About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- davegoodrich0 contributionsExcellent tour with PierreIt was our first time in Japan and we decided to have a tour guide for our first day in Kyoto. Pierre was very nice, guiding with patience and enthusiasm. He shows us many beautiful temple that was not in any guide book, and we could feel a zen atmosphere. We realize after three days here, that it is not so easy to find beauty and calm in this really touristic city, Pierre knew those unknown temple, this is why we definitely recommend him.Written 11 June 2018

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The scenery is outstanding and well worth the walk. It is presented as an easy walk but I believe it is for those who are quite physically fit as the walk from Nakatsugawa to Magome is mostly uphill- steep in some areas for a sustained time. A hiking stick would be helpful and runners are suitable footwear. We carried back packs (keep them light) with our necessities and drinking flasks. The route from the rail station to out of town is somewhat confusing and there are many turns until you actually begin on the flecked gravel road. Thankfully we passed hikers travelling in the opposite direction who assisted. We stayed in an Inn (which was booked for us by an agent) and it was quite basic, the meal being adequate (inform of any allergies). Day 2 was more picturesque and downhill for part of the way. Stop at the teahouse for a pleasurable green tea (small donation). On completion, transport from Tsumago is limited so you may be waiting an hour or two for a bus. Be prepared for a vigorous and beautiful walk.

Hi - am coming down from Tokyo and planning to do the 2D trek. What is the appropriate timing and train/Shinkansen to/from Tokyo?

Hi is it possible to do this walking tour in the winter months.. obviously it will be cold and slippery, and not as pleasant as in water months, but just wondering if it is still possible in January (weather permitting)

Hi, will our luggage be forwarded to our destination or will we need to carry our full packs the whole way?
Written 11 August 2019
Teenagers above 12 can easily do it but below that age I would not recommend

Hi there, we are a group of 4 adults wanting to do a 3day / 2night Nakasendo self guided walk.
Are you able to offer or arrange this for us, or is it something we can easily arrange ourselves. We would begin in Tokyo and finish in Kyoto. It would be for September this year.

Just wanted to do the walk between Magome and Tsumago. Can we simply do this on an ad-hoc basis or is some sort of guided tour necessary?
