Reviews of Our Kanazawa Experiences

Akari, our tour guide, was great. She is very funny and, despite her young age, she knew a lot and made the day unforgettable for us. Thank you, Akari!

Selda was an excellent guide. We highly recommend her if you are American for her strong English speaking ability. We were guided through the Samurai and Geisha districts on a rainy day. We also visited a few local shops, the Omicho market, and had a local lunch. We finished out with the Kenrokuen garden and castle wall. It feels like we packed a lot into a single day.
