Regarding vehicle choice with 3 people:

Please understand that with a regular taxi, all three people would need to sit together in the rear seat (with the driver and guide sitting in the front seats). Though a regular taxi is designed to allow 3 people to sit in the rear seat, we usually recommend doing so only if your group has 3 smaller adults, or if one person is a child.

With three larger adults we recommend using our jumbo van, which has much more space and comfort.

**Please explain your vehicle preference in the Message Box below. Thank you.

Sorry, but we are not avilable for Guided Tours from December 27, 2024 to February 28, 2025.

During this time it is possible to arrange a Taxi Only Tour by contacting Kazurabashi Taxi Co. directly through their website >>

Please understand that during winter months (December 1 - March 31) some sights are closed for the season.

During this time the Oku-Iya Double Vine Bridges are closed, so we will visit the main Kazurabashi Vine Bridge and Biwa Waterfall instead. Some historic houses are also closed, but we can usually include one historic house which is open at this time.

Also, the Mt Tsurugi chairlift is closed for these winter months, and some of our tours are not possible at this time, including the Architecture Tour, the Yama Yoga Tour, the Etegami Workshop Tour, and all Hiking Tours.

Sorry, but we only take reservations up to 6 months (183 days) in advance .

If you wish, you can still contact us for general information for tours happening more than 6 months from now, but please understand that we can not take such a booking yet.

Thank you for your consideration.
