Kickstart your trip to Kanazawa

Akari was fantastic! She showed me places off the beaten path and we stopped to do fun things not in the schedule. It was fun day! Thanks.

Jorge was excellent and so knowledgeable about eveything. It was great getting to know him along with the hidden gems in Kanazawa!

We loved everything about this tour. Rimi really understood the prompt and what we wanted to get out of it. As a local who grew up there, she knows the city like the back of her hand. She has lots of recommendations and really broight the history back to life. She pointed at many things that we wouldn't have seen or understood if we only had read a touristic guide. We loved, LOVED, Kanazawa, and our time with Rimi was definitely a big reason for it too. She was a lovely human and a knowledgeable guide. She also helped us with food recommendations and booking of the ninja temple. We regretted not doing a longer tour (we did 3 hours but could easily have gone for 6), but will definitely get back in touch when we come back.

We had a great tour with Megumi in Kanazawa. Megumi is very responsive and nicely tailored the tour to our wishes. She is very knowledgable and provided background and fun facts and we learned a lot about Geisha and Samurai. The recommendations for places to visit after the tour were excellent. We really enjoyed the serene beauty of the Zen (Suzuki) museum which we otherwise would not have visited. We can highly recommend Megumi as a guide.

Rimi was fantastic, we had a blast. She went beyond telling us historical facts and really brought them to life. We jad already visited many temples and sites of historical importance in our 3 weeks here, so we wanted something more personalized and less general. Rimi is the tour guide you want, regardless of what your expectations are: she will meet them. She is a kind, cultured and very human local from Kanazawa. She completely tailored the tour: we wanted something fast paced, centered around Kanazawa's peculiar history, with quirky facts and to get a deeper knowledge of how the people of this ciry used to live and evolved, to better understand the dynamics at play today. There was a lot of culture, laughs and fun. Rimi also was very helpful with recommendations (food, activities etc) and even helped us getting a booking for the Ninja castle! We only had three days in Kanazawa unfortunately, so this was such a great decision. She pointed at so many things that us, tourists, would not have noticed or understood on our own. She truly opened up our eyes when visiting the geiko and samurai quarters. We loved everything about it.

Megumi was such a fun and enthusiastic guide! We really enjoyed her sense of humor and learned a lot on our 2-hour walking tour. Perfect intro to Kanazawa!
