We found a carpark on google maps quite close to the centre of town on the day we left as we wanted to keep exploring after checkout. Many hotels and ryokan will have parking or will be able to help you find one if staying overnight, as ours did. Have fun! It's such a beautiful drive! 😍
Hi Mya. The roads is Japan are excellent and drivers are very courteous. Even if you take your time driving you shouldn't encounter impatient people, so you can relax and get used to driving on the other side of the road! :)
Thanks for this video! Would anyone know if this route will have any snow during early December or does it look like a busy route? Planning our drive from Takayama to Matsumoto in early December.
Very interesting to see the countryside. The autumn colours are wonderful. I was surprised to see how mountainous it was. :)
We’re planning to drive to Takayama as well! Do you happen to know the parking situation in Takayama?

@@NekoAshiJapan thanks so much for the helpful tips!
How did you find the road? we are planning the same route with one minor concern we’ve never driven on the other side and we will have a mini van.
