A great tour!

This was a great tour. Shirakawa-go is a very interesting and beautiful place to visit. We went on a nice sunny spring day. Aiko was a wonderful tour guide! Thanks!

Great experience

Published on May, 2025

I had an excellent experience with this company during my trip to Kanazawa. I joined two tours with them: one to the charming historic village of Shirakawa-go, and another around Kanazawa city, including the stunning Kenrokuen Garden and the beautiful Geisha district (Higashi Chaya-gai). The highlight of both tours was our guide, Yasushi, who provided outstanding service from beginning to end. He was attentive, punctual, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind. His detailed explanations, engaging stories, and warm personality made the experience even more memorable. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to explore the region with comfort, excellent organization, and a personal touch that truly enhances the journey!

Worth it!

Very nice experience Aiko did a really good job and provided so many tips for the whole Japan trip. The excursion is very worth it and fun and very well planned. Thanks Aiko! Sayonara

Best experience while in Kanazawa!

Published on Apr, 2025

Aiko is the best tour guide my husband and I have ever had. And we travel all over the world! She was so cheerful, engaging, had prepared useful and entertaining facts to share with us. And did a great job sharing all the other tours the company she works for offers. I would have booked more tours through her but unfortunately I booked them all before I came to Japan. Definitely suggest this tour as it made Kanazawa much more interesting for us…best part of our 4 day Kanazawa trip! Such a beautiful place to visit with unique traditional houses and amazing scenery. Don’t miss out! And ask for Aiko!
