9 Private tours & activities

Lucy was very accommodating of our young family and tailored the experience so all of us had things to look forwards to. The gold leaf workshop was fun for us as well as eating gold leaf ice cream from the shop it was invented! The historical districts were amazing. We really appreciated Lucy’s time and efforts with our family.

Raphael was so patient with our group, and he fully customized our tour to meet our interests and needs. He is genuinely a wonderful person. You cannot go wrong choosing him as your guide! 10 stars!!!

We wanted to know more about Samarai, Geisha's and the history of Japan during the Edo period, and Raphael was a wealth of knowledge as we toured the Samarai District. He also cheerfully answered all of our questions about everyday life in today's Japan. And showed us where to find the best coffee in Kanazawa! I would highly recommend Raphael if you want an informative tour.

Raph was an absolute pleasure! He communicated with us immediately after booking (we booked last minute!) and tailored our tour based on our timing, interests and then suggested our route on our own for the next day. We learned so much that we never would have known. He is a fun person to be around. I would give 11 stars if I could :).

Three weeks into our travels in Japan this was a great way to enjoy a nice walk, in nature, and away from the crowds. Lucy was very relaxed, flexible and also knowledgeable about the area. As an expat herself she gave some interesting insights to life in Japan and Kanazawa.

Raphaèl est tres attentif à repondre à toutes les questions avec précision et anecdotes. Par son intermédiaire nous avons perçu la culture japonaise et découvert de bonnes adresses à Kanazawa.

This was the first time I organised a private tour, totally appreciated it and will do it again. Selda was on time, helpful, easy-going & very informative & may I add very compromising when I mixed up the times. It was really worthwhile doing it this way. I would highly recommend!! A big thank you to Selda.

Selda is a very pleasant person and fantastic tour guide. She accommodated our requests and tailored the tour to our needs. Selda is very knowledgeable of all the places we visited and of course the Japanese culture. She also helped us with dinner table reservations in excellent restaurants. I can highly recommend a guided tour with Selda.

Selda is an eloquent and knowledgeable guide who helped us make the most of our all too short visit to this lovely city. She has a lot of historical knowledge but is also easy to chat with about present-day Japan. She has good restaurant tips and even helped us make a reservation.

Before we even met her, she gave us a great suggestion for dinner. Criselda took us to the highlights of Kanazawa. She explained the history, culture and her favorites. We covered a lot of ground but it felt personal and relaxed. She was patient and engaged. Trust all of her recommendations.
