Fun and informative tour of Kanazawa
"Yoji was an excellent guide. Fun, easy going, chatty with good English. He was very flexible and was happy to adjust the tour according to what we wanted to see, and avoid areas we had already been to. He combined a good mix of information about Kanazawa and its history, current Japanese lifestyle and politics, showed us interesting areas and buildings, the market, Samurai house, Geisha district, and also popped into the occasional shop to tell us about local products. Highly recommended "

Perfect day!
"We had an incredible tour with Raphaël in Kanazawa. He took the time to understand what we wanted to see and tailored the entire experience perfectly. His knowledge of the city’s history and cultural importance is exceptional, and we walked away with so much insight after just three hours. He is warm, engaging, and a natural storyteller. We only wish we had more time with him."

Amazing Tour!
"We had an amazing, informative, and fun tour with Selda in Kanazawa. From the Geisha district to the Samurai houses to Omicho Market, Selda was a joy to be around and gave us both a great history lesson and insider info, especially when it came to her favorite stalls at the market. 10/10 recommend!"
"Our tour in Kanazawa with Selda was a wonderful experience. It was both interesting and highly informative, giving us a much deeper understanding of the city’s history and culture. Selda was very knowledgeable and engaging, sharing many insights and details that we would never have discovered on our own. We truly appreciated her passion for Kanazawa and her warm, friendly approach throughout the tour.
Highly recommended to anyone wanting to explore Kanazawa beyond the surface!"
