About this experience

Takayama Inari Shrine is famous for its thousands of Shinto Torii Gates. Real insta-worthy shrine. *** You need to walk up and down 90 steps of stairs. You can go slope.*** This tour includes transportation service (guide's car.) It is difficult to go this shrine only by public transportations. So this tour is the best to visit Takayama Inari shrine. You can also visit JR Kizukuri station which is famous for its insta-worthy Jomon figurine shape. Lastly, we will visit Tsurunomai-Hashi bridge. Please walk across the bridge and take nice photo with Mt. Iwaki which is beautiful with its volcanic shape single peeked mountain. *** Additional info **** This tour is up to 3 guests, because the car I can provide is a small car. But if you are 4 guests including one or more child who is younger than 10 years old, it will be ok with four guests. Three people should be packed in the back seat. In this case please let me know.
