Kanazawa Tour Reviews

The quintessential tour guide.

Yoji is kind, personable, reliable, knowledgeable. This being my first visit to Japan, a visit to relatively remote Shirakawago, Suganuma and Ainokura inspired some trepidation for me. Commencing with the planning phase, with his quick response to request, flexibility to adapt the schedule, through his punctuality on the day of trip, through his willingness to make an addition to the itinerary on the day of the trip. His professionalism , dependability and kindness made for an outstanding experience for me. If a six star rating was possible , this would be one of those. Thank you Yoji!!

Gerald D.

Yoji K.

Thank you very much for such a great review! I had a great time with you yesterday. I enjoyed talking with you and knowing your perspective how you see Japan. I hope you enjoyed the day with me. Lucky that we could see some cherry blossoms during our days. Enjoy the rest of your trip in Japan!

Kanazawa Tour with Yoshie

We had so much fun today on our tour of Kawazana with Yoshie. Yoshie was instrumental in planning our day, researching options and offering sound advice and suggestions to tailor a fun day for us. We all had great time dressing up in Kimonos while Yoshie took photos and interpreted. It was a highlight of our Japan trip so far. Yoshie is knowledgeable and experienced. Highly recommend.

Yoshie K.

Hi Lenore, thank you so much for your warm review. I am glad that you all enjoyed the tour in Kanazawa, in particular, the time you walked around the historical district wearing Kimono. You all looked gorgeous in Kimono! Thank you again. Yoshie 

Excellent Trip

The trip with Yoji San is incredible from start to finish. He knows the area very well, has excellent driving skills, and goes the extra mile as a guide to customize the experience to your wishes and availability. He also knows great places to eat, which also adds to the experience. If you want, in addition to a great adventure, you'll have a good friendship with Yoji San. Highly recommended.
