好，以下是很適合直接貼在 Klook 的英文評論版本（語氣自然、五星感、不過度浮誇）： I surprisingly had a wonderful experience on today’s Kanazawa tour. Our guide was extremely humorous, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. He patiently answered all of my questions and turned them into interesting and enjoyable discussions. He also shared many authentic local recommendations — and even take me to a truly local delicious curry! Highly recommend requesting Gary and his professional team. They made the tour memorable and genuinely enjoyable.
What a very informative tour especially with Danial as our guide. Danial was very knowledgeable about the areas and provided many interesting facts that you would never know without a guide. I would highly recommend the tour and I suggest you request Danial.
