Lucy was a great guide for an 8 hour tour and our family of 5 (college and high school kids) had a great experience. She is from France originally and has lived here for 6 years and has an interesting perspective of what life is like and a very thorough understanding of history of the area. She is thoughtful and very intelligent and we really enjoyed her in-depth explanation of many aspects of the city: garden, geisha life, sumarai, castle, gold leaf craft, craft museum, ninja museum. Weather was rainy and cold but the 8 hours flew by since we were all very interested in what she showed us and this beautiful and interesting city

Wonderful time in Kanazawa
Monse was a fountain of information and we had a great time albeit that it was a rainy day. Would highly recommend her as guide to anyone visiting Kanazawa. 1-2-3 and pictures taken as a great memory of our visit.

Thank You, Lucy!
We spent a full day with Lucy exploring Kanazawa. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and super accommodating (which was particularly important because we were traveling with an infant). I also loved hearing about her experience living as an expat in Kanazawa - highly recommend!

Great time in Kanazawa
Lucy is incredibly well versed in not Kanazawa but generally in japanese history and culture and can casually explain all I ever wanted to know about this wonderful and fantastic country. I had a great time exploring the city with her and can recommend the experience when you are interested in learning about the rich culture.
