It was a great experience and because of the early start (8am) we had a quiet and pleasant experience ahead of the incoming (other) tourists. Great way to learn about the history of Kanazawa, its crafts and typical food specialties. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had great suggestions to do by ourselves the rest of the day.

We really enjoyed the tour. Selda suggested to start early at 8am and because of that we could walk without a lot of other tourists around. The houses she showed us were beautiful and when we were done visiting the groups came in. We were very lucky because she knew how to manage that and give us the best experience. She also gave us good suggestions to do by ourselves in the afternoon.

Our guide Chris spoke English really well, she took our wishes into account, told fascinating stories during the tour and she had or look up answers to all our questions. Apart from that Chris proved to be a very sociable person. Highly recommended, absolutely!

Akari was our private tour guide in Kanazawa. She was wonderful and very helpful. We asked to go through a specific Samurai house and she added it to our itinerary and shared many interesting things about the history with us. She was patient and great with our 14 and 10 year old children. We also asked for many recommendations and she was able to help us. Thank you very much for accommodating us!

Our guide Criselda was brilliant. She took us to several geisha districts and a samurai district, where she provided interesting historical context. Whilst walking she shared cultural insights about Japan - including about their everyday lives. Criselda also pointed out some great restaurants and shops. Overall it was a fantastic experience - Criselda is a thoughtful and intelligent guide!

We loved our guide Criselda - she shared so much information about the history of Kanazawa but also about Japanese culture and culture and way of life. She is so intelligent and full of insights.
