Kanazawa Tour Reviews
Penelope L.
“Fantastic Family tour with terrific guide”
We had an absolutely fabulous day with Richard in Kanawaza. For our family of five, travelling around in taxis or PT is difficult. Richard picked us up literally metres from our cruise ship and travelling around with him was a breeze. We saw considerably more with Richard and his van than would have been possible on our own. Richard entertained us with interesting info about Japan, Kanawaza and life in Japan as a Westerner. It was great having him to take family photos and point out the best places to see, short cuts to make our day efficient and tips on what and where to eat. Should we ever visit Kanawaza again, Richard would be the first person we would call. 100% recommend.

Hi Penny, Thank you so much for your kind words and review. I had a great time with you and your family. You were all a delight to spend time with, get to know, and have a laugh with. It felt like I was showing friends around Kanazawa. Thank you to you and your family for being such a pleasure to be around. I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip, manage to find some Pokémon cards, and enjoy the sake! Warm regards, Richard

“A fantastic one-day tour to Shirakawa-go, Gokayama, and Ainokura”
Richard guided us through the UNESCO World Heritage villages for a day, and we liked the small village of Ainokura best. He told us a lot about the history and daily life in the villages. We really enjoyed our time with him.

Hi Anton, Many thanks for your review and your kind words. I very much enjoyed showing you and your family around the villages and getting to know you all. I hope the rest of your trip in Japan was enjoyable. Warm regards, Richard

“Great over view of the Noto peninsula with a focus on the Senmaida rice terraces. ”
Richard was a terrific guide. Knowledgeable about the region and its attractions and super accommodating for the interests of our (fairly eclectic) group. Covering the natural beauty of the coast, the history, and the religious sights he brought it all together. That he recommended an amazing sushi place for lunch did not hurt either. I’d recommend Richard highly and will certainly call on his services again if I’m back in the area.
