Furukawa is locate on the way to Toyama, Kanazawa by train about 20 minutes from Takayama. If you stay Takayama 2 or 3 days, it's an good day trip!
We really appreciated Mao’s tour yesterday. She grew up here and knows Takayama inside out. Before we met up with her, we walked around for a hour with a map, but could not connect with the city. Then it all changed after we met her! She was very friendly and enthusiastic. It made us feel a friend is showing us around in Takayama!
Thank you for your review! I really enjoyed with you just like friend. I remember your recommendation and please enjoy your trip in Japan!
Mao is local and very knowledgeable about her city. She was very pleasant and helpful. Her smile was a bonus.
Thank you for joined my tour though the day was cold. I'm glad that you enjoyed my home town! Have a safe trip and enjoy Japan!
A young girl really pleasant and proactive, we had a good time and a relaxed walking tour in interesting spots.
Thank you for your review! I really enjoyed with you and thank you for your lovely gifts! See you next time in Takayama!
My time in Takayama would have been less interesting if I didn’t book a tour with Mao-san. She’s a young and enthusiast guide. She has a surprising sense of humor. She was so kind to listen to my requests and could combine Takayama with a short visit in Furukawa. She gave me good advice on where to eat. Grazie Mao-san!
Arigatou for joined my tour! I enjoyed talking with you too. I hope you don’t get hangover! See you next time!
