I'd take Takayama. But then I could be prejudiced because it was always one of my favorite vacation spots as a kid. As its nickename "Little Kyoto" suggests, it has a lot to offer to the tourist.
Kiso/Magome/Tsugamo are nice for the nature lover but they developed as posting stations rather than a regional center and therefore lack the refined feel and beauty that Takayama has.
If your schedule allowed it, you may go to both. You might actually like the contrast itself.
