"Selda gave us a wonderful tour round Omicho market a few days ago. She found out what we like in advance and made the tour to suit us perfectly. She was knowledgeable about many different aspects of Japanese food and cuisine. We had such interest conversations with her about food and culture and we enjoyed our walk through the former geisha district also. Selda is a warm and friendly guide with excellent English. "
"We were really looking forward to our dinner tour with Monse and I must say that it certainly didn’t disappoint.
Monse has high energy and she is very social - a perfect fit for a party of 4 Australians.
She introduced us to some fabulous restaurants and we were able to enjoy Kanazawa food at its best.
We would recommend Monse to anyone wanting to experience the best of Kanazawa. "
"This is our first trip to Kanazawa, although not our first trip to Japan.
Lucy met us at our hotel and asked us if we had any particular things that we would like to see and do in Kanazawa.
As per our request, she took us to both the Geisha and Samurai districts.
Lucy was very friendly and easy to talk to. Her knowledge of the area was excellent and she made the whole experience both educational and enjoyable. She was exactly what we were looking for in a local expert.
Our whole group of 4 were thrilled with the experience and we would have no hesitation in recommending Lucy to anyone interested in learning more about Kanazawa and the region in general."
"This was the first time I organised a private tour, totally appreciated it and will do it again. Selda was on time, helpful, easy-going & very informative & may I add very compromising when I mixed up the times. It was really worthwhile doing it this way.
I would highly recommend!!
A big thank you to Selda."
"Selda is a very pleasant person and fantastic tour guide. She accommodated our requests and tailored the tour to our needs. Selda is very knowledgeable of all the places we visited and of course the Japanese culture. She also helped us with dinner table reservations in excellent restaurants. I can highly recommend a guided tour with Selda."
"Selda is an eloquent and knowledgeable guide who helped us make the most of our all too short visit to this lovely city. She has a lot of historical knowledge but is also easy to chat with about present-day Japan. She has good restaurant tips and even helped us make a reservation. "

First visit to Kanazawa
"I was visiting Kanazawa on my own. Raphael was interested to know where my interests lay and adapted our three hour tour accordingly. Raphael has lived locally for a number of years, clearly understands the Japanese way of living, and the country’s and Kanazawa’s history. Not only did I learn a great deal over the tour but Raphael also directed me to other sites I might want to visit over the remainder of my stay, and recommended a number of restaurants. "

A terrific introduction to Kanazawa
"Before we even met her, she gave us a great suggestion for dinner.
Criselda took us to the highlights of Kanazawa. She explained the history, culture and her favorites. We covered a lot of ground but it felt personal and relaxed.
She was patient and engaged.
Trust all of her recommendations. "
"We enjoyed a lovely afternoon exploring Kanazawa with Nuria. She showed us some interesting sights which we would have never found ourselves as well as sharing lots of interesting facts about the city with us. We had a really lovely time and would recommend the tour! "
"Monse was an amazing guide! We covered most of Kanazawa in 3 hours. She was fantastic with my three kids and super helpful, capturing many family photos. It felt like a small town and she knew a lot of the people along the way. She was full of knowledge about the history and the hidden gems . One of the most organized and thorough tours I've been on - fantastic!"
