Tourist attractions are ok, but this tour has captured the hearts of the guests the most. And above all, the best way to feel the real Japan is to blend in with the locals. I would like to introduce a few of the places where we usually spend extraordinary time. The highlight is an antique shop. It is wonderful rummaging through all the treasures, where you can make many purchases at bargain prices. But I will suggest several spots in that neighborhood, so please feel free to customize your own combination of these places. Depending on specific requests, we will also introduce spots not mentioned here. For example, if you lived in Nagoya's American village with the Occupation Forces after the war, and you would like to feel the atmosphere of those days, I can take you to related places. Please feel free to tell me anything!! E.g. acupuncture to relieve travel fatigue, a barbershop to get a haircut, or anything else. I will accompany you as much as possible.
