About Tour Guide Haru G.
Thank you for considering me as your guide! I am excited to become not just your guide, but your friend as we explore Kanazawa together—a city where rich cultural traditions seamlessly blend with modern vibrancy.
Being a native of Ishikawa Prefecture, with Kanazawa as its heart, I have a deep connection to this place. Though I spent several years living in New York, I’ve always carried the spirit of Japan with me. Upon returning to Japan, I immersed myself in the travel industry, gaining over a decade of experience and obtaining my guiding license in 2017 while working for successful inbound travel agencies.
My time abroad has given me a profound appreciation for Japan’s uniqueness, and my passion for sharing its beauty and culture with travelers has only grown stronger. Now, I am eager to share that enthusiasm with you as we explore Japan together, uncovering hidden gems and experiencing its timeless charm.

“100% Recommendation”
Haru was welcoming, friendly and guided us very well throughout the whole day. She was very considerate (f.e. pointing out nearby restrooms, where to shop souvenirs) and made sure to fulfill our request to have crab meat for lunch at Omicho Market and even gave us recommendations for suhsi dinner options (It was very delicous!). Haru spoke english very well, the day was planned good and she was spontaneous, when needed. We saw everything we wanted within this 7 hour walking tour of Kanazawa. Thank you Haru for your tour and wishing you all the best!

“Wonderful day with Haru”
We had a fabulous day touring the Kanazawa area with Haru. She was very organized and made prior reservations for us to do activities that we really enjoyed. She is extremely sweet and has an excellent command of the English language. Haru went out of her way to make certain that we enjoyed our day. We very highly recommend her for your tour.

“A kind and attentive guide who made us feel welcome”
We spent one and a half days touring Kanazawa with Haru and truly appreciated her punctuality and sense of responsibility. When we arrived at our ryokan on the first day, she was already there waiting for us, which made us feel very welcomed and well taken care of. Haru was knowledgeable about the main sights, and she made sure we were comfortable throughout the tour. Overall, it was a pleasant and enriching experience. We’re grateful both to Haru and to GoWithGuide for making this connection possible.
