Travel in comfort through some of Japan’s most spectacular mountain scenery as you visit two of the region’s most iconic destinations: Shinhotaka Ropeway and Kamikochi.

Your journey begins with a private pickup from your chosen location.

Stroll along the Azusa River, admire the famous Kappa Bridge, and immerse yourself in the natural beauty that has made Kamikochi one of Japan’s most beloved nature destinations.

Along the way, enjoy the flexibility and comfort of a private vehicle, allowing you to explore at your own pace. There will also be time to stop for lunch at a local restaurant (meal not included), where you can sample regional cuisine while surrounded by beautiful alpine scenery.

Whether you are visiting during the fresh greenery of spring, the vibrant colours of autumn, or the clear mountain days of summer, this private tour offers an unforgettable journey through the heart of the Japanese Alps before returning comfortably to your original pickup location in Kanazawa or Takayama.
