Our local guide was excellent, and the overall experience was very comfortable. The places we visited were explained in great detail. Lunch was a unique experience, served in a 300-year-old gassho-zukuri house, and the food was delicious. It was a truly special experience. We also had the chance to try the famous Shirakawa-go pudding this time! Not having to worry about lunch or transportation made this a perfect trip to enjoy with family or a partner.

Beautiful walk, well-maintained areas. My two boys, aged 11 and 13, enjoyed the place and searching for key points on the map. Recommended.

This hotel has a great design, though it's a bit far from the main streets. The beds are on the softer side, and the lighting is more atmospheric than bright. However, the overall value for money is excellent.

The hotel room is very spacious and new, offering excellent value for money. It's about a 15-minute walk from Kanazawa Station. If you're driving, the hotel doesn't have its own parking, but there are many paid parking lots nearby, costing around 700-800 Yen per night.

The itinerary was relaxed and easygoing, with plenty of time to explore at a leisurely pace. There weren't too many uphill paths, making it suitable for children and seniors. Both the tour guide and the bus driver were very professional. We were completely satisfied and felt secure throughout the entire trip.
