A serene winter escape in Gokayama, Nestled deep in the mountains, this UNESCO world heritage site feels like stepping into a tranquil storybook scene. The traditional gassho-zukuri thatched roof houses, gently dusted with snow, are surrounded by towering peaks and the stillness of nature. Far from the crowds, Gokayama offers a peaceful glimpse into Japan’s timeless countryside charm. #gokayama #unescowolrdheritage #snowyescape #traditionaljapan #hiddengem #mountainserenity #winterjapantrip #winterjapan #privateguide #kanazawatours #takayamatours #japancountryside

During a private day trip to Ainokura in Gokayama, our guests are treated to an impromptu traditional performance of local music and dance (Koririko). This percussion instrument is called sasara and is used traditionally in folk songs such as the one sung here.
Each step, each beat, and each note resonates with Japan’s rich cultural heritage. While the dancer brings the story to life, the accompanying vocalist and stick instrument player add depth and soul to this unforgettable experience. Thank you to these incredible artists for sharing this rare and beautiful tradition. 🎶🕊️

The annual harvest festival (Horai matsuri) in Tsurugi town, 800 years of tradition, 30 minutes outside Kanazawa, Ishikawa. What’s starts off well behaved can quickly become quite rowdy. An amazing cultural experience this weekend. So much to explore.
Not as easy as it looks! Sachiko took her guests for a hands-on Ninja star (shuriken) throwing experience. While the skilled instructor effortlessly hit the center of the target, first-timers had to try a few times to find the perfect angle and velocity. Join our tours to enjoy this and other unique activities with our expert guides in Kanazawa!
