Inuyama slott (Inuyamajō) byggdes ursprungligen 1537, och dess donjon är en av Japans äldsta bevarade. Det är ett av endast tolv "originalslott" som finns kvar i Japan, dvs ett slott vars huvudslott har överlevt den postfeodala tiden sedan 1868 intakt. Inuyama Castle är också ett av endast fem slott vars huvudborgar har utsetts till nationalskatter. De andra fyra är Himeji slott, Matsumoto slott, Hikone slott och Matsue slott.
Ena ravinen (Ena-kyo), är sjön och det omgivande området som skapades bakom Oi dammen när den byggdes. Den har utsetts till en av Gifus prefekturparker. På höger sida av ravinen finns ”Sazanami park” som har vackra blommor året runt. Om du tar en av de platssökande båtarna på sjön kan du också se de märkligt formade klipporna och klipporna på andra sidan klyftan. På våren finns Körsbärsblommor, på sommaren, vackra fria gröna färger, på hösten, vackra färgade löv och på vintern samlas många fåglar där. Området runt Ena ravinen har också många ställen att bo, så att du kan njuta av läget året runt.
Magome är en före detta postort i Kisodalen, som betjänade resenärer i Nakasendo, en stor väg som förbinder Tokyo med Kyoto under feodaltiden. Medan du utforskar Magome, kommer besökarna säkert stöta på namnet Shimazaki Toson. Toson föddes i Magome 1872 och är en högt ansedd person i japansk litteratur. I romanen Yoakemae (Innan gryningen) beskriver han berömt livet i området kring åren för Meijirestaurationen. Dess ofta citerade första rad lyder "Hela Kisoji ligger i bergen". Staden har blivit vackert restaurerad med en bred stengång kantad av träbyggnader och omsorgsfullt vårdat lövverk. Magomes förskönade bevarande kontrasterar mot grannlandet Tsumagos robusta äkthet. De två städerna förbinds av Magome-Tsumago Trail, en rutt som var en del av Nakasendo.
Tsumago var en postort på Nakasendo rutten mellan Kyoto och Edo. Den är idag känd som en av de bäst bevarade postorterna i Japan. Staden och dess invånare anstränger sig för att återskapa atmosfären från Edoperioden. Bilar är förbjudna på huvudgatan på dagen och telefonlinjer och elkablar hålls dolda, så att besökarna kan föreställa sig att de har glidit tillbaka till en tidigare tid. Tsumago återskapar också poststadens atmosfär genom att behålla sin Honjin och Wakihonjin. I poststäderna var Honjin det huvudsakliga värdshuset och tjänade regeringstjänstemän som reste genom. När det krävdes mer logi tjänade Wakihonjin för att ta emot resenärer med något lägre status. Tsumago upprätthåller också kontoret där arbetare och hästar hyrdes för att hjälpa till med resor.

This is a bus trip with a driver and an attendant. The attendant spoke English and Chinese and gave a few snippets of info but was mainly informing the length of timest each location. This is not a tour with a tour guide. From this aspect the tour advertising is nebulous to say the least. Not a good option
It was ok, but i don't think the tour was advertised properly. I didn't know how long we would be on the bus and I didn't know the tour would return until 6pm. You need to say up front that it takes approximately 10 hours. Also, not enough time at the castle. I also assumed it would be a guided tour where the guide would stay with us and talk about the history of each place. The tour guide was very nice and did provide a short background on each place, but it was not enough. The price was reasonable though, so I guess that's what I should have expected.
This covers what I originally planned for 2 or 3 days trips, because of the guide and drivers knows ways things go. We are so glad to sele t this tour
Unfortunate today ican't write any review because I arrived late and didn't see anything!!I got lost
Great service-the guide was wonderful! The bus was spectacular! The other tourists (all Chinese) were exciting and ready to have a great experience! Sites were all as expected…not so busy, historical AND super-duper fabulous!!! Thanks again!!!
Superb excursion with a nice castle to start with then Lena George with a very nice color of water and the two postal villages are really picturesque and beautiful. They are different but everyone will love the serenity and beauty of the houses. Recommend the restaurant in Magalie in front of the mountain (very good very nice and very welcome)
Everything about this trip was great. We did everything on the itinerary. We left on time at 8:30 right in front of the mini stop just like in the instructions. The guides name was Lisa. She spoke Chinese and English. The bus was only about half full. As the only English speakers on the trip she made sure that we understood all directions and gave great tips for food. Mr. Ishiba was a very efficient bus driver getting us everywhere on time or a little early. Everyone on the trip was on time or early making getting to each stop a breeze. Inuyama Castle was so cool. The stairs are very steep but worth it for the view. It was very clean and all the staff were nice. Even speaking a little English as we went through the castle making us feel welcome. The stamp for the castle is right as you are about to walk out of the castle gates. There are lots of pretty shrines and places to stop and look while going up and down to the castle. Ena Gorge was very Beautiful. There was a very nice older couple running the small rest stop selling fruits, ice cream, and Yaki imo. The yaki imo was 400 yen but it was the biggest sweet potato I’ve ever seen. lol . The older gentleman running the store even spoke a bit of English. The couple was very sweet. It is a short stop but just right for photos and a snack. There was an amusement park right across the street that was closed today but it looks like a cool trip to try another day. Megome was so pretty. It’s surrounded by mountains. The tourist center had a ton of flyers and maps in English. It also had 4 stamps for free, two in black and two in red. We ended up walking to the top of the mountain street to the observation zone, it takes about 20 minutes from the parking lot. There is a second tourist stop half way up the mountain with a stamp and bathrooms. There was a quick place to stop and rest. If you donate yen to the preservation of the trail you get to pick a small keepsake. I choose the tissue holder. It’s really cute. There were two museums but they were closed for the holiday today. I think it was 500 yen for entry. There was a free stamp inside the left hand sides store back at the bottom of the trail, across from the main tourist center. We went to the main restaurant behind the parking lot. It had an amazing view of the mountain. The staff gave us an English menu, we were seated right away, they spoke a bit of English. It was literally the best curry and rice I’ve ever had in my whole life. I’d go back just for the curry. The final stop was at Tsumagojuku. It was a cute little village with lots of pretty streets. It was getting cold and snowy. Most places were closed by the time we got there at 3 but that also could have been the holiday. They had a museum that was open for 500 yen but we didn’t have time to go in. We stopped at the tourist center and got 4 different stamps. They look so cool and are huge. We did stop in at a gift shop where we bought a cute wooden looking postcard. The clerk also spoke a little English. Everyone was so nice. It was snowing all the way down the mountain and looked so pretty. We got back to Nagoya station by 5:20 pm. We will definitely do this trip again in the spring or fall. We had a great time.
The guides did their best in three languages, but the Japanese language was clearly short and I had a feeling that they were edgy. However, it was meaningful to be able to talk to Chinese people because we went on a tour with a lot of Chinese people. Umakago, Tsumakago, I think I wanted more time to have fun. I just saw the cityscape.
ありがとうございます。またご参加をお待ちしております。
Had some difficulty meeting up with the tour because there was no signage. After the initial hiccup, was fine. The postal towns were quiet. Not many tourists around.
