Kanazawa Private Car Tours

“Kanazawa Area”

Yoji, pick this up and drove us out to the Thatch homes, And then took us out to Takayama community we enjoyed a lovely lunch and his knowledge of Japan is incredible. It was one of the highlights of our 24 days of being in Japan. Yoji, has lots of energy and wants to accommodate your needs while visiting Japan. I highly recommend a tour with Yoji. Fondly, Keith and Lisa Stone

““Unbearably” amazing experience ”

We had a wonderful day exploring the amazing world heritage villages around Shirakawa-go. Richard was a well-prepared informative and interesting guide, whose enthusiasm was infectious and who had a boundless patience and understanding when my autistic daughters became overwhelmed. He took our safety seriously and wore his bear bell at every stop. We felt like we had spent the day with a friend.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was wonderful spending the day with you all in Shirakawa-go and Gokayama. You are a lovely family with a great sense of humour, and you made the day feel more like an outing with friends than a tour. I am glad you enjoyed the bell. It certainly helps to keep things bearable, even when the mountains get lively! I hope you enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan, and please do not hesitate to reach out if you need any help or advice. Warm regards, Richard

“Very enjoyable half day with Richard”

Richard is one of the most informative and knowledgeable tour guides that we had the pleasure to spend time with. The tour was tailored to our request, with Richard driving us to certain locations. Hearing his firsthand knowledge of local culture as a Brit with a Japanese family living in Kanazawa was invaluable. We would highly recommend him for your tailored tour. Valérie and Mike
