About local Selda
18 April 2025

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.

Kanazawa Samurai District and market tour

Selda is an enthusiastic, kind and highly informative guide. We had a superb time visiting the Samurai district and the Omicho Market and even stopped to run an errand at a local department store. We highly recommend Selda, a delightful tour guide.

Walking in Kanasawa

We had a very enjoyable time on our walking tour with Monse . She is very knowledgeable about the history of the area. We had a private tour and she changed things a bit to suit us . She was enthusiastic and informative and we covered the main sights . We would certainly recommend her as a guide .
