Full day trip via a private car and English speaking guide to Takayama from Kanazawa
During our recent travels to Kanazawa, I wanted to spend a full day in Takayama. Unfortunately, the standard tour packages offered by most companies were limited to just a few hours. I reached out to Beyond Kanazawa tour company to inquire about customizing a package that would cater to our needs. It was then that I had the pleasure of interacting with Rina, who proved to be an exemplary representative. She was very professional, efficient, and always responsive. As it turned out, Rina not only helped us plan an incredible trip but also accompanied us as our tour guide for a memorable 10-hour excursion.
