Hello. Does anyone know if there is a guided day tour from Kanazawa to Shirakawa-go in May ? A Japanese guided tour would also suffice. Thanks.

No. Karuizawa is a small town whose population does not produce enough demand for travel tours to Shirakawago. Also, there is no easy way to travel between them. It will be very time-consuming to make a daytrip from Karuizawa to Shirakawago (unless you travel after spring 2015 when the shinkansen extension will make the trip consideably easier).

Thanks everyone for the replies. [Uji, everyone makes mistakes, so not an issue here at all - take it easy] I found this too : http://www.nouhibus.co.jp/english/shirakawago_kanazawa.htmlEither I join the guided tour (which seems quite expensive for 2 persons) or I go there on my own. Assuming I catch the 8.45am bus from Kanazawa, should I take the 1.50pm or 4.50pm bus from Shirakawa-go back to Kanazawa ? How many hours should I spend in Shirakawa-go for an enjoyable day ? Also, does anyone know how frequent is the shuttle bus to Shiroyama viewpoint and back ? Thanks.

went there this past november, took the 8:45 bus from Kanazawa and departed on the 14:00 bus to Takayama.
We explored one farmhouse, walked around most of the town enjoying the scenery, did a little shopping and had lunch. Alittle more time would have been nice as we did not get to go up to the lookout or visist the doboroku museum.
