Tailoring each experience to your wishes by locals who love their city
Kyoto who? Kanazawa – Kyoto’s lesser-known but equally magical cousin – is a perfectly preserved pocket of Japanese history and culture just waiting to be explored. Whether you have a full day, half a day, or three hours, our private tour guides in Kanazawa can’t wait to reveal their beautiful city’s best-kept secrets with travelers like you. Our private tour guides in Kanazawa are intimately familiar with every inch of their hometown, and they’ll help you experience Japan’s historic gem beyond tourist sights like Kanazawa Castle and the gorgeous geisha district. With a handpicked local host by your side, the city’s soul is yours to discover on private tours in Kanazawa.
Kanazawa may be known for attractions like the Nagamachi samurai district and the converted geisha houses of Higashi Chaya, but there’s so much more to be explored. You’ll uncover all its secrets with private tour guides in Kanazawa leading the way. Whether you jostle through Tatemachi street’s trendy shopping promenade, sample the famous croquettes at Omicho Market (it’s not called the “Kitchen of Kanazawa” for nothing), or see magical snapshots of the Japan of centuries ago, our private tour guides in Kanazawa will be sure to strike the perfect balance between highlights and hidden gems.
City Unscripted offers a range of diverse, exciting tours, and our private tour guides in Kanazawa won’t waste a second of your time on attractions you won’t absolutely love. Maybe you’ll want to squeeze in as many tourist sights as possible on a must-see experience, or uncover holes-in-the-wall and local haunts on a “Secret gems of Kanazawa” tour. Perhaps you’ll book our “Eat like a local in Kanazawa” experience, or maybe you’ll simply spend a full day with one of our private tour guides in Kanazawa exploring a mix of iconic sights and hidden gems you wouldn’t find in your guidebook.
If there’s one thing we know, it’s that no two travelers are the same. You could be a history buff who wants to move between attractions like the 17th-century Tentokuin temple and Kanazawa Castle, or maybe you’re a major foodie whose perfect day would be spent at restaurants, markets, and Rakugan sweet shops. That’s why our private tour guides in Kanazawa will create the perfect tour 100% personalized to you! All our private tours in Kanazawa are planned with your personality, passions, and travel style in mind – you can rest assured that with us, your dream day will come true.
Super guided tour experience, a good pace, very nice places, and rich in anecdotes. Thanks again to our guide.

Sho was an excellent tour guide for my son and I during our Japan vacation. He was personable, knowledgeable, and quite informative. We enjoyed our time with him immensely. Would recommend again. 10 out of 10.

Sho was an excellent tour guide! He was standing in the lobby with his name tag waiting for us as promised. He was knowledgeable, courteous, and entertaining. We absolutely enjoyed all of our time with him and would gladly take another tour with him again. 10 out of 10.

A great evening tour of a shrine, the Geisha district and neighboring areas. Loic frim France (having lived in Kanazawa for 15+ years) was knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend.
