. The road up to and down Mt. Fuji has many switchbacks. Also, if you have trouble breathing take into consideration the thinner air due to the higher altitude while walking around at the Mt. Fuji stop.

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.

Overall experience is great. Tour guide - Ms Kanako was patient and really trying her best to finish completing the venues on time. The time spent on Mount Fuji was really too short. My wife and I do not have enough time patronising all the shops and the photos were taken in a rush (at least 45to60min instead of just 25min). Should have taken out the ropeway since the cable cars are not so impressive. The pirate ships were nicely decorated and the views were amazing. Advice to future participants would be to take the bullet train back to your hotels. My wife and I got back to Tokyo in a breeze around 40min. Those opting to take bus back will need at least 2.5to3hrs since it’s the peak hours. The food at Mount Fuji restaurant was good as well. Do opt for the meals included.

Overall the trip was really nice. We had a very good view of Mount Fuji and the lady that guided us was very professional and very well prepared, maintaining a pleasant atmosphere all the time. Unfortunately we've done this trip at the beginning of raining season (beginning of June) so Hakone area and Lake Ashi was immersed in a very thick fog (luckily the weather around Mount Fuji was very good and we had a clear view of the mountain). But again check very carefully the weather before booking the trip! The success of this trip will be defined by the weather conditions! The lunch wasn't very rich but overall OK (hot pot with rice). You can pack some sweets to have it with you.

Tom also ensured we got to see the important sights and experience the key highlights and more importantly was always ensuring our welfare was the highest priority. Highly recommended

Dear Chacha,
Thank you for participating in our tour.
Your photos are wonderful. The colors of the cosmos in the foreground and the rice fields during the harvest season are truly soothing. This is a landscape that can only be enjoyed at this time of year in Shirakawa-go.
Regarding the reviews, we are very pleased to receive such high evaluations from everyone, and it has also become a positive pressure for us. Without becoming complacent with this recognition, we will continue to work together as a team to ensure that our tours are enjoyable for everyone.
Additionally, starting this year, the minimum number of participants required for the tour is two. We apologize for the delay in updating this information. Thank you for your feedback.
We hope you will visit us again when the opportunity arises.

手前のコスモスと稲刈りシーズンの田んぼの色合いがとっても癒されます。
この時季しか楽しめない白川郷での風景ではないでしょうか。
