Yuka was an amazing guide and we are very happy with her tour. She was able to adapt easily throughout the day to our special requirements and her local knowledge was invaluable.
Our private walking tour of Kanazawa was an unforgettable experience, made truly exceptional by our guide, Iku. As a lifelong citizen of Kanazawa, Iku’s deep knowledge of the city’s history and culture brought every stop on the tour vividly to life. One of the most memorable highlights was participating in a private tea ceremony, an intimate and beautifully conducted experience that gave us a meaningful glimpse into Japanese tradition. We also loved strolling through the historic geisha district and learning about its fascinating past, followed by a deeply moving visit to Hosen-ji Temple that left a lasting impression on us. The day continued with a peaceful walk through Kenroku-en Garden, where we were fortunate to see the plum blossoms in full bloom—an absolutely magical sight. Iku then guided us through the samurai district, sharing captivating stories about the history, traditions, and daily lives of the samurai families who once lived there. Beyond being incredibly knowledgeable.
