"We had a wonderful tour with Selda in Kanazawa. She was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions. The tour went at a nice pace. We learned so much about Kanazawa. Also, Selda gave us recommendations for places to visit after our tour. This tour is highly recommended! Thank you Selda!"

"Selda kindly met us at our hotel lobby and took my husband and me to the two geiko (term for geisha in Kanazawa) neighbourhoods by way of the Omichyo markets. Before the trip, she had great comms with us and understood what we wanted to focus on doing the hidden highlights trip. She was easy going, thoughtful and professional. Her understanding of the local history, past and present, is excellent. Great “behind the scenes” tour of the Sakuda gold leaf workshop. Brilliant!! (Selda is a fluent in Japanese, English & Tagalog). Highly recommend this personal tour, even for intrepid travellers! "

"Raphaël is an absolutely awesome guide and host. He is very friendly, knowlegable, considerate and was very accomodating to last minute issues we were having with regards to the schedule. He showed us around at a brisk but comfortable pace, and told us things that we likely would never have found out about if we were on our own. I highly recommend Raphaël and if we are ever back, we would gladly do another tour with him."

"Our group of five had an amazing day with Raph in Kanazawa. He was accommodating to our needs… it snowed during our tour and we were not prepared being from San Diego. Raph is flexible, fun and answered all our questions. He met us at our hotel lobby fo introductions and to get to know our group. We had a great five hour tour of the samurai district, Kanazawa castle and the gardens all in a snow storm. What a day! Thanks Raph!"

"The best guide ever⭐️"

"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 "

"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."

"My son and I wanted a good introduction to Kanazawa for our first visit to the city and Selda certainly provided it. She was very informative and knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Would highly recommend!"

"Raphael was a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable, attentive, flexible and organized. He made sure the tour was tailored to our interests and explained everything in details. He has a good sense of humor and we had a really interesting and fun time with him!"

"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!"
