The tour of Kanazawa was great! Mouri showed us many places and customized the tour to our liking. We were able to spend more time in the places we want and skip the areas we were not interested in. There is a lot of walking! So be prepared and wear good shoes!

Mo was very flexible and accommodating to our needs. We enjoyed our time with him and his interesting insights and perspective. He is definitely knowledgeable about ramen!

This was the highlight of my trip to Kanazawa!!! I was very lucky to meet Mouri. I had booked the tour to Shirakawa go in the day and only had the evening spare before heading to my next destination. I was a solo traveller trying to make the most of the city. Mouri was super flexible and took me on a full tour of his city to show me the most hidden gems. He is a fun but calming presence and has such passion for his city - it's contagious! It ended up being so much fun we overran our time and he even ended up staying to have dinner. Grateful to have met him :))) and felt more like a friend than a tour guide - would recommend a tour with him specifically for sure!
