Hi there! I'm Megumi, your friendly local host here in Kanazawa. One of my favorite things about Kanazawa is discovering hidden gems in our food scene. From cozy eateries serving mouthwatering dishes to cozy cafes tucked away in charming alleys, I know just the spots to satisfy your taste buds without breaking the bank. When cherry blossom season arrives, you'll often find me strolling along rivers and through parks, soaking in the beauty of the blossoms. It's a magical time to be in Kanazawa. As a local guru, I take pride in knowing the ins and outs of Kanazawa's neighborhoods. Whether you're looking for off-the-beaten-path restaurants or scenic walking routes that showcase the city's uniqueness, I've got you covered. So, if you're ready to explore Kanazawa like a true local, let's embark on an adventure together! See you soon.
What a delight it was to tour Kanazawa with Megumi! She is so knowledgeable about the area, Japanese traditions, and culture and gave our group flexibility to be on our own schedule for what was important for us. Wear your good walking shoes! We highly recommend touring with Megumi!!

Our guide Megumi was FANTASTIC. She had an amazing route to visit all the main sites of Kanazawa, and she was able to share the history and facts of each place we visited. I would highly recommend booking this tour and requesting Megumi as a guide.

Highly recommend the private tour. It doesn’t cost much more than a normal tour for a family of four and you can spend more time talking with your guide. Megumi was fantastic. She was personable and very knowledgeable about the attractions in Kanazawa. Would highly recommend.
