About Tour Guide Yukari S.
Hi! I'm Yukari.
I'm a government licensed guide of Kanazawa city.(Kanazawa Visitor's Host)
I was originally born and raised in Toyama prefecture.
I had moved 2 times within Hokuriku region in my childhood for my fathers job.
I've been living in Ishikawa for 16 years in total.(4years in my childhood and 12years since I married. )
I have a family of 4.
I'm raising 2boys and have 2dogs.
I love animals, nature, music, photos, camping, and good food.
So if you feel that I might have a similar taste with you, my tour will bring you a satisfied explore.
Here in Kanazawa, tourists have been increasing in number since the opening of Hokuriku Shinkansen in 2015. Many of foreign tourists are walking around throughout the city holding their smartphone by hand.
Every time I see those people, I felt that I might be able to do something which make their trip more memorable.
This is the reason why I took the license of Kanazawa Visitor's Host and started a local tour guide.
Although I've just started as a tour guide in 2018,I sincerely enjoy making a personalized plan that every single guest would be able to make the day here in Kanazawa perfectly.
I have ever lived in
Toyama, Fukui, Ishikawa, Chiba, Tokyo (Japan),and Toronto (Canada).
I have ever been to USA (Seattle, LA, CA, NY) Australia (Cairns) New Zealand(Auckland) Korea, China, and Canada (many cities).
Let's go for Kanazawa tour just for you!

“Best guide in Kanazawa - highly recommended ”
We visited Kanazawa in Nov 2024. If you are looking for a local guide who is knowledgeable, flexible and with great communication skills you don’t need to look any further. We had other guides in Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka but Yukari is the best. She went out of her way to make restaurant reservations and took us to Yamanaka which was not part of the original tour plan.

“Beautiful Kanazawa (even in the wet!)”
Thanks Yukari for a lovely day around Kanazawa. Despite the weather not being the best it didn't dampen the experience. It even added to the armtnosphere at times. I appreciated your knowledge, preparation and company. It is always a pleasure to get the insights of a local, adding context, history and meaning to sightseeing. I would highly recommend anyone planning on visiting Kanazawa to spend some of your time there with Yukari.
