“History and Highlights!”

We had a great time with Criselda. She was very informative and flexible with our family and are interests. We learned a lot about the city and the history behind the region and the castle. She was amazing!! Thank you again for everything and making our time in Kanazawa memorable!

“Full Day Kanazawa Highlights Tour”

Naoto was an outstanding guide and made our time in Kanazawa both enjoyable and memorable. He was punctual, friendly, and professional from start to finish. His knowledge of the city’s history, culture, and local traditions was extensive, and he shared it in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. Throughout the tour, Naoto was informative, helpful, and always happy to answer our questions. His communication before and during the tour was excellent, making everything smooth and stress-free. We appreciated how well-organized he was and how he tailored the experience to our interests while making sure we saw the highlights of Kanazawa. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and personable guide, we highly recommend Naoto. He helped us gain a much deeper appreciation for Kanazawa, and we would gladly book another tour with him in the future.

Dear Scott and Jose, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a generous and thoughtful review! I am truly honored by your kind words. It was an absolute privilege to guide you through Kanazawa. As fellow educators, I deeply enjoyed our inspiring conversations and your intellectual curiosity about the strategic history and cultural nuances of our region. I am thrilled to hear that the tour helped deepen your appreciation for the city, from the samurai quarters to the hidden stories behind the gardens and temples. You were wonderful guests, and managing the day with you was smooth and completely stress-free for me as well. I hope your subsequent travels in Kansai were just as enriching! Should your travels bring you back to Japan in the future—perhaps to explore the pristine landscapes and deep-rooted cultures of Shirakawa-go or Toyama—I would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back. Thank you again, and I wish you all the very best in your university teachings and future adventures! Warmest regards, Naoto

“Kanazawa tour”

We had a fantastic tour with Rafael. He is incredibly knowledgeable and enlightened us on many subjects. He also pointed us out to one of his favorite restaurants & we loved it. Definitely one of the best on our whole trip. He also helped us secure our train tickets to our next destination and that was super helpful. Kanazawa was fantastic & we were very happy to have included 3 days there in our itinerary. Highly recommend both Rafael and Kanazawa!

Fantastic!! Wishing you three the absolute best back home and hope the overall experience in Japan would be one for your grandchild to keep close to heart for many years to come. Raphaël
