Highlights
  • Nagoya Castle - Nagoya Castle is right in the heart of Nagoya, and is very famous for its golden shachihoko (a mythical creature with a tiger’s head and carp’s body) figures on the roof. Ieyasu Tokugawa, the first shogun who established the Edo shougunate, built it in 1521. The main part of the castle was rebuilt after the war, and now you can climb to the top to feel like being a shogun to govern the country.

Fantastic Local Guide Made Our Day in Nagoya, Japan - My wife & I had a wonderful experience with our guide in Nagoya, Japan. Tomoko Tabata was the best guide we had in our 12 days of guided tours in Japan. She was very well prepared for the tour & used her iPad to provide helpful background info about Japanese history related to Nagoya Castle. Tomoko is an extremely knowledgeable, skilled and friendly guide who helped us understand what we were seeing in beautiful Nagoya. We will never forget our day among the cherry blossoms at Nagoya Castle.

Wonderful experience! - Loved this tour and you will too! Excellent historical significance. Some of the compound is original and the part that was destroyed in the war was meticulously rebuilt. Tour guide was very informative and friendly.

Yuumi-tour of Noritake museum and gardens in Nagoya! - Viator had seemed to struggle to find a guide for our half-day tour, but persevered and found our guide, Yuumi - and what a fabulous guide they found for us! We wanted just to cover the Noritake museum and gardens in our half-day in Nagoya and Yuumi had prepared pictures and diagrams to give us important context before we arrived on site and this made the tour a really great one! Yuumi had relevant explanations for any questions that we had and, as we found out a bit later, demonstrated her wealth of experience that she has in tour-guiding. All six of us were looking forward to our Noritake tour - Yuumi made it such an enriching, enjoyable and memorable tour - we cannot thank you enough for your care for us - thanks a million Yuumi!

Nagoya Walking Tour. - Had a fantastic walking tour with Enomoto Masatake (Matt). Were taught a great deal about Shinto beliefs and practices which have stood us in good stead when visiting other shrines. He was informative and made our trip easier by pre-purchasing subway tickets for us. The walking was not hard. Would thoroughly recommend this tour.
