Takayama’s old town is small enough to cross in an hour, but the stories take longer, and a private guide can open up the Jinya, the only Edo-era government office of its kind still standing. Some walks run at night with dinner, when the streets empty out.
Explore Takayama's historic charm on a 2-hour private walking tour. Visit Takayama Jinya, stroll Sanmachi Suji, and enjoy a sake tasting at a traditional brewery.
