Day trip to Inuyama!
Our tour guide Yuriko was knowledgeable, polite (who isn’t in Japan) and amiable. In a half day we climbed to the top of Inuyama castle, witnessed the festival floats and enjoyed learning about the culture of the samurai city of Inuyama.

What a fantastic day we had to the Inuyama Castle, with the added amazing viewing of the history of puppetry at the museum. Our guide Yama-san was excellent!! His enthusiasm and knowledge was so appreciated, and his guidance at lunch made for a beautiful meal! Thank you Yama-son … you made the day special!
