My husband and I enjoyed the tour very much. Our local tour guide (so sorry I couldn’t recall her name) was very caring and informative. She made Nagoya castle more meaningful with all the little details and stories. She also helped us to take some amazing photo with cherry blossom. And she took us around with subway and bus which you can see how Nagoya people go about their life. Toyota museum was amazing too. Highly recommend!

Besides us, who is more excited to see Nagoya Castle and the Toyota Commemorative Museum? Our guide Yama-san! If you want to see Nagoya Castle and the Toyota Museum in a half a day, you need a knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide like Yama-san. Nagoya Castle’s moats and stone foundation works are truly beyond imagination. How do you move stones that large to form a perfect arc foundation without mortar? If we didn’t have Yama-san, we wouldn’t have known about the castles ninja defenses. The Toyota Museum is very large and covers everything from textiles to car design; you could spend a whole day there if you wanted to. If you are into textiles or cars, the Toyota Museum is a fascinating experience especially with our tour guide Yama-san being a 30 year veteran of the Toyota company. His English was very good and he was very helpful in navigating the transportation system to get us to our destinations. We would highly recommend taking this half day tour with Yama-san! He is a wonderful guide.

Overall tour was good but was surprised that it was not the tour to the Samurai Museum since it was stated as the title of the trip. Miss Mayuko is very friendly and attentive.
