“Yoji is EXACTLY what you want in a guide- A SUPERIOR experience”

We didn't know what to expect from Kanazawa and Yoji did a superb job of understanding what we wanted in a tour and tailoring our day to layer experiences that made us absolutely fall in love with Kanazawa. He is deeply knowledgeable, well planned, flexible and a joy to spend time with. I couldn't be more grateful that we chose Yoji as our guide. Thank you Yoji!

Thank you very much for such a great review and photos you shared. It was like yesterday. I had a wonderful time walking and chatting with both of you. When we met at the hotel, I didn’t feel we met for the first time. Let’s s stay in touch and see you again! Yoji

“Personalized and Unforgettable day trip from Tokyo”

We had a fantastic day trip to Kanazawa from Tokyo with Yoji. He tailored the tour to fit the time we had there. He picked us up by car, which made getting around Kanazawa so much easier given the limited time we had. Yoji speaks fluent English, which made communication easy, and his laid-back personality made the experience relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable. He was incredibly accommodating—my husband wanted to photograph the backstreets, and Yoji took us to some amazing hidden spots. He even went out of his way to spend extra time with us and helped us rebook our Shinkansen tickets back to Tokyo. Kanazawa is well worth the trip, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Japan. We did several private day tours during our stay, and our tour with Yoji was one of our favorites. If we’d had more time in Japan, we would have loved to book another tour with him to explore the surrounding areas that are only accessible by car. Side note: If you have the time, stop by the quaint shaved ice shop Yeti—the shaved ice was absolutely delicious! Thank you, Yoji!

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful comment for my review. I actually had a great time too and found myself wishing we had one more day together. Out of all the cities you could have chosen for your limited travel time, I’m truly grateful you picked Kanazawa—and that you chose me as your guide. The shaved ice shop was a great find! I’d love to try it myself next time, and with the weather getting warmer, I’m definitely planning to take more guests there. I hope this trip becomes a lasting and memorable experience for you. Again, thank you very much for giving me such a great time with you. Best regards, Yoji

“Awesome Guide!”

Having Yoji as our guide in Kanazawa was the best decision we made on this trip! My family and I was a group of 6 and were fortunate enough to have Yoji show us around the city. He was so accommodating, patient, caring, and informative. Originally the tour was a walking tour but we requested a private car and Yoji made it happen. We were able to fit in all the destinations we wanted to see and although it was a packed day, we did not feel rushed at all. Coming into Kanazawa, we did not have have much expectations and Yoji made this trip memorable. He walked with us to each site, gave us the history and info about each place, but also never once rushed us. He ate with us, he made reservations for dinner for us, gave us recommendations, I can go on and on. He understood what my family liked and did his best to accommodate us. He even found a local sushi restaurant to accommodate our group because we wanted a sit-down place to eat. At the market, we tried the fresh scallops -- it was soooooo delicious. He even bought us some fried puffer fish to try and paid it out of his own pocket. These were items we would have never tried had it not been for his suggestion. My 5 star review is just another of the same because how can anyone give him anything less? He is simply the best. Yoji, thank you so much for taking the time to show my family and I around your city. Thank you also for your kindness in helping us around the train station! We wish you and your family the best in your next endeavors!
