Kanazawa Tour Reviews

Money Very, Very Well Spent...

We really can't say enough to recommend Raphael and his services as a guide to Kanazawa beyond saying it was one of the best decisions we made during our recent trip to Japan; Carol & I thank him from the bottom of our hearts! He was fun, knowledgeable, well-connected, personable, and an all-around interesting person to spend time with. His itinerary was curated, thoughtful, educational and designed to leave one with a tailored experience and deep appreciation for a truly wonderful city that's outside the typical Japanese city spotlight. We didn't realize it at the time, but Raphael's explanation of the role/influence of Maeda Toshiie paid huge dividends the rest of our trip and helped us connect many dots in our learning about Japan's history. And if spending 9+ hours with a fun guy learning about a fascinating city isn't enough, you can always ask Raphael about his views on coffee, izakayas, Japanese pancakes and Echizen cutlery -- as we did -- and he will deliver. Please do as we did and invest in a tour with Raphael. It will be a fond memory and money well spent.

Robin, Carol, Thank you SO much for this brilliant review. If I had wanted to write it for myself, I would not have done a better job. It was an absolute pleasure guiding you around, sharing some of Kanazawa's history, culture, arts, gastronomy and secrets & I am so glad you've truly enjoyed it! All the very best to you two! Hope to cross your paths again some day! Raphaël

Wonderful tour for our family in Kanazawa

Raphaël was a great guide for our family, customizing the tour to match our preferences and taking care to balance making it interesting for the adults and moving at a pace and with topics that were interesting for younger kids! He went out of his way to also accommodate an extra request of helping retrieve a left behind item for our daughter at a restaurant which made her day. Spending a morning with Raphaël is a great way to start your time in Kanazawa as he helps to orient you to the city and make recommendations that go beyond the tour as well.

Thank you so much, Michael! It was a real pleasure spending the morning with your family. I'm especially glad we could sort out the little restaurant adventure—moments like that make the day even more memorable. I hope you’ve had a fantastic rest of your trip in Japan. Thanks again for your kind words! Best, Raphaël
