“Great way to spend the day with a wonderful guide”

Our group met Yoji as planned at the cruise terminal and we promptly made our way through the countryside to Shirakawago. Although it was slightly rainy, it did not disappoint. We enjoyed all the activities of the day and also visiting Takayama and having a wonderful lunch. The scenery is so peaceful and well worth the trip from the coast. We would highly recommend Yoji as guide.

“A Wonderful Day in Kanazawa with Yogi!”

We had a wonderful day exploring Kanazawa with Yogi! He was an excellent guide for our group of 5 —informative, easy to understand, and very hospitable. He shared so much about the places we visited and helped us appreciate the city’s history and culture. Our tour included Kenrokuen Garden, Kanazawa Castle, the samurai residential district and Nomura Samurai House, and Higashi Chaya, the historic geisha district. We really enjoyed seeing the beautiful gardens, and exploring the castle and samurai houses was a highlight for me. Learning about how people lived and the culture of that time made these visits especially interesting. Higashi Chaya was also a very pleasant place to walk around, take in the atmosphere, and enjoy the traditional surroundings. The itinerary offered a lovely combination of history, culture, and beautiful scenery. Yogi’s warm hospitality and the information he shared made our day memorable. We felt very welcome and truly enjoyed having him introduce us to Kanazawa. We would highly recommend him to anyone visiting the city. Thank you, Yogi, for giving us such a wonderful day!

“Kanazawa: A great destination with an excellent guide”

The one-day tour of Kanazawa with Yoji K. is an excellent way to see the city's historical treasures. Kanazawa may not receive the same amount of press as Kyoto, but its historical sites are remarkably well-maintained. Because the major attractions are all within walking distance of each other, it is easy to see a lot of the city in a single day. In our opinion, the sites here are just as impressive as those in other major tourist destinations.Yoji is a knowledgeable and professional guide who shares interesting historical context at each stop along the way. In addition to the sightseeing, he introduced us to great local restaurants, including an excellent spot in the fish market to try the local seafood. He also provided helpful recommendations for other towns on our itinerary, one of which ended up being our favorite stop of our entire trip.
