    Akari was a wonderful tour guide. She made us feel right at home and meshed perfectly with my teenagers. We had a delightful and educational afternoon. I highly recommend Akari for this tour.

    Akari was a fantastic guide in Kanazawa! Super friendly, easy to talk to, and very knowledgeable. We spent four wonderful hours chatting about everything—from local culture to daily life in Japan. She gave us great tips on what to see and do. An unforgettable and enriching experience. Thank you, Akari!

    Akari was super friendly and gave me tips in advance like a best friend. The tour was extremely entertaining, funny, and informative. I felt very comfortable. The only downside was that it could have lasted two hours longer. The time flew by.
