The artisan tour of Kanazawa was a highlight of our trip to Japan

Incredible tour! Our guide, Nozomi, was very fluent in English and an excellent storyteller. Very charismatic and funny, her personal anecdotes added a lot of vibrancy to our tour of the historical geisha districts. She was also kind enough to give us her contact info in case we have any other questions during our stay in Japan. 10/10 fantastic!

We are well traveled, have generally high standards and we were very happy with our tour. Time and money well invested learning about this amazing city!!

Fumi took us all over the place and exposed us to not only the culture but unique things like gold leaf ice cream … she was amazing !

It was wonderful. Nozomi was very knowledgeable, had terrific English and was a complete delight to spend time with. The dinner at the end of the waking tour was excellent- some of the best food we have had in Japan. A really delightful night. Very highly recommended!

The trip to the Noto Peninsula was memorable and turned out to be an unexpected highlight of our trip. Michiko helped bridge the cultural gap between us and the Japanese people we met on the tour. She made us feel like friends and colleagues, rather than tourists. We wondered why she was taking pictures herself, and we were pleasantly surprised when, several days later, we received a link from her to a beautiful photo & video album, with highlights of both trips. It was an unexpected gift of wonderful memories.
