Kanazawa is one of the most beautiful castle towns in Japan. Visitors enjoy a magnificent castle building, beautiful Japanese garden and nostalgic 'chaya' district. In addition, you can enjoy very rare experience at the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art!! I'm sure you will have a wonderful time in Kanazawa.
Kanazawa Station or your hotel
Let's meet at Kanazawa station, which has beautiful red 'TAIKO-MON' gate.
Let's enjoy nostalgic and historical town in kimono if you like and enjoy a cup of green tea and Japanese sweet at 'Shima', or old house museum.
Let's enjoy lunch of 'Kaisen-don', or fresh seafood ball at the market! It's so delicious!! You can also enjoy shopping.
Kenroku-en Garden is one of the three most beautiful gardens, so you will have a relaxed and wonderful time there!
Let's enjoy strolling around castle park! You can see beautiful Japanese Castle and feel atmosphere of samurai drama.
Very modern and rare museum, and you can experience just like you are in the pool!!(Visitors can enter the pool interior from the Gallery 6, but don't worry…you don't wet at all!)
Say "good bye" here, I hope you enjoy my guided-tour!

(50 reviews)Thank you for an excellent review and nice comments! I'm happy to hear that. It was my pleasure to guide around Kyoto to you and your nice family! You all tried to listen to me even though too hot and humid weather. My precious memory with your family in Kyoto makes me happy. Thank you again for two wonderful days in Kyoto and iced coffee at Starbucks.
“A beautiful day in Takayama!”
Yuriko (also known as Lilly) was an amazing tour guide. She was so very knowledgeable about the history of Takayama and told interesting stories that we all enjoyed. Our family of 6 ranged in ages from 6 years to 70 years. I would highly recommend her as a guide and also recommend Takayama as a beautiful town to visit on your journey. Yuriko organised a lovely lunch and we enjoyed delicious food.
